John, "Turbo", I don't think I can say much more than what has already been said about you.
You were a guiding light in a sea of darkness for many people, and although you're no longer with us in a physical sense, your spirit will live on within the community you helped bring together.
Thank you so much for being you.
Rest in Paradise, my friend.

Turbo’s voice and hunts were something I looked forward to daily for months and months. I know I hadn’t been around much in the last few months. But in my mind Turbo will always be a legend. So in true Turbo honor I will say this. TURN IT UP

We first met in 2015 via the promoting of his Rock Against Dystrophy benefits on my New Jersey health news blog YourHHRSnews.com -- which turned out to be the "gateway drug" to my un-retiring from local rock photography.
No Turbo, no RocknationAC: simple as that.

John,
Our friendship began in freshman year of HS and grew stronger along the way. “The Wall” crew hung out all day/everyday, we spent countless hours in T.E.R.M. working on cool production projects, and you were my concert buddy! You took me to my first and only KISS concert (Psycho Circus Tour) and we saw Ricky Martin (you were the only person who was brave enough to go with me)! I’ll remember our Limelight Nights and trips with the crew to the UA with dinner at Friday’s afterwards! Thanks for being so incredibly awesome! You truly are a legend!
Love, Christine

Like many others, I met Turbo on Twitch and started watching his streams almost nightly for almost a year. I very quickly began to think of him as a friend. He was extremely thoughtful, kind, and always gave perspective that I could never think of. I enjoyed our many conversations ranging from games and Pokémon to music and tea. It is extremely hard to say goodbye, but it's never fully feels like goodbye when I can continue to carry all these memories. He was one of the brightest lights in the community he built, as well as the Pokémon community as a whole. I'm going to carry on "Turning it up" to the fullest extent I can. I am going to continue to stay safe, stay rockin', and stay true to myself, just like he taught.

I first found him on TikTok and he was one of the best things to happen to me. I have not been around for that long but I loved his streams and his passion and love for everything especially this awesome little community he has. He got me back into Pokémon and I am grateful for everything he has done. He did nothing but positively impact me and many others that watched his content. Rest in peace to a legend. We will all miss you.

I originally met Turbo John Shatesky way back in 2009 thanks to Michael Friedman of Odd Zero. He made it a point to ensure we knew each other and got connected. In 2010 John and his brother came to me to see if I could help them start up a radio station. From that moment on I did everything I could to help him and his brother Josh run BULLSPIKE Radio. So much so they called me the silent 3rd partner Throughout the years, I did all that I could to ensure they stayed on the air, and had someone behind the scenes who ALWAYS had their back. John was a one of a kind, a true FIGHTER and Warrior. I will NEVER forget you and the impact you had on my life. My last text chain to John was to update his website security certificate which I ran for years. We discussed some business and the passing of his brother. I told him I loved him and he responded as he always did. By saying we were family. I'm going to miss you brother. With all of my heart. "We still have plenty of chaos to cause together..." - Turbo
I love you. Rest in power.

Turbo,
I am not good at this but I will try to see if I can put this in to words. We have lost a great person a brother(from another mother and father) and streamer. It has been a pleasure to know you as we would say my brother from another mother and father. You are a inspiration to all. I am honored to have meet you and see you grow as a person and the community you built in the short time that I knew you. Even tho it was a short time it felt like we knew each other for a lifetime. You helped a lot of people me included and I thank you for that. So In honor of you I will continue Mario Kart nights and call it "Turn It Up Saturday" as a lot of people in the community know. That is my way of showing how much you meant to all of us and to me. You will be surely missed my brother. Like you would say to someone leavening the stream I think it is only fitting we say Stay Safe, Stay Rocking and Stay True To Yourself.
Much Love
Cipherheart

Turbo had such a strong sense of community and welcomed everyone into it with open arms and nothing shy of 110% love. Both on and off stream he was a bright light that was able to warm the coldest of days and light up the darkest of days. That light still shines within the lives of everyone he’s met and within all of the hearts he has touched.

I am so grateful that I had met you, Turbo. You were always kind and welcoming to people that had found their way to your channel and a lot of us stuck around because of that. You were also hilarious with your jokes and fun to play with in Pokémon raids and karts. I was introduced to you from a raid on kart night back when they were on Fridays and meeting you was one of the best things to happen to me. I’d just like to thank you for the great times and the way you’ve influenced us all. I know you’re in a better place where you’re reunited with Jay, Theo, and Harley. The Turbo Crew will forever cherish the memories we’ve had with you.
It has been an honor rocking with you and the Turbo Crew.

