#6Pokemon1LifeStory

This episode comes in a big week for competitive Pokémon: it's the Europe International Championships, and it is my honour to present the Pokémon GO World Champion 2023 ItsAXN. Discover his path to glory and get inspired: his introduction to the franchise with Pokémon Sapphire & learning the competitive side of the video games, how his mother really got him into Pokémon GO & how family continued to play a pivotal part in his journey, the drive AXN feels now to give back to the community that has given him so much - and as always, find out the 6 Pokémon that have been there for AXN along the way that he would choose for his Dream Team... Don't miss your chance to get a World Champion's insight: hang out with AXN & me and let us #MakeYourDayMerry ! Please do like & subscribe if you're enjoying it :) (I apologise for overblown audio from my end at points during this episode!)
