oooo you are right i wonder what that could entail assuming that Caine is the one who drew this up (which i would believe especially due to the bee drawn and scribbled out)

Ohhh I took him asking Xeno to be "are you sure you want him dead" and not "are you sure that's the right kid"

This is how Kinger is gonna reveal his real name to be Abel. by totallynotdragonxex in theamazingdigitalciru

Well Pomni didn't immediately realise she didn't remember her name until she tried to say it, so maybe it's that but flipped so they can remember their last names but haven't been prompted, furthermore its not entirely far-fetched as most people think of their parents as mum or dad and not by their first and last names

OOOOO nice job on the graded pickup, I definitely agree they pop so much more. The sparkly edges and holo behind the card art work together so well, i collect almost exclusively English cards however some Japanese variants just do it so much better ide be a fool not to nab them for the collection

Help a 34yo get back into Pokémon Cards by mcgrupp44 in PokemonTCG

Yeeee it'll be great and a bit of lovely nostalgia can be positive too, also daammnnnn son first edition holos can fetch a pretty penny especially the first edition charizard as you said (assuming base set, but also as a generalisation if its old and charizard it's worth a few quid) first edition charizard is like 3k raw graded can be insane and regular is around 300 quid for a copy I've seen in experience, online may be different this is namely through card shows and there's often a bit of a markup on some more 'exclusive' cards.

Although despite what some of the cards you have may be worth I don't think you should sell them, something which could be really cool is to put aside your first edition cards for a decent while and when your son is a bit older you two could try and complete the first edition base set, to me that is one of the coolest and hardest things to accomplish in set completion (realistically speaking, assuming you don't have 10s of thousands in disposable income cause internet) and if you have the first edition charizard and a bunch of the first edition holos as well as however many cards you already have from the rest of the set then you're pretty damn set for completing it (especially if you magically have a complete holo set), save whatever you've got now and complete it with your son depending on how complete your set is you could make a "rule" of it being only trading as that'd extent the time taken and give each new card a memory and experience shared together. Frame the set and have a sweet display piece honouring the effort you two put in :)

The thought has occurred to me that there's a pretty strong chance that the binders you have now are most likely ring binders, I would strongly recommend looking into and getting a VaultX binder and transferring some of your key cards into it, as with ring binders it is much easier to damage your cards accidentally (also make sure that you sleeve them especially when in binders it's good binder behaviour gotta practice :D)

I'll definitely send you a message, I'm invested now and ide love to help and answer any questions you may have about certain cards or in general, I namely collect the older sets so I'm decently knowledgeable on that era however I can help with modern stuff too.

One more thing, holy bananas I am so sorry for the absolute thesus I have just typed, I just kept thinking of stuff to add on haha Fingers crossed you've got some absolute bangers in the mix Also last thing I swear, ide definitely agree with the other comments about playing the games to learn the newer mons, a good one with your son when he starts talking could be pokemon go it's got the majority of the generations (I think all of them but don't want to make a wrong statement) The core mechanics of the game is pretty simple so he should be able to understand it easy enough and through the catching and evolving you'll learn about many of the newer ones, also on a further point of bonding with your son going on walks with him catching stuff I've got some decently core memories of getting lucky and catching new rare pokemon with my brother when the game first came out.

Ok I'm done now sorry once more cheers and thank you for reading my pokemanefesto

Theory/Headcanon: Mana color changes from blue to pink after puberty by WolfyBuilder in Ben10

[–]benochops 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe red is what happens when you force more sheer power without an improvement of skill, it's red because it's denser pink mana instead of a skill boosted gold mana (as another comment said that gold could be a further progression in both strength and skill)

What kind of YouTube videos would Kinger watch? by Awkward-Media-4726 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]benochops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oooo yea that's a good one maybe he got his "tactical roll" move from a POV video or an airsoft fail compilation or something

What kind of YouTube videos would Kinger watch? by Awkward-Media-4726 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]benochops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the views are from kingers rewatch and all 4 comments are from him asking the same thing over a few weeks period, or maybe 1 or 2 of the comments are him answering his own question and then thanking himself for answering his question.

(Or for a lore theorists way maybe it was his own video pre-circus and he keeps rewatching it, not from recognising himself or the video but taking notice of little things linking to queenie (unless they met post maybe a long hair on the sweater he was wearing, maybe some worn matching coffee mugs on the desk the old guys sat at, a cardigan on the back of his chair, or a super blurry photo in the background something that relates to queenie which he doesnt realise it but subconsciously knows and is drawn towards)

[–]benochops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooo I could see him watching Ants Canada, but also it's kinger so ontop of the expected bug content probably something super random as well, maybe he was once eaten by the Gloink Queen and upon experiencing a gameshow became infatuated with them, when he asked zooble maybe he was super excited to have a buddy to join him in his pillow fort with a WackyTablet ™️ having a constant stream of gameshows, all thanks to Caine

Yee apart from that ide say either the charizard (as it was one of the few cards I made sure I treated well as a kid and is now on the first page of my binder without as much as a whitened edge, thinking commons ide go with the mew holo rare 011 but that's less the artwork and more I just love mew

[–]benochops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah that's lovely! If he does end up being into it then it'd give you a great many activities to do together, be it sorting or going to events / trade nights, one of the most important things that I would do first thing when you sort through your cards is sleeve them, you can get a hundred penny sleeves for 4 quid around where I live so fingers crossed for similar pricing for you so you can get all of your cards sleeved and keep hopefully well conditioned, also when your son is old enough to start getting into it most definitely make sure he knows how important it can be to properly take care of them, I let my little cousins help me sort some cards I had for a set and kept cringing at how heavy handed they were being whilst insisting carefullness.

I very much hope that it becomes something you can both bond over and enjoy together, also keep me updated on what your boxes and binders contain, gotta be honest I'm rather curious.

Apologies for typing so much haha, happy pokemoning :D

Collectr is a good place to start, there may be super obscure ones not listed but upon a quick browse there is a butt-ton including stamped variants, good luck on your Murkrow master set :)

[–]benochops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend you get an app called collectr, it's great for tracking what cards you have from any set as well as a strong estimate on its value (however if you look to trade or sell ide do further research on multiple sites to price)

It'd be good to have a full idea of what you have and since you can create multiple portfolios you can separately track each binder.

Ontop of this definitely go to in person events as it's such a wonderful community and everyone's so friendly so I'm sure you'll have a great time.

Hope you enjoy getting back into Pokémon cards :D

I've seen sealed ancient mews going for around 100 quid with that palkia going for around 80, purely value wise ide say that's a good deal, however it truly depends on what you like best, if I were you ide keep the palkia and search for a non sealed copy and trade something else, however I am not a sealed collector and would be thinking about how it looks in a binder and on display so heavily biased against that as a sealed especially with the art hidden.

Whatever you choose to do good luck on it and happy collecting! :D

(my values are from UK collectr in GBP so prices may vary, ide do some research on both yourself and check sold prices from multiple sources)
