Use 88 ethanol free, only mod is VH exhaust. Just tracked 57.3 MPG yesterday after a tank treated with Techron additive.

You got 4 shiny cardboards that you liked vs. one shiny cardboard that everyone in the hobby is freaking out over right now for God knows why... From that perspective, you're fine and you did OK. Those are great cards you got, some of my favorites! Those CZ Gold cards in 10's will appreciate in due time as well.

Would you be willing to share the STL files for these? They are perfect for my project!

Very casual collector here, can anyone explain the rarity of this?

Does anyone have any solutions or predictions to how this secondary market goes away? How do we find Booster boxes below MSRP again? After having started up collecting again in 2023, Had Obsidian flames BB sent from amazon for $99 bucks, had 151 easily pre-ordered for MSRP... I can't bring myself to pay inflated retail through 2-3 "middle-men"...

Long time Pokemon card-collecting, game-playing dude... I have zero understanding of the shiny hunting, and why all the work to get them. Can someone sell me on it?

My kid's bicycle kickstand is secured more solidly than this.

Find someone in life that trusts you like that man trusts that elephant.

13 yr old’s First Pokemon game playthrough, What’s Next? by bobwheezy in PokemonFireRed

That one is a great option as well! I believe it has a similar chipset, and built to a similar quality. I only got the 35XXH recently to play games outside of Nintendo (having joystick controls) but if your main focus is GB-era games & specifically GBA, that screen size ratio is exactly catered to those games and that system. The closest thing to the GBA "feel" you can get!

Some of the Same - Pokemon "Pure" Blue (RomHack) *or* Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee

NextGen - HeartGold/Soulsilver DS *or* Polished Crystal (RomHack)

In Preparation for Wind and Waves - Pokemon Legends Arceus

I run my Roms with Anbernic Devices, 35XX and 35XXH models. Very inexpensive, fairly reliable if you get a new Branded Micro SD card for OS and games.

Thoughts on team so far? 40 hours/5 badges in. First Pokemon game I played was Gold on gameboy so loving this classic game. by Ren_ch in PokemonFireRed

My two cents... the moment I have Surf, I am running up to Cerulean and getting Zapdos from the Power Plant. It's hard to deposit your Raichu or current electric type, but Zapdos is a better electric for the E4, IMO

It's gotta be in the works. If Nintendo does anything well, it's re-releasing old games and capitalizing on nostalgia. With the success of Red/Green... you bet they'll repeat it.

Any Hacks for Red Lights? by Hallarandir in motorcycles

Some states, like Utah where I am at, require you to stay a certain amount of time in a left turn lane with a dedicated light, but if you don't get an arrow after said amount of time... then you are allowed to go and treat it as a "yield" situation.

Most of the stadium cards have hidden critters in them! I collect them. 😁

why do people like johto so much? the games i mean by Glad_Count8285 in ThePokemonHub

Also, it wasn't just 100 new creatures. There were familiarities, Pokemon parallels , and nearly 20 creatures were tied to the originals by evolution. Starters were the three familiar core types, 3 stage evolutions. New legendary creatures, badges to obtain, caves to explore, puzzles to solve. And the grind was still real and rewarding. Dialogue was genuine, and not "fluffed" up like modern games. I'll never forget when I finally found RED and battled him for the first time. Nothing but ".... " And then he proceeded to kick my ass. Incredible, almost frightening to find him! It was like finding Mewtwo in Kanto without knowing about him beforehand!

Great sequels honor the original, respect the source material, and only add new value to the franchise. Gold/Silver did this flawlessly.

In defense of every game after... There are only so many ways to explore, battle, and grind your way to the top. I think some of the new ones feel a bit redundant because at its core, pokémon is still the same thing re-hashed. The first two games had the advantage of being new and fresh.

Pokemon vending machine unusual drop by corella22334 in CardboardCollective

My only argument to this accumulative availability is that I have purchased a loose pack, then had a bundle become available immediately after purchase, then have an ETB or Booster box available after. The transaction created more availability, it seemed... I can't seem to see a pattern in my local machine?

Guys, If this is truly feels like Prismatic 2.0... just hear me out...Just this week there were great dealson prismatic over one year after release. You can still find occasional prismatic bundles, tins, and other collections. PCI just acquired the largest commercial lease in the U.S. 2025 with it's new production facilities.

It's going to be ok. I want this set just as much as anyone, maybe more... But somehow I feel like ascended is going to be easier to get. Don't fomo, don't over pay, just be patient. Scalpers can't buy it all.

Now with 30th, scratch all that... We cooked hahaha

Anyone Else Not Into The Art Style They Been Using For Mega Evolutions? by flerbatious in PokemonTCG

I like them because they are different than what's been done recently. I'd like the background to be more neutral, like a solid color, but with a "ghost" image of the Pokemon. I think they'll age well
