I'm carrying my second round matchup of a PC4 key about to close it out, my fully-clothed father brings me a plate of KFC (organised earlier) with sauce as I Boss for game.

So how is your day going?

Melbourne Regionals 2026 comes to an end and it looked very different for me behind the casters desk instead of the bottom tables 😅

S/O to my duo @ultraarceus plus @TripleBtcg and @DICE__TCG on the other side! Also @PvPSteve1 and crew for organising everything, such a ride!

[PvP Steve @PvPSteve1]

Thank you to everyone for tuning in for the final Regional stream for Oceania 2026! ❤️🇦🇺

Proud of what we have been able to accomplish over the last few years, and I look forward to see what 2027 brings 🫶

Thank you to @Pokemon & @ESLAustralia for making this all possible 🙏

I'm not sure I can be considered 'washed up' with my mediocre achievements as a player, but I've decided to get behind a microphone for Melbourne regionals!

Make sure to check out the stream this weekend over at https://t.co/sjy7cDKDKR

Huge thanks @PvPSteve1 for all of this!

SYDNEY REGIONALS DAY 1
7-1

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

We may have missed the opening yesterday, but we are cracking a box of Phantasmal at @Pokelotto at their new store on Murray St in Hobart

Check out the stream https://t.co/r2DI2TucUc

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

@Pokelotto Big shoutouts to all of my opponents and even bigger to the judges! Possibly the smoothest Aus Regionals that I've played in!

As always, cheers to DICE Collectables for the last minute cards, visit them at https://t.co/Dy79isknMU or at their new store in Hobart on the 15th!

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

36th at Brisbane with Absol. Bubbling cash, a box, and 40 more points is going to take a bit to process, but I could have been a lot better on Day 1.

Deck is so much fun and every game felt like the most interactive Pokemon that I have played in a long time!

@Pokelotto GOATed

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

First regionals of the season, flight to Brisbane delayed so much causing a missed connection and now forced to change flights to one that's 4 hours later... Season on the ropes before playing in a major 🫠 Pray to Arceus for me... 🙏🏻

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

This one is even better! 😍😍😍

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

These new arts on TCG Pocket are cold 😍

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

@BenryBrand @BenryBrand is the real Pokemon GO

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

4/4 at Melbourne means my season is done. First time missing invite since competing! New structure definitely feels a lot more wallet-warrior-based in Aus, but I definitely didn't do well enough at the local regs either. Fun season though and looking forward to next season! ❤️

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

@TimDanklin Classic Unfezant enjoyer behaviour 🕊

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

Melbourne is my last event of the season. Unless... 👀

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

Do I get to run back last year's Brisbane top 4 now...? 👀

You want Suicune? I want Suicune. Let’s give someone in my circle a Suicune.

To enter?
-Follow ME (I’m vain like that)
-RT (I’m vain like that)
-LIKE (I’m vain like that)

Winner drawn eventually! (Probably this weekend)

😘

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

Just a heads up that this is not just a visual glitch. I switch-carted a Squawk with 70 damage to the bench, where it said it had 10 damage on it, and then Munki'd what should have been 30 of the 40 damage off of it, but it only let me move 10 damage.

[TrustYourPilot Pokémon TCG (Pitch Black soon!) @TrustYourPilot1]

They broke Switch Cart with today's PTCGL update...

It's purely visual, but it still looks my Latias ex had 50 damage healed.

(It still shows as 190HP remaining if you embiggen the card)

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

I don't usually hate on the PTCGLive devs as PTCGO was awful when it started too, but ignoring the pleas to fix game-breaking bugs in favour of nerfing one of the only good things about the game is certainly a choice...

Just Haru's from two months ago, nothing crazy... Turo and Crispin both feel bad but there are situations where they're very necessary, won me a game each over two tournaments. List is solid 👍🏼

[Joshua Sparks @JSparksyTCG]

Just won my first Cup in 7 months with Haru's Pult list, after Top 4'ing every Cup in between, and now I'm sleepy... #Dreeps
