    Have you ever attended Worlds as a competitor or spectator? How did you fair? What was the experience like? How much did you drool at the sight of the Pokémon Center?! :)
     
    I attended in 2011 and made it to the semifinals of LCQs. I lost to the dumbest thing ever, I didn't think a -1 Tornadus with an Acrobatics Flying Gem could kill a 252 HP Scrafty. And I had Protect. Oops.

    The Pokemon store was ok, the line was long and most of the cool things were sold out. It only sold Worlds-specific merch so I got a T-shirt and a binder.

    Oh wow that's amazing to get that far! Was it nerve wracking knowing you were playing at Worlds?

    No. D: I've never really even seen any streams. Thinking of changing that this year, as a huge Pokémon fan I want to experience as much of this as I can.

    It's only the last year or two really where they've up'd their game streaming wise and made it really interesting and enjoyable to watch. Hope this year will be a good one and you can enjoy it!

    I've never managed to make it to Worlds as either a spectator or as a participant. I eventually would like to change that, however.

    It sure would be an amazing experience! Fingers crossed!
     
    I wasn't technically a competitor since it was LCQs (last chance qualifiers). If you win LCQs, then you get to become a full competitor at Worlds; although I think they got rid of Worlds LCQs when they revamped the CP system and gave Japan proper qualifiers. I was more bummed out that I was so close to being a competitor and missed my chance because of a small mistake. Oh well, I had fun otherwise, I got Junichi Masuda to autograph my copy of Pokemon Blue :)
