It was lockdown and Gavin Davies's life, like many people's, was on pause. Then he started watching YouTuber Logan Paul and, suddenly, his life darted off on a new trajectory that's continued with him opening a new business.
Gavin first started collecting Pokémon cards at six years old and carried on the hobby throughout his childhood, until around 2011. However, it was during lockdown that he rediscovered his former passion. He said: “I stopped for a while and then during Covid, there’s a YouTuber in America called Logan Paul who started the hype again. Everyone was getting their cards and binders out from the attic and shoeboxes, and me and my old housemate were looking at our old collections and I was completely invested again.
“I used the Covid lockdown to lose weight - I lost six stone - and also researched Pokémon. I watched every video and documentary about Pokémon as you don’t know everything about it as a kid - so I got myself up to scratch with everything.”
