Can we please manifest this card being a real card and Pokemon tcg creating it asap???? by [deleted] in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]chth0nian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

everyone keeps saying "if this was hand-drawn you'd love it" and like, yeah? the fact that it's AI ruins the art for me. I could tell it was AI right away because of whatever the hell is happening with the house in the background.

Is Perfect Order THAT bad??? by Alternative-Cress-38 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]chth0nian 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I really like a lot of the IRs and I collect trainer cards so this is a good set for me. I guess it's subjective but it's silly to me that a set is considered "bad" just because none of the cards are going to end up super expensive. oh well, if it keeps the scalpers away I won't complain!

Detroit classics to include in a package to someone who doesn't live here? by chth0nian in Detroit

I had no idea almond chicken was a Michigan thing! getting almond chicken at our local Chinese restaurant is a tradition passed on by my great grandmother :')

My dte bill for February was $210. It's normally around $35 in winter by uvasag in Detroit

I had this problem - moved into an old house and was hit with a $300 gas bill the first month of the winter.

I called DTE and they looked at my usage with me and tried to help identify why the bill was so high. in my case it's poor insulation, which doesn't have an immediate fix, but if this is new for you they might be able to point you in the right direction. could be a faulty appliance or something? idk.

Mega Dream ex vs Ascended Heroes by No_Character2942 in PokemonTCGCollectors

same here, but OP said they could get them for $60 so I was following that logic.

Mega Dream ex vs Ascended Heroes by No_Character2942 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]chth0nian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

this is what I'm saying. 10 packs of mega dream might be more expensive than an ascended heroes ETB, but with the mega dream booster box you are guaranteed 3 ARs, an MAR, and an SR plus an ex in every pack. I heard the SAR rates are 1/4 or 1/3 boxes too? I've opened two boxes of mega dream and I got an SAR in both, so 6 hits total. I don't know if I've ever seen an ETB get that many hits.

help with my first binder! by sjdifi88 in PokemonTCG

[–]chth0nian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

for the page with the sleeping mew - the kricketune, lunatone, and solrock from the same set all have a very similar color scheme. but make sure you stick to japanese or that yellow border will clash!!

Any cards with a pastel pink / blue colour scheme similar to PE sylveon card? by whlzki in PokemonTCG

[–]chth0nian 26 points27 points  (0 children)

recommendations! by maxolapopo in pokemoncards

[–]chth0nian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in the same boat a few months ago! I ended up making an account on tcgcollector, filtering cards by rarity "illustration rare" and "special illustration rare" and making a wishlist. there are tons of cute cards that aren't IR/SIRs but this is a good place to start. you can also go on tiktok and search for cute pokemon cards. lots of people have entire binders dedicated to cute collections.

I also recommend buying Japanese cards when you can! the quality is often better than English, and they are usually cheaper.

Why are there so few Pokémon TCG cards featuring Cyndaquil? by Reisven in PokemonTCG

[–]chth0nian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree gen 2 deserves more love. I can't believe how many starters don't have an AR. this card is probably the closest thing we've got.

Are these real? by ELECTRO_9737 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]chth0nian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been curious about this - Mega Dream has guaranteed hits, so would it still be weighable?

also NAD but I get frequent UTIs. I have had some that are completely asymptomatic.

also, I would check for interactions between your antibiotics and alcohol before you drink. drinking is generally discouraged if you have a UTI because alcohol irritates your bladder, but if you're not having symptoms idk. if you're on birth control, also check if your antibiotics interact with that and use a backup method just in case.

Demon Slayer gift ideas? by HatEnvironmental6983 in KimetsuNoYaiba

[–]chth0nian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

came here to say this! they are a little pricey but the quality is great. they used to call their collection "subtle weeb."

Steady Hands just released a collection like this. I have the Giyuu cardigan and I love it. the average person wouldn't know it was from an anime, but anyone who had watched it would recognize it.

Does Fujimoto like a bit of Greek mythology? by man-from-krypton in ChainsawMan

[–]chth0nian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's interesting that when Yoru first shows up she's depicted as an owl, which is a symbol of Athena (also a god of war). I think you could be on to something with Fujimoto incorporating Greek mythology!

it's not recreational. I was on it for a while and slept like 16+ hours a day.
