TimDanklin claims he created an army of 473 Team Rocket's Honchkrow players for Melbourne regionals, do you think this is true and how do you feel about it?

I think this could be very funny if it is true and it leaves an imprint on the top decks list of Limitless, climbing to 8th place minimum in my bet.

Another thing: he said he trained 473 players, but we don't know how many of them would have attended Melbourne without his initiative. So it could be very possible most of them would have not and that we may see our first tournament in Oceania with over 1,000 players (699 attended the last one).

As for the credibily, while he may have exaggerated the number, I think it would be at least a few dozens, since we saw him asking for players to be in that initiative months beforehand in a few videos.

What do you think?

You'll probably roast me for this probably incomplete research based solely on wiktionary, but today I learned that the "che" in "chemist" and "fu" in "futile" are doublets

This was not reviewed by a linguist and the person who created this chart (me) knows not much about etymology

Bombirdier can potentially be broken

2 colorless is easily achievable with Crispin or Glass Trumpet, and with Retry Badge, assuming you only re-flip double tails, you have a 15/16 chance of getting at least 1 new Pokemon on the Bench without needing evolutions. I put here some examples from Pitch Black and Chaos Rising of Pokemon for which it can be useful (including Sinticha and POR Doublade -- it means one less Pokemon from the Ghost Veil [16] or Aegislash Line [12] in play, meaning it can be used in the discard pile or hand) along with some stage 2 Pokemon I found which were previously considered bad partly because of being stage 2 and needing Tatsugiri ex, which is much less reliable than this Bombirdier.

If I had more room, I would have also put in:

White Flare Gothitelle (When in active, opp shuffles hand to deck and draws 3),

Black Bolt Seismitoad (does 70xPokemon in play with Round -- AKA only its own line and PFL Wigglytuff, making it very clumsy and prone to bad prizing),

PFL Wigglytuff (same reason),

Mega Meganium ex, Mega Venusaur ex, Arboliva ex, Meganium (The deck having 3 different three-stage lines makes it unsuccessful even with Forest of Vitality),

Steven's Metagross ex, Empoleon ex,

TWM Infernape (attach 1 Fighting and 1 Fire from hand to mons),

SCR Rhyperior (can't be bossed out of active spot -- wanted to use it for a long time),

SSP Walrein (for 1 Water, 60 damage and disable all attacks on mons with 2 or less Energy),

TWM Scoilepede (for 1 Darkness and 1 colorless, reduce opp's active to 10 HP),

TWM Alakazam (Strange Hacking).

Do you think this Bombirdier could be a revolution?

Pokemon TCG decks, their overall attack roster (size matters here) and that one attack in them. Any criticisms of this chart?

I confessed, she said she doesn't want a connection with anyone right now. How do I uncrush?

TL;DR: Need uncrushing advice after a crush of 14 months.

Rationally, I know I should ditch now every idea or plan I had for a future with her, and that I have no chances. But a part of my brain is still in the denail stage, or bargaining, I'm not sure. I catch myself thinking of scenarios where she changes her mind, but I know that no scenario like this is possible, no matter what she thinks. Crushing on that friend for more than 14 months and mistaking stuff for signs that she likes me back was a terrible idea, and it makes it harder to disconnect her from my brain.

If anyone cares, her exact words were:

"I don't want a connection right now... not personal to you, with anyone."

But I guess only I care, or at least, that denying/bargaining part of me that says "she didn't explicitly say she doesn't like you, so this must mean she does!" but I have no interest in giving that option any thought. If things turn out right, I will meet many new people over the next few months, so maybe I'll get a new crush, but I don't want it to end like this again. This is a worry for future me. Right now, any uncrushing advice will be welcome.
