15 OutOfPoket - Pokémon GO NAIC Champion

Hear how OutOfPoket aka Aiden Hedderly, winner of the 2024 North America International Championships for Pokémon GO, got to where he is today, from sharing a phone with his mum when they discovered the game via figuring out how best to balance school & games all the way up to what was going through his head during that fateful NAIC - and, as always, discover the 6 Pokémon he would choose for his Dream Team. This cheeky champion is sure to charm you - come hang out with Aiden & me and let us #MakeYourDayMerry!
