As The Pokeball Turns

"Jirachi's Wish is You" ft. Ginger Jirachi | TRAINER'S EYE #172


Listen Later

When you lose everything, what brings you back? For Ginger Jirachi, it was Pokémon and a little wish upon a star. 

After a painful divorce and losing nearly everything he collected, Ginger Jirachi rebuilt his life one Pokéstop at a time, powered by Pokémon nostalgia, the warmth of community, and the quiet strength of starting over. From sibling memories and clay-art cards to a wish for Worlds and a newfound path in sobriety, his story reminds us that sometimes, wishes really do come true.

Listen as he shares how the trading card game, Pokémon GO, and one mythical star brought hope back into focus. This is more than a comeback, it’s a celebration of connection, healing, and holding on to joy.

 🎧 Listen to heartfelt stories of inclusion, resilience, and connection.
