Growing up surrounded by Pokémon, a young Cathy aka Sunnie would be beside herself to learn that she’d end up working with The Pokémon Company International. Discover her life story, from being given her own games console & Pokémon game having previously shared with her sisters as a child, how she started streaming, how she found her people & more - and, as always, find out the 6 Pokémon most special to her over the years that she would choose for her Dream Team. Let Cathy & I #MakeYourDayMerry!

Become a YouTube channel member or head to my Patreon (links above) for Sunnie's RAPIDASH ROUND! Bonus quickfire questions she hasn't prepared for: What are the origins of the name 'Sunnie'? What are other Shinies she's really proud of, and other streams that are her favourites? Kabuto or Omanyte?! Answers to all these and many more lie in store: let the merriment continue!

My name's Charlie Merriman - Merri by name, merry by nature - a pleasure to meet you! I'm a host & commentator for the Pokémon Video Game Championships Series and a content creator. You can find me as @Chazingdra on YouTube, X, BlueSky, Instagram & TikTok - on my channel I stream Pokémon games both competitively & casually Tues-Thurs including Shiny hunting, vlog events I cast, make comedy skits and loads more! Come be a part of the merriment! And why not join the friendly Merrifolk? Become a member of my Discord community Chazingdra's Chocolate Factory - if you enjoy all the treats that the Pokémon video games have to offer, competitive or casual, then it's the place for you. It would be a pleasure to welcome you :) ALL LINKS AT THE TOP!

There are now more than 50 episodes of the show featuring a broad range of people in the Pokémon community, from competitive to casual players & beyond - enjoy! I work really hard on these episodes so if you’d like to support, likes & subscribes to my YouTube channel @Chazingdra really do go such a long way, as do comments with your thoughts - I’d love to read them! On Spotify & other audio apps, ratings, reviews & comments are really helpful. Spreading the word about the show, by telling your friends, sharing episodes & using the hashtag #6Pokemon1LifeStory online helps a lot too, and again becoming a YouTube channel member or joining my Patreon (links above) ensures I can continue to bring content to you. Thank you :)
