It just so happened that the day I recorded with Freya, not only was it her & her husband's anniversary but she'd also been made a job offer! Freya Pearce is thriving as a Pokémon Trading Card Game Caster & Competitor - hear how she got here, from her childhood in Brazil all the way up to settling in Denmark, via reaching Top 16 of the World Championships twice, discovering the furry community, her transition, and - of course - her hand-picked 6 Dream Team Pokémon that have been there for her along the way. Freya's story is an eye-opening & heartwarming one, and her sunny personality is guaranteed to leave you with a smile - come hang out & let us #MakeYourDayMerry!
*Confused by what's going on at the start of the episode?! You can see the head of Freya's majestic Koraidon costume that she's wearing in the video version on my YouTube channel, where you'll also be able to see pictures of her Dream Team Pokémon, artwork & costumes for her fursonas, and images of cards she talks about: https://youtu.be/5iulvPjUWUE
Drop a comment over there as I'd love to know your thoughts on what Freya's shared with us - and what your own Pokémon Dream Team would be...
