Two Pokémon masters have proven themselves to be the very best, like no one ever was.
Wade Stanley and Wesley Morioka were crowned the greatest in the land during the 2010 Pokémon Video Game National Championships in Indianapolis, Indiana, this weekend.
11-year-old Stanley (pictured above) from San Diego took the Juniors division edging out 2nd place trainer Carlos Flores of El Paso.
In the Seniors division, Chicago's Morioka, 16, bested Len Deuel of Dallas for the win.
Both masters are now eligible to participate in the 2010 Pokémon Video Game World Championships, to be held in in Kona, Hawaii this August.
The Pokémon Video Game National Championships bring regional winners from around the country to battle for national supremacy. The competitions are played using Pokémon Heart Gold and Pokémon Soul Silver for the Nintendo DS.
