Hi everyone!! My name is Javier Señorena. I live in Pozuelo de Alarcon (which is a city next to Madrid, Spain), I'm 25 and I've studied Business Management in the Carlos III University, in Madrid.
I started playing Pokemon when I was 7 and competively when I was 12.
My first tournament ever was Madrid Regionals in VGC 2009, but I had no knowledge about competitive Pokemon by that time, I just noticed because it was announced in the TV and in a Nintendo magazine. More than one year later I started competing, I attended to Spanish National Championship in VGC 2011 and many other tournaments later.
Now I see Pokemon as a way to travel across the world and make friends along the way. Also I am a very competitive person who always focus to improve. Here are my biggest achievements.
