Finished 6-3 in the @JacobSkraw tour. First tour in over a year and had a blast. Only lost to Sinistcha teams which I knew would be tough going in. Ty for hosting!!

@AllyVGC Happy birthday big guy

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@ahailstone All the best to you, Andy. I know you did so much behind the scenes for the internships that no one noticed. Hope you land somewhere great. 🙏

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@AshtonCoxGAZ Do you think that has more to do with the mons or the open vs closed sheets?

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@BlubVGC Thanks for the kind words dude

[Carl @CrawlShots]

I think my age has caught up to me! I am not the crawlshots of a few years ago and that's ok. Dropped at 3-3 today which makes it my worst 8/9 round regional to date. Was fatigued & missed some big moves

Will consider a comeback if CTS comes back I think. Til then, a break. <3

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@Azulite_poke Explain?

[Carl @CrawlShots]

Are old Twitlonger pages just gone now?... Or is there some way to recover them?

Early 2017, brought this to a PC and went undefeated in swiss. Lost to @PacoTacoWT in finals on a G3 Tapu Koko speed tie. Felt like a good player for the first time.

I remember clicking Sludge Bomb into a Kartana on a G1 T1 bc I called Fini coming in

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@45mice Thought about this for a bit and I think it's actually gen 8 regieleki. 2016 Smeargle objectively is worse but that was my first format and I have a weird fondness for it.

The professional photo session that streamed players get backstage....

Anyone know if/how those photos are viewable?

[Carl @CrawlShots]

@Gaming_Mammoth_ I didn't really do calcs for this tour, which is unusual for me but I didn't have the time. It does live a tera fairy specs Moonblast from flutter. Mainly I wanted to hit hard (max attack) and be faster than most Iron Hands, Sinistcha, and other slowish mons

[Carl @CrawlShots]

Serious prep for Peoria felt unfun, so instead I brought Houndstone and 0 top usage mons and had some fun.

Started 5-1 and went on stream, which was pretty cool and exceeded my expectations. Finished 5-4. Gholdengo was my nightmare MU 😅

OH - I don't have the DLC or Legends so big shoutout to @Staticasaurus for trading me the Enamorus and Sinistcha. Glad your mons got to be on stream :)
