Races of Pokémon Legends Z-A and Card GB to feature in the ICE Breaker charity marathon this weekend, supporting the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund

The speedrunning community are coming together this weekend from January 30th to February 1st for ICE Breaker, a marathon raising money for Minnesotans being affected by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Races of both Pokémon Trading Card Game for the Gameboy and Pokémon Legends: Z-A are scheduled for the event, which can be watched from the ReallyReallyLongAThon Twitch channel.

The marathon was put together by 'Helix' and the RRLAT team. The marathon will be supporting the Immigrant Rapid Response Fund. Created by the Women's Foundation of Minnesota, it is dedicated to supporting immigrants' rights and needs in targeted communities by providing basic needs, legal services, and education on rights and safety. Their goal is to raise at least $5 million USD to support nonprofit organizations across the state.
