ChozenOne (also known as simply "Chozen") is a Jigglypuff player from Fairfax, VA and the highest ranking member of his former crew Team No Respect. He is largely considered to be among the US's premiere Jigglypuff players, along with King and KishPrime.

ChozenOne gained publicity for his articles and advice given in the Jigglypuff section locationed at SmashBoards.

Along with writing in-depth strategics on Jigglypuff's matchups and moveset potential on SmashBoards (his most well known thread is entitled "ChozenOne's Learn to Fux With Amazingness Thread"), in the past he was also in the process of creating a combo video entitled "Revolution" starring himself, and his fellow TNR crew mates. However, to this day, the combo video has never surfaced.

In 2015, ChozenOne co-founded The Cave Gaming Center in Fairfax, Virginia and has since begun sponsoring players on Team Cave Gaming. He has recently signed Boss, a Smash player from Falls Church VA, and Pulse, a Street Fighter and Smash player from Stafford VA.
