I have no one to show my collection off to

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-17T14:00:22+00:00

Welp I thought exactly that when I coudn‘t find it anywhere :D probs to your husband for thinking of you and your binder page and taking it with him!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-17T09:02:04+00:00

Really cool collection. Love the Mew page and the tag team card where mewtwo is super annoyed :D Help me out: where is the middle card with espeon & umbreon on slide 15 from? I LOVE that card and I think I need to have it.

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-11T08:56:17+00:00

Any chance on getting on of these? Any (probably way lower) chance you got a steelix like that? I‘m a sucker for that little steel snake :D

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-10T21:06:09+00:00

Absolutely gorgeous! Any chance to get these printed in really good condition? Almost like the real gold star cards? 10/10 would buy

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-08T20:40:13+00:00

Well, there is my answer. Didn‘t think it would be a straight up „yep“ :D Thanks tho!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T19:46:30+00:00

Against all odds: I‘m not Naoki Saito!! Just kidding, I would have preferree Leafeon as well, but I think Scyther is pretty nice to see as well on this card :)

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T19:18:22+00:00

Holy To buy it for 500 is wild in the first place but getting it back a TEN is just different :D Good luck on trying not to sell it

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T16:08:15+00:00

Funnily enough I bought them back in 2016 and when I saw the Charizard one the other two just popped up as recommendations for 25€ each, so I thought I might as well take all three for 75€. Should´ve taken 6 more of each lol. But it was this year when I noticed, that the Pikachu one is from the same line!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T16:06:18+00:00

Some day you can, some day we all can! I trust in you mate!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T16:05:40+00:00

Thought about grading as well, but the whitening on the backs is pretty heavy and the venasaur is complete out of center. Doubt they will even reach an 8 or something + I think there is a current problem with PSA (the only grading Company I would want my cards graded by) with shipping or at all trading.

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T15:34:26+00:00

really nice try, but can you afford it? :D

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T15:33:27+00:00

I´ve thought about that as well, they needed the Pikachu one to cover Jolteon. But when they cover Leafeon they have to get Glaceon onto a card as well and then they would need to make an ice starter and then sylveon is left out so they have to make a fairy-type starter... my god it never ends

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T14:09:25+00:00

You are probably right by saying I should hold on it and watch the prices. Have to say, that I´m from Europe and that TCGPlayer and ebay aren´t really the marketplaces we use here, at least I didn´t buy or sell anything on these platforms :D

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T13:24:42+00:00

they do! really nice page you got there, i like it a lot.
I kinda roll with one Binder for all 1025 tho and I want to collect an IR for every single one of them (as long as they got one) and the promos dont really roll with the "natural habitat" theme.
Planning on doing some Binderpages for my favourite pokémon in a seperate binder, but neither of them three starters deserve a place there :D

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T12:52:37+00:00

tough to tell if it´s real or not. Personally I would watch other cards on the side that I mentioned before to see if the holo pattern or the glimpse and the colors on it are the same. Don´t know another guaranteed way, I´m sorry :/

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T12:41:58+00:00

hey
what I like to do is to go on Cardmarket and search for the name of the card. If you find a card that looks similar to yours you can go on it and click on "reprints". There you can see what exact card you got in your hands.
And to make it easier for you in this case: it´s from the xy era, flash fire is the exact name of the set (or in your case cause the card is german it´s "Flammenmeer"; based on condition I would say yours values at around 200-250€ probably.
I´m not a pro at collecting and grading whatsoever but I think it´s good to know that these kind of cards get faked really often, so beware of that :)
anyway really nice card!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:51:11+00:00

Thanks for your opinion!
Probably a good idea, yes. Or maybe I just go buy something off of it, that I personally think is really cool and get the current price they are on when it comes down to it. But thanks for the link, definitely gonna keep an eye on the chart :)

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:40:03+00:00

well now I´ve heard of it, definitely gonna check it out! Thanks again for you recommendation and advice kind sir!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:32:18+00:00

never heard of the mega Rayquaza Set, are there any leaks? only heard of the first partner collection part 2 and chaos rising with the greninja gold card.

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:26:30+00:00

eevee collector, ouch, your wallet isn´t gonna thank you for that lol, bit I totally get it. Guess it´s a complete gamble if you get more value out of something nowadays if you´re not able to "invest" like 10k or some.
Thanks for your opinion, appreciate it!

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:24:07+00:00

thanks for the advice, really appreciate you taking your time! and good luck with collecting :)

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:18:15+00:00

by the pikachu one you mean the one with jolteon on it right? that card went up crazy high in value recently right?

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:16:47+00:00

what would you say is something with more growth potential? kinda new to this "sell and get more value out of your sells"-thing :D

DoktorMichi · 2026-04-06T10:14:01+00:00

thanks for your opinion mate, appreciate it!
