8 Amy Wosley - Pokémon Trading Card Game Caster & Streamer

In her own words, Amy Wosley aka Pumpkaamy is 'living the dream she never knew could be'. Her life story is a lesson in just being yourself - good things will follow, and Amy is thriving as an artist, board game café manager, content creator and caster. Hear how she got to this point, from her first Pokémon game - Crystal - to enabling others to find near-instant success competing in the Trading Card Game via accidentally becoming a Twitch-partnered streamer - and, of course, discover the 6 Pokémon on Amy's Dream Team that have been there for her along the way. Come hang out with Amy & me and let us brighten your day!

*Shiny Pokémon: Each Pokémon has a Shiny version, an incredibly rare differently-coloured variant that sparkles when encountered (1/8192 chance to find a Shiny in Generation II - V Pokémon games, 1/4096 in Generation VI onwards). They are not otherwise different from regular Pokémon, no more powerful etc, but of course they are highly prized for their rarity.
