Newcomer wins on debut ahead of VGC legends at Pokemon Scarlet and Violet Vancouver Regionals

At the previous Pokémon North American tournament in Knoxville, it was Justin Tang winning the very first Pokémon Regionals he entered.

This weekend, it was a similar story for first-time competitor Abdullah Mohayyuddin, who went undefeated in the first eleven rounds of swiss and only dropped two matches throughout the entire tournament. He went on to defeat fellow Canadian Ryan Loseto in the finals to take home the trophy and Regional Championship title.
