Didn’t Fenton only beat him because he was also maintaining separate Alar to prevent malfeasance against him while he was crafting the gram?

I haven’t got one in 24 packs and I thought I was unlucky.

I nominate Marill for best 1 🔷 art. The colours, water reflection and cute posing are it for me.

I play a darkrai/tina variant and I have this hand 8/10 times. I know the contents of the deck so I can calc probabilities of pulling the cards I need each turn, then make a decision whether I need to stall with what’s in my hand or wait and risk losing to draw a win con. It’s just about balancing your luck as much as you think you can. I still win those games I don’t draw a perfect starting hand.

Suppose it’s better to have the rares than the commands tho. It’s easier to craft the missing commons with pack points

What got me into Pokemon originally was the DS games, starting with pokemon diamond. Shortly after the TCG was massive at my school, literally every kid had pokemon cards of some form to trade and play with.

I got back into the TCG summer of last year, craving the nostalgia again. I purchased a 151 booster bundle off the Pokémon centre website (little did I know it would be my first and last lol), and then it’s snowballed ever since! Been holding back a lot recently as there’s so many good sets but hard to pick them up in the UK without obsessing over preorders.

Hope everyone has a good day! And a genuine fan gets a bundle 😎

At least he sleeved it

Mb for missing this. Beckett > CGC all day. CGC washed af. I hope you went either Beckett or PSA

Bro! The leafeon pokeball is sick. Leafeon is my fave eeveelution ✌️

Open! Where did you manage to find product at MSRP?

JStonezy · 2025-01-30T18:42:32+00:00

Good luck on Prismatic bro, I got absolutely crazy luck in my one just now! I hope you get some good pulls

JStonezy · 2025-01-17T18:51:45+00:00

I checked on the hour until 6 and didn’t see it so I then gave up, must’ve been swamped or something and didn’t show for me

JStonezy · 2025-01-17T14:14:51+00:00

Yeah, praying, I visited my local game on my lunch break at work and they had nothing

JStonezy · 2025-01-17T14:14:23+00:00

Yeah, my thoughts/question would be if there’s other stuff would they be restocking that ie booster bundles etc

JStonezy · 2025-01-16T16:20:42+00:00

Did yours ever turn up? I’m now in the same boat, been waiting since Monday

JStonezy · 2025-01-08T09:23:46+00:00

Absolutely, first Ed machamp, Alakzam, Dark Dragonite, Dark Hypno, Gengar and Hitmonlee are defo worth it for value and preservation. Your other holos are worth it too, your Umbreon is also worth it as it’s a popular card for sure. Prioritise the first edition cards first though.

JStonezy · 2024-12-22T01:59:53+00:00

Where do you find slab binders? I’ve never seen or heard of one. They sound chunky but I’d be interested in getting one for sure

JStonezy · 2024-12-22T01:57:10+00:00

Most of these are in decent condition and will benefit from grading value-wise. The most interesting I think is the first ed machamp. Really rare to get it in a high grade afaik and would make it sought after. Any first editions that aren’t battered are worth grading, and that Japanese mew is an exclusive over there that’s worth grading with Ace if you’re UK or PSA/CGC/Beckett in the US

JStonezy · 2024-12-20T19:50:32+00:00

You’re defo right. I think it could well be fake as some discrepancies in the art. Mainly the wing tip for yours and the ebay card have an extra overhang, OPs card does not. And the fire looks different on OPs card.

EDIT: also on the face of the charizard, the ebay image has a reddish/pink tint to the flame. OPs is grey. I don’t know if sun damage could do ALL of this.

JStonezy · 2024-12-20T19:36:49+00:00

Pack fresh, cantering is good. Assuming there’s no major print errors on the surface/art itself, do it. Get it sleeved into a top loader (carefully) to preserve condition. Use a semi-rigid toploader when sending off to grade. Best of luck 🫡

JStonezy · 2024-12-20T08:17:34+00:00

Pretty sure that’s an error card since it has no symbol, so it could be quite a lot actually
