#6Pokemon1LifeStory

A Pokémon fan since the very beginning, little did Marti imagine that years later she would be invited to the Pokémon Black & White Versions Premiere. The only girl in her college Game Development class, once a journalist for the Official Nintendo Magazine, diagnosed with type 1 diabetes as an adult - come discover her story, as well as the 6 Pokémon she would choose for her Dream Team. Kick back with Marti & me, and let us #MakeYourDayMerry!
