Joseph / Echo is a really good GM! :D I was still figuring out Pathfinder 2nd edition when I first joined one of his games, and after several sessions I can safely say that he knows the rules very well and he's great at explaining things. It's been a great time!

I wanted to take a moment to share my heartfelt appreciation for the incredible experience Joseph has crafted for us. The creativity, dedication, and enthusiasm he brings to every session have made our adventures unforgettable. From the very beginning, the detailed world-building and engaging storytelling have drawn us into a vibrant Pokémon universe that feels both familiar and wonderfully unique. The balance of exciting battles, intriguing puzzles, and heartwarming character interactions is nothing short of masterful. The attention to detail and willingness to adapt the story to our choices make every session feel personalized and special. Each Pokémon and NPC is brought to life with distinct personalities and quirks, adding a layer of depth that enhances our immersion and connection to the game. I particularly appreciate the encouragement and support for our creativity, allowing us to explore and grow within the world they've created. The patience and inclusivity foster a positive atmosphere where every player feels valued and important. Thank you for all the time and effort put into making our Pokémon adventures so memorable. The passion for the game and genuine care for the players shine through in every session. I'm incredibly grateful to have such an amazing Dungeon Master and excited for all the adventures yet to come. With heartfelt appreciation, Antigoni
