Nick Kyrgios is well-known not just for his exceptional abilities but also for his diverse interests outside tennis. Among these, his unanticipated obsession with Pokémon has come to define his off-court persona. While the 28-year-old Australian is quite into Pokemon, he might have influenced American wrestler Logan Paul to do the same.

Recently, the American wrestler opened up about creating a team with the Wimbledon finalist to have an amazing Pokemon quest. Not only that, after looking to team up with the Australian tennis player to create their own Pokemon United team, he also received Kyrgios’ confirmation over the Pokemon game.

Recently, the 28-year-old American wrestler took to his Twitter account to share a little insight regarding his recent Pokemon quest with his fans, with Kyrgios sharing his excitement over the same. While he opened up about how he got obsessed with Pokemon, at the same time he also highlighted that the Wimbledon finalist and himself are together, ready to create a Pokemon team for themselves.

He wrote, “One year ago, @NickKyrgios came on my podcast and told me about a Nintendo Switch game called “Pokemon Unite.” Given my obsession with Pokemon, I finally started playing & now I’m addicted. Nick & I want to compete in the Championship Tournament but we don’t have a team… anyone looking for two strong teammates OR want to form an eSports team with us?”

Along with that, he also highlighted and wrote qualifications regarding the two of them as he opened up about having new players on his team. Looking into that, the former 13th-ranked tennis player shared his take on getting ready to team up with the wrestler to try an e-sport on a competitive level. He wrote, “Let’s go!!! This gonna be crazy! @LoganPaul man of many talents.” 

While the 28-year-old Australian tennis player himself is quite excited about the Pokemon Unite team, over the years both of them have turned out to be great companions as they found a common passion. While Kyrgios is quite a fan of Logan Paul, a few months ago, the Australian received a three-word remark from the American wrestler icon over his Pokemon tattoo.
