Have you ever liked Pokémon cards, games, and anime?

Well, West High offers a Pokémon club for Pokémon enthusiasts.

Club member Nathan Bretz ‘17 is called a veteran of the club by other club members, and he described the club activities as watching the Pokémon anime, playing the Pokémon card game and playing the Pokémon video games.

Bretz joined the club because he likes playing the Pokémon card game, and because of that–it’s no surprise that his favorite activity to do in the club is to play the Pokémon card game. His favorite Pokémon is Shaymin.

There are two club presidents for the Pokémon Club. Benjamin Bliven ‘17 is one of the club presidents. Bliven became one of the club presidents because as he said, “I made this club with my friends.”

As one of the club presidents, Bliven oversees the club, helps new players of the Pokémon card game and helps organize club events. To organize club events, the club presidents discuss it, and then once decided what the event is, they announce the club event to the club members.

Bliven’s favorite activity to do in the club is to play the Pokémon card game. His favorite Pokémon is Lucario.

If you think that you would like to go to a Pokémon Club meeting, then they meet in Room 31 on Tuesdays after school from 3:30-5 p.m.
