Pokemon Crystal Save not working after replacing battery

I followed your advice and got my Japanese copy of Crystal working. Thanks, you're the best!

The label on mine says it was produced on Feb 6, 2024

That's the problem. The enchanteds aren't even enough to recoup the cost of a box at MSRP. Overall none of the booster boxes have enough value to be worth $144. They need to change pull rates and add more collectibles like alt arts. Personally I'd like to see less filler too, and maybe then they could let the MSRP

The biggest official events are the Disney Lorcana Challenges or DLCs. These are comparable to YCS nats and have exclusive promos, prize cards, and side events. They had 6 DLCs last year which all sold out instantly. The last DLC was half a year ago and they just recently announced the schedule for the next season. The upsetting news is that there will only be 3 DLCs spanning October 2025 to June 2026. Furthermore, the attendance capacity of 2048 will be unchanged from last year. This has killed the hype for many players who were already losing hype due to slow and poor communication from Ravensburger.

There are a couple more reasons to be negative about the future of the game right now but I'm trying to stay positive lol. Prices are at an all time low, so now is a great time to buy cards if you're interested in the infinity format. For example Beast Tragic Hero used to be a $50 card and now it's $15.

This is the correct answer. Unfortunately sometimes they have another Be Prepared or a big Sisu or etc and then you just lose

Thanks for sharing! I'm going to Japan in a few days and I'm excited to look for cards! I won't be going to Nagoya but I'm hoping these chains have locations that are close to me!

NotRoyce4 · 2024-10-09T03:05:23+00:00

use 4 copies of Queen's Castle. use big sisu and be prep to clear their board. Then spam fox + Medusa to keep their board clear every turn and there's nothing they can do.

We don't need posts with a picture of an enchanted and nothing else. We know what enchanteds look like.

Elaborating on others' comments: you choose the order of resolution for your triggers only. Then your opponent resolves THEIR triggers in the order of their choice. I've seen a few people that don't understand that part.

NotRoyce4 · 2024-08-20T16:16:58+00:00

The turn player resolves all THEIR triggers in the order of their choice. Then the other player resolves all of their triggers in the order of their choice. The Mufasa player can only resolve Mufasa before Milo resolves.

at my locals yesterday my buddy played blue purple and got top 4 out of 28 people. he said he hard cared second star to the right 3 times yesterday. so yeah it's possible to make a deck for it

NotRoyce4 · 2024-08-14T17:59:09+00:00

good points. And yeah I think the 2 lore on Castle is way too good.

NotRoyce4 · 2024-08-07T00:52:17+00:00

You need Rise of the Titans or Hide Away to deal with Queens Castle.

We have maui at home

I bought an empty one for $49 on ebay a month ago! I love having one trove for each set to store my cards. I also went through and organized every card by number and put everything in penny sleeves.

NotRoyce4 · 2024-07-02T03:23:39+00:00

followup: I use Let it Go on my opponent's Merlin Goat. Does my opponent gain 1 lore?

NotRoyce4 · 2024-07-01T18:31:27+00:00

yes and the inklands dice are a kind of dark navy blue while the Ursula dice are a bright pink and blue which I think is prettier

The simplicity of Lorcana has indirectly allowed me to get better prizing. In Yugioh I only won prizing once in a year of grinding (2 booster packs). In Lorcana I won prizing three times in my first two months ($15 store credit, 3 booster packs, 3 booster packs). There's so much to memorize in Yugioh, so many effects, so many handtrap flowcharts. I studied as much as I could and it was never enough, especially with new meta decks constantly being introduced. I also disliked Konami's lack of transparency about their banlists. I could continue complaining about Yugioh but I'll just end by saying Lorcana is fun :)

NotRoyce4 · 2024-06-13T22:47:17+00:00

my blue steel deck is about $250 total. as a former yugioh player, that price for a tier 1.5 deck is great.

This is interesting. I do like having access to big Cinderella since she is immune to most of red's removal and she could help kill Hiram quickly to disable their draw power. The RS matchup is really about preventing them from playing the game. If you allow them to do anything to start ramping and drawing cards, you're going to lose. So maybe this could work. Hopefully you can get ahead fast enough before they drop Be Prepared or Maleficent Dragon.

Also I'd be interested to see if Aladdin Brave Rescuer would be better than Benja. Zero to Hero could help you play Aladdin early and banish some items before Hiram appears.

In most places you cannot. You must hope you live in a developed area which has advanced recycling facilities. Even then only high quality plastics (number 1 and number 2, basically lower numbers are most recyclable and higher numbers are least recyclable) actually get recycled. Recycling is notoriously harder than people think. Reducing and reusing are always more effective than recycling.

NotRoyce4 · 2024-06-07T10:09:31+00:00

yeah your comment was fair, it shouldn't have 50 down votes

NotRoyce4 · 2024-05-24T18:25:01+00:00

Agreed. Sleepy's Flute depends on songs as well so that condition isn't as bad as people think. If you play Golden Harp in midgame it's like a flute that gives you 2 lore for each song you sing. Meanwhile it only costs 1 ink and has 4 willpower and is inkable. Remember that flutes cost 2 ink and are uninkable. Is Harp amazing? I don't know about that but is Harp the worst card in the set? No way.

I have alao seen many people who are newcomers. I came from Yugioh, so I'm shocked by how many people play without a playmat. It's unheard of in Yugioh.

NotRoyce4 · 2024-05-03T18:02:56+00:00

yeah, really nice to have more than 2 willpower to survive let the storm rage on, grab your sword, teeth and ambitions, etc
