Twitter: PG_RayCA Pokemon TCG player has gone viral for getting a “McBeating” in a tournament after his opponent brought his cards, dice, and playmat to the match wrapped in McDonald’s wrappers and cups.
Pokemon TCG events are in full force in 2023 after almost two years without any competitions, with the Pokemon World Championships taking place in Yokohama, Japan.