Turbo, You were a loving soul who was taken from us too early. It was and always will be an honor to have been able to call you a friend. Even with the struggles you've been given, you kept a smile on your face and brightness in your heart. You may be gone now but the Turbo crew will always stay to honor the legacy you've left behind. They say goodbye is forever, but the memories made from the beginning will always be part of what made this community. I'll always cherish those memories of us playing in the Dynamax adventures and those stubborn shiny hunts. May your legacy stay with us forever and beyond. Stay rocking and true to yourself wherever you may be Turbo, We love you. Turn it up!

My mate Turbo,
It is rare for me to click with someone as well as I did with Turbo. When I finished my late shifts at work in the UK and needed something to unwind to, Turbo was there, from Mario Kart to Zelda and my favourite, Pokemom SV shenanigans. He never let his disability stop him from doing as much as he did with his content and has achieved so much in such a short period of time. Let us celebrate a life of which we all cherish as a ROCKIN' community!
Rest easy.

I’m not good at these types of things but for turbo and his family I must try!
Turbos streams allowed me to have a place to go in and have fun with! He was one of my favorite streamers, top 3! I remember that first day when I joined the stream and never wanted to leave it because of how I could just go in there and he was welcoming to all. Turbo was the type of person that would put a smile on my face no matter what kind of day it was. I also loved the little welcome back song he sang when I came back from a BRB and the advice he gave me about life. But now it’s time for you to rest in peace brother and we all love you and we will continue to Turn it up!
Condolences to all of Turbos family.

Turbo,
The world lost a real one! I wish I could put in to words how you have touched all of us. From things as simple as “Goodmorning all, have a rockin <insert day of the week>” , or even a announcement letting us know how you have been feeling, you never lost that positive attitude. No matter the obstacle, that did not deter you from being you! One thing you have taught me is to never take anything for granted, to always see the rainbow at the end of the dark cloud. You always know the right things to say to everyone, despite the challenges you faced daily. You taught us all strength, and resilience, and how to be truly happy. Your memory will always live on!
Wherever your spirit is right now - stay safe, stay rockin, and stay true to yourself and we will see you soon

Turbo,
You are one of the best and kindest person I knew on this planet. I will always remember the fun times we had be with us setting up for the next big tera and working out are strategies and pokemon to us, to playing some Mario kart. I always had a blast and thanked you for it. You have created a great community, for everyone to feel they can be themselves and have fun. I am going to miss our chats and fun times. It was a pleasure knowing you for the time I did.

The picture here is one of many great memories with Turbo this one is when he dressed up as Pikachu for his stream
I honestly don't even know where to start I guess lets start at the beginning I found Turbo on twitch around two years ago with him shiny hunting. His channel was all around positive vibes. That's how I met him and how thousands of others have also met him. Turbo was one of the best people I've ever met, he was always so kind and generous. He was so genuine with people always staying real, he told chat he was 100% transparent and as a member of his moderator team I can tell you he was 100% transparent and I respect him a lot for that. He always cared for you whether you showed up one time or a hundred times to his streams. He always had the time to listen to you and give support no matter the circumstances. He honestly helped me become a better person. Despite what life threw at turbo he always persevered. He was truly an inspiration. Seeing all the posts in his Discord server I think is a true testament to Turbo accomplishing his goal of having a loyal and strong supportive community. I wish he stayed longer to accomplish his other goal of being the voice of the disabled twitch community but life sucks sometimes and you don't always get what you want and we have to live with that, we have to cherish the memories we have with our loved ones while not regretting what could've been.
As Turbo used to say signing off on his streams Stay Safe, Stay Rockin, Stay True to Yourself and remember to TURN IT UP!!!!

Turbo was one of the best people I’ve ever had the opportunity to meet. Even if it was only through streams online, you left such an impact on so many peoples lives. You encouraged us to be proud of who we are and to spread love and joy to everyone. You’ve made a wonderful community full of amazing individuals. I will be forever grateful that I was able to be a part of the Turbo Crew and I will always be turning it up wherever I go. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us as a community.
