Pokémon Society: President

I’m Malena and I would like to nominate myself for president of the Pokémon society because I have been loving it for a decade now. My first game was Pokémon Heartgold and I haven’t stopped playing since. I want to spread the love and passion I have for Pokémon to more people and have them enjoy the games as much as I have.

The main change I propose would be introducing mini tournament within the society both through the video-games as well as the card games. 

I have the experience to carry out this role as I was a prefect at my school which conveys I have experience speaking to administration. Not only that, but I was also taught debate to the younger kids at my school and led the book club. All of this proves I have the leadership experience necessary to carry out the role. Furthermore, I am also a skilled organiser as I was able to balance all these roles with my school life.

Please vote for me!

Hi everyone! This is John, otherwise known as Realzzz on Discord, and I’m running for Pokémon Society President this year! 

Being welfare officer this past year, I’ve gained an understanding of what makes Pokésoc truly Pokésoc: It’s the community that the society has fostered. No matter Discord or in person, Pokésoc is a community of supportive individuals with a common interest: Pokémon. That is what I believe to be the core of Pokésoc: united through Pokémon but becoming much more. It has continuously been a place where people can relax and enjoy themselves, and I hope that continues next year. 

Being committee, I understand how activities are organized, setting up collabs, and the nitty-gritty of it all. For next year, I’ll build on our current connections with other societies and universities, hosting more collabs with other societies within UCL, as well as hoping to continue with Inter-University stuff, within London and stretching to IUPS (Hopefully LDL is a gateway to more!). Pokémon Go Walks, TCG events, Movie Screenings, Competitive Stuff, Arts & Crafts are still on the radar, but I will actively try and bring more events to Pokésoc. 

Following Ro’s footsteps as president will be very difficult, but it’s a challenge that I’m up for, and a goal I would like to achieve. I’m confident that I can bring another wonderful year of Pokémon for everyone, so please vote for me to become President!
