Some of the biggest Pokémon fans in the world are freestyle dancers. Polygon met up with some of the best in Salt Lake City, during the Red Bull Dance Your Style SLC Qualifiers to find out what makes this community tick. Han Yang, co-owner of Brolic Games and founder of Stance Elements, walked us through his relationship to trading cards, and how they fit into this close-knit global community. From Pokémon pack ripping, to the intense final round of this freestyle dance competition, we saw a side of the dance community that was nerdy and passionate. The National Finals of Red Bull Dance Your Style are Sept. 19, and the World Finals will be held in Zurich, Switzerland on Oct. 24. It's an event with no equal, and if you can go you must. *IMPORTANT LINKS* Polygon Newsletter: https://www.polygon.com/pages/newsletter TikTok: tiktok.com/@polygon Twitter: http://bit.ly/PolygonTwitter Instagram: http://bit.ly/PolygonInsta Facebook: http://bit.ly/PolygonFB And for more gaming and entertainment coverage, visit http://www.polygon.com
