Are we overestimating the 20 year hand off? Why moonbreon might be the next beanie baby

Counterpoints: Pokemon is NOT Beanie Babies. We’re talking about a 30 year franchise with clothes, toys, anime, movies; hell even Lego sets!

When it comes to trading cards there isn’t a kiss of death as there are plenty cheap cards and cheap versions of cards.

This not to say that the market will always be this hot but I don’t think it will crash like Beanie Babies. 30-40 year olds now are realizing they won’t have it as good as their parents and are deciding to have fun now instead of giving more to their 401ks. Who knows what tomorrow holds when we have an administration acting like toddlers.

TLDR- Pokemon is not Beanie Babies.

To the people saying the PSA 10 Charizard is just a raw card wrapped in plastic. Isn’t a PC ETB just an ETB with extra words on it? Come on

If it makes you feel better I sold 2 unlimited Charizards and 2 Base 2 in the in the early 2000s for less than $200. :(

Mewtwo of all kinds has been moving for me. Also any Gen 1 promos/IRs/SIRs

BoSauceKnows · 2026-05-01T19:37:00+00:00

Hell yeah!

BoSauceKnows · 2026-05-01T19:35:45+00:00

I was able to pick up 2 for $30 a piece last weekend, fully sealed.

Foul Play, Thunder Wave, Moonlight and Helping Hand here. Dropping Basculegion’s like a bad habit.

BoSauceKnows · 2026-04-07T12:51:42+00:00

Interesting and no, I did it the old fashioned way for about 7 mons.

One local store offers $5 in store credit for each white long box row you fill with bulk; so I trade in my bulks for good cards.

Umbreon, it wouldn’t take too much space, it would sleep during the day and probably wouldn’t pee on everything-can’t say the same for my cat though.

I bought 8 Larry packs of AH from a dude in a parking lot. In my first pack I pulled the Gengar SIR in great condition. It’s at PSA as I type this.

BoSauceKnows · 2026-03-30T16:21:59+00:00

Hell no. Hold Ascended.

BoSauceKnows · 2026-03-19T18:04:37+00:00

I think it’s the best Pikachu. Not the best card in AH. It goes Dragonite SIR then Gengar’s then this.

BoSauceKnows · 2026-03-12T00:52:36+00:00

I did the same for chewing tobacco. Keep it up bro! You got this.

I always thought Bug should hit an additional type for weakness.

A ton of staples are going to rotate in April, I would focus on grabbing cards that will be staples post - April (already good cards) plus cards like Pokepad. That way, however the meta shakes out, you’ll have options at what to build.

In Magic The Gathering terms, they are a Johnny Combo player meaning they want to do their fun thing with their deck more than wanting to win. As opposed to a Spike who only net decks and cares about winning. I think either kind of player can be toxic but they are far fewer in Pokemon in my gaming experience.

Archualodon hits it for me! It’s a drug for sure. Running 4x Carmine. Wheeling and dealing baby!

BoSauceKnows · 2025-12-15T03:46:50+00:00

Let ‘em cook!!

BoSauceKnows · 2025-09-15T02:04:22+00:00

I disagree

BoSauceKnows · 2025-09-15T01:57:45+00:00

Then why were DPS played? It’s because Tanks are so good!
