About this listen

What if everything you loved about Pokémon was taken away, not once, but again and again? And yet...you kept coming back.

The creator behind the Unova Region Champion Black Facebook page shares a powerful journey of resilience, rediscovery, and rebuilding. From having Pokémon taken away by family, to stolen cards, lost consoles, and a shattered childhood, Sharpie found his way back through grit, community, and the comforting chaos of a Sunflora solo run. You'll hear how a stolen Game Boy, a grandfather's support, and a lifelong love for Water-type Pokémon all shaped a voice now heard by over 130,000 fans.

Listen now to discover how one Trainer turned heartbreak into healing and why the Pokémon community still means everything.
