The Fourth Rotation - #MyPKMNStory

David Hernandez: [00:00:00] every journey begins with a choice. I made mine when I stopped waiting to be seen and chose to believe in myself. I always knew I was creator, but doubt, fear, silence. They held me back until one day I said, Let's find out what I'm really made of. That's when As The Pokeball Turns was born. 

David Hernandez: This podcast isn't just about interviews. It's a time capsule, a bridge between Pokemon influencers and everyday fans. It's a home for the overlooked, the underestimated, and the forgotten. The ones who never had a stage but damn sure had a story. 

David Hernandez: Because let's face it, some creators only see clout.

David Hernandez: I see people, peoples whose lives were shaped by a game that gave us hope when the world [00:01:00] didn't. In 2016 Pokemon Go United Strangers. Now, As The Pokeball Turns unite stories. 

David Hernandez: I know what it's like to feel alone, to wonder if you'll ever be seen. This podcast was built for you.

David Hernandez: I'm not here to chase trends. I'm here to lead a movement, One voice, one journey, one memory at a time, and let me be clear. I'm not here to kiss up. I'm not here to play games. I'm here to build something real, something that lasts. 

David Hernandez: And the best thing for [00:02:00] me. My best has yet to come. 

David Hernandez: My story is still being written. 

David Hernandez: Welcome to As The Pokeball Turns. 

David Hernandez: your next Pokemon adventure begins here.
