      This is because Irish people have a secret speaking-to-outsiders voice we use to the outward facing world.
      If you ever watch an RTE broadcast from the 60s, the accent is quite different from today, and that's because the policy wasn't in place then.

    i don't often watch competitive anything, being not competitive at all myself. but this was really fun to watch, and i think most of it is dan's play-by-play commentary, explaining what everything is and reacting to it so i could get excited or worried alongside anyone else. i actually cheered at several points throughout this, which i definitely would not have if it weren't for dan making sure i understood. gg, all hail the pokemon king

    I think the reason why I keep coming to watch this video so often that it's one of my favorite videos from RT is because this is genuinely a cinematic masterpiece.
    It's an underdog story, and it uses the Hero's Journey quite well. From the Start of the journey, to the Call to Action, Conflict and Climaxes; they're all there. And just Dan is such a great storyteller even if he doesn't know, and anyone with a love of Pokemon will surely love how every battle is played. Everyone played so well, and I'd really love to see more tournament plays with Dan whenever Wolfeys plans another for Scarlet/Violet.
