After some Regional event results, Mahone became a writer of strategy articles for PokéBeach from 2015 to 2018, a Pokémon fansite focused on the card game. In 2017, he partnered with the Derium’s Competitive Pokemon YouTube channel as a TCG player, which was adapted in 2018 to his own YouTube and Twitch channels named Tricky Gym.[1] These became some of the most popular sources of competitive Pokémon TCG content, where Mahone mainly showcases the game in tabletop or Pokémon Trading Card Game Live (formely Pokémon Trading Card Game Online) format.
