Hi, folks! I'm Rebecca, also known as Rosy. Once upon a time, when I was 8 years old, I received my first ever video game handheld console - a Game Boy Color - with Pokémon Red. Since that day, I've enjoyed playing many of the other Pokégames that came out with each generation that was introduced. As I got older, I got more interested in learning the art of competitive battling, as well as mastering EV training and IV breeding.
I've gone to PAX East twice: the very first one in 2010, and the most recent one in 2015 (I was too college-student-poor to attend the ones in between). I took on the PPL in '15, and did well enough to reach the Hall of Fame! Some leaders may remember my "killer rabbit" Azumarill which I used in the majority of my battles; the champion might remember that I swept 5/6 of his team with a Hawlucha (which I still kind of feel bad about... As much as I loved winning that final battle, I wanted to give a fairer, more intense fight. But I digress).
Anyway, I loved the PPL experience and the super-friendly atmosphere so much, that I decided to try applying for a Gym Leader position for PAX East '16. And I got in!!
I'm wicked excited to be part of the league, and I can't wait to meet everyone else who will be there, too!
