    Travel Award from Nationals

    So, I won Nats, sent the needed paperwork to Pokemon and haven't heard anything from them since. I'm just wondering if anyone from Europe has received e-mail about flights/hotels. I'll be going to USA in 3 weeks so I'm worried that I don't get my flights arranged fast enough. So, has anyone...

    This is my first English report so forgive my spelling errors. So here we go. After losing a top8 match in our Nats to a burn flip I was pretty frustrated and took a month long break from Pokemon. I built my Worlds deck almost immediately after Worlds but didn’t test it too much before...
