New name, same me.
Hi, I'm trans. She/her pronouns please <3
I'm changing my first name to Freya but I'm keeping Nicky as middle name, so Freya, Nick or Nicky are all fine ^^
That's it, that's the tweet.
131st at NAIC with Arceus/Aerodactyl. No top 8 dream sadly but I blame that more on my play than the deck - the list felt amazing all weekend with coverage for almost everything. Feel free to ask any questions <3
The cat got hungry and ate my Squawkabilly though, bad kitty >:(
Well this wasn’t how I expected casting the Lille finals to go :(
Likely it was just a really bad panic attack but they want to be sure/better safe than sorry. The doctors here are wonderful and have been incredibly kind and supportive. Will update once I know for sure what’s up
The real mental illness is thinking that other people’s self actualisation and joy is mental illness.
Also if you think TCG is immune from this, just look at the twitch chat any time I’m on stream for an event 🙃🙃🙃
Really gross seeing the comments on the NAIC finals video making disparaging comments about Stephane’s nail polish. Imagine being that upset about coloured keratin.
Today was a very special day - wedding dress try-ons <333
(None of these were the one I ended up picking - that one of course I’m not sharing until the wedding!)
After some serious consideration I’ve decided to part ways with my HGSS non-holo energy. Pictures in thread. If you wanna make a serious offer, please send me a DM and we can discuss. All are light played or better condition.

Absolutely exhausted after 3 days of casting at the LAIC but also completely elated. Huge shoutout to
@ChipRichey
for being an amazing co caster,
@KSabelhaus
for crushing as usual and
@tablemon
for absolutely nailing his first TPCi stream. See you all in Stuttgart <3
@CyrusDavisTCG
@XanatuVPR
NO!
You are a MAN!
use your designated restroom and leave REAL WOMAN ALONE!
your mental illness should not impact others!
we do not fringe on your rights, so why do you think its fine you can infringe on ours!
If I had a nickel for every trans girl that bubbled top 8 of worlds in 9th I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t much but it’s weird that it’s happened twice 😅
In all seriousness
@CyrusDavisTCG
I know exactly how it feels. Sending all the love and support your way.
Out of the hospital now. They checked for heart damage and clots, all clear. Guess it really was just another really bad panic attack. Back at the hotel now and going straight to bed.
Looks like the announcement is out! I’ll be back behind the caster desk for Stuttgart regionals along with
@thewossy
@omni_joe
and
@RabootTCG
- see you all there <3
I’m sure a lot of folks in the PTCG community probably don’t get the whole furry thing or straight up find it weird. Getting to run around as a big fluffy critter makes me incredibly happy. That’s all there is to it <3 (that and don’t knock it until you try it :3)
I think I’m ready to show my face again here, hi everyone, this is what I look like now <3
(With thanks to Natu and Xatu for being my profile picture for so long!)
#NewProfilePic
Hold on, Pokémon content… right! Yes, one of my roomies for one of the days at the con has a super cool Greninja suit, I think this photo especially turned out pretty on point :3
A mat I'll cherish forever - this is from the 2016 UK National Championships, my first ever TPCi livestream! Signed by the whole casting team :D
Come to think of it I never did add my own name/signature to this... in hindsight that ended up being a wise decision haha
This is it. NAIC day 1 starts in an hour. It’s top 8 or bust for my worlds invite. Going in with good friends and nothing to lose. Let’s get it done <3
Will update thread with results
Radiant Eternatus is a card that's lived rent free in my mind ever since it was revealed. We know the full pool of cards that it will ever be able to bring out. There has to be a way to break it somehow... 🤔
Marry someone who says:
- I love you
- I’m proud of you
- I'm grateful for you
- This attack does 20 damage times the number of Pokémon in your discard pile that have the Night March attack.
Marry someone who says:
- I love you
- I’m proud of you
- I'm grateful for you
- As long as this Pokémon is in the Active Spot, Basic Pokémon in play (both yours and your opponent’s) have no Abilities, except for Mischievous Lock.
Every time.
These are just the ones that slip through the net too, the mods do what they can but every time I'm casting this happens.
I always watch my games back to see where I can improve, and I want to see how chat is reacting as part of that. This just sucks though.
I think I might have shocked the guys here a lil bit when I walked in considering they were watching me on stream this weekend just gone 🤣
These guys are absolutely lovely though, 10/10 highly recommend a visit <3333
Still wondering who the heck made that Pokémon TCG iceberg with “Freya Furry” on the second deepest tier as if it’s some mega obscure lore when I’m just out here posting photos of me in fursuit on main 🤪
Last season was an off season for me play-wise due to the wedding. This year I’m going full ham. Every major where im not casting, I’ll be playing. I will not know peace until I make top 8 of worlds.
So my initial motivation in drawing attention to comments in chat when I'm casting was with regards to misgendering and transphobia but there's something else important to draw attention to as well: Comparing casters to each other. A small 🧵 (1/6)
I’m doing a lot lot better now. Taking it easy today and organising cards - something I haven’t done properly in ages. It feels nice <3
I’m not 100%, but I’m better than I’ve been in months. Feeling extra grateful today to be alive and well.
I’m going full send to get my invite next season. Gonna play every major that I’m not casting. I have an 8 year long score to settle with Worlds. Let’s make it happen!
It's going down at the 2024 Stockholm Regional Championships this weekend! Take a look at our amazing cast of commentators who will be breaking down all the action for us throughout the broadcast ✨
I love casting Pokémon TCG so so much. Being a part of making this happen over the years has been a nothing but a dream come true. Seeing your name in the credits makes it hit different. 💜
Thank you Dortmund. Thank you Pokémon. Thank you everyone.
#PlayPokemon
Really does just take one comment sometimes to ruin what was otherwise an amazing day 🥲
Looking forward to getting back behind the desk tomorrow at least. Please everyone, be kind. Hope you all enjoyed today <3
Aaaand that’s me done for the day! My voice just about managed to hold out somehow, I for sure won’t be saying much until the finals tomorrow 😅
Make sure to tune in for the final top 4 match, it’s gonna be a doozy!
Wanted to echo what Pablo said recently and mention that a lot of people at Stuttgart had a lot of kind words for me with regards to the LAIC stream - thank you all so much for your encouragement and vote of confidence <3
Stream fit for the weekend sneak peek 👀👀👀
The holiday jumpers are absolutely gorgeous, the arcanine one is by far my fav <3
(Thank you TPCi for the hook up
#ad
)
I've literally not had a single negative reaction to this and I feel super blessed and overwhelmed with positivity and support right now. I love you all ;w;
New name, same me.

I absolutely can’t wait to cast together with
@Pumpkaamy
tomorrow. We haven’t had the chance to cast together since Bremen 2022, it really means the world to cast with both a great friend and to be the only TCG all-girl caster pair. Make sure to tune in! 💚💚
They had Prize pack 3 as prizes today! My first time pulling a V out of a Prize pack and I couldn’t be happier about which one it was <333
Bonus Eiscue ex too out of the one obsidian flames!
Flying out in two days to go to Liverpool regionals! Can’t wait to get behind the desk again, gonna be an absolute blast I’m sure. Hope to see as many of you there as possible :D
Finished 2nd at the Tier1Con Pokémon TCG tournament with Ice Rider Palkia, won 100 euros in store credit which I put towards getting a booster box! All in all not a bad Saturday :3
Thanks
@SteakFrank
for the cracked list, by far my favourite deck in standard rn
Just realized I hit 1k last night, took a screener then completely forgot to mention it XD
Thank you all so much for 1k! Giveaway soon to celebrate, keep your eyes peeled 👀
