As IGN reported, Simone Lim earned her title after beating last year’s Pokémon Oceania Junior Championship winner Justin Miranda-Radbord, an older opponent. Making her victory all the more impressive was that this was her “first competitive season and her first major tournament after winning in two regional tournaments”.
Lim’s win also caught the eye of esports consultant Rod Breslau. He noted that her achievement and ability to defeat older and more experienced opponents showed that “esports is for everyone”.
