>>45089240Unironically this, but you can't be a tryhard faggot or you'll attract and repel the wrong people.
Additionally, try to find a local pokemon league for your choice of VGC or TCG
or pokken? lol when they start back up after the roni. If you're a 20-something that doesn't look like a sperg (clean/groomed and not in pokemon graphic tees) you'll probably meet a qt at some local event and hit it off. You'll probably have to deal with furry-curious tendencies, but those will pass.
