Hi I’m SlowHomie and I’d be an amazing asset to your team! This year I’ve been incredibly consistent across USPA, Smogon Events, and my 1st Regional.

I’ve also been staying on top of each metagame by giving my friends matchup practice, consistently hitting 80 GXE on Bo3 ladder with multiple compositions, and with my Twitter content giving metagame breakdowns and guides. I’m locked in and ready to ball out!

Hi, my name is Alessandro and I’ve been playing since 2016.
I was one step away from winning this tournament four years ago, but I’m not satisfied at all because I want to win this competition.
One year ago, I was drafted by cruisers, but I wasn’t happy with my performance, so over the last year I’ve been working very hard to improve myself.
In September, I played the API by Smogon (an Italian draft tournament like the NPA) and finished 5-1 in regular season.
I think myself as a good cheap pick because i want to improve my skills in this game and I like meeting new people and discussing about this game with them.

I'm only okay at the game, however because my name is at the top of the vgc showdown room putting a bid in for me might trick another team to put in a slightly higher bid and you can scam them that way

I'm Nicholas Donnelly, otherwise known as GetNikkDon or Nikk online. I love team tours for the opportunity to meet new people or to bond with those I've already met. I've been having a great time with Champions, and frankly, I'd love to use this team tour as a way to stretch my creative wings and work with people in order to build teams and play the game on a deeper level than forcing one team for an extended period of time in prep for an event. Thank you for taking the time to read this and considering me ❤️

Accomplishments
190th at my first in person event NAIC 2025.
Top 16 in Smogon VGC Oldgens 2017 Tour
Phases 2 VGC Ladder Tournament and achieving t20 on reg F ladder.

Bio
Hey, I’m Nintindall64, a college student from Kentucky in the US. I’ve been playing competitive Pokémon since Gen 5, but I didn’t start getting deeply into VGC until Gen 8. I mainly play through online formats like Showdown and draft leagues, where I’ve spent a lot of time developing my understanding of team building and matchups.
I enjoy building around synergy and trying to make uncommon picks work in VGC. In terms of experience, I placed 190th at my first in-person event at NAIC 2025 going 5-3, made Top 16 in the Smogon VGC Oldgens 2017 Tour, and reached Phase 2 of the VGC Ladder Tournament while also achieving top 20 on the Regulation F ladder. I also tend to stay relatively high on the ladder overall. As a player, I am very flexible with teams, I try to be reliable, open to feedback, and easy to work with. I take matches seriously and prepare each week, while also focusing on adapting and improving throughout the season. One of my main goals is to keep getting better by playing against stronger competition and learning as much as I can from those experiences so I thought I will give NPA a shot.

Bio
Hi everyone! My name is Andrew Block, and this is my third year competing at IRL VGC events, though I’ve been playing singles on Showdown since 2016. I really enjoy team tours because they’re a great way to meet other VGC players from outside your area and connect with like-minded people for team building and matchup prep. I consider myself a competitive person, so I’m usually very involved in team tours. In addition to playing, I like to help my team by scouting opponents and talking through lines with my teammates. Feel free to message me on Twitter or Discord if you have any questions!
