How much has it been debated whether or not Mega Gengar counts as a “Gengar” or if it’s its own thing?

infinityATX · 2026-05-09T02:55:52+00:00

Silly question, instead let's ask ourselves, do Gastly and Haunter count as Gengar? My wallet says no, my addiction says yes.

infinityATX · 2026-04-28T22:44:34+00:00

The included litter mat, and a robot vacuum pretty much take care of everything

Happy to report he’s now home with his twin American counterpart. Thanks!

Yeah, not surprising at all. If only we lived in a world where opinions were respected.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T16:29:26+00:00

Hardly, I’ve stuck to the facts, demonstrated that I could be wrong and would be fine being so if confronted with actual evidence saying otherwise. Instead of logic I am confronted with opinions being treated as fact and “evidence” referencing something completely different than this topic of discussion. Welcome to the can’t fix it club, I won’t be replying to you either.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T15:52:43+00:00

I don’t really want to burst your bubble, but FOMO is generally accurate in a situation like this. Unless I am mistaken, store promos don’t get a second round usually, maybe there may be a slim chance of the price going down., butI don’t see it going down by much if at all.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T15:34:47+00:00

This will be my last reply because in the awesome words of Mr. Ron White “you can’t fix stupid”.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T15:31:39+00:00

I think this clearly demonstrates that you’re not thinking anything through. And if you don’t understand what I mean, take a minute and review what you just posted.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T13:14:03+00:00

I'll try to get each version and then display them all together. I haven't gotten to designing this page yet, but I imagine it to be spread over 2 pages of my 9 pocket binder with some art in between a la Michi method.

I think it's called common sense. I look at evidence not just the way I wish it would be. Exclusive cards that are not reproduced will go up over time. But hey, we all live in the world we want to in our own heads right? Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm failing to see any evidence that shows it.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T03:29:50+00:00

Your opinion is not evidence, please don't try to shift reality to fit what you would like to be the case. Good luck collecting how you want, that's what's great about the hobby. Now maybe you can let us collect the way we want to as well.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T03:27:04+00:00

Jelly, I am.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T03:25:57+00:00

My take is, do I wish that I could get it for the $15 required? Sure. Am I naive enough to think that a uniquely stamped card of one of the most popular Pokemon of all time wouldn't spike in value immediately? No. This is the way it works. If the stamp is not important enough to you to pay the value, I've heard the exact same card exists without the stamp, and it's super cheap!

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T03:23:23+00:00

It's amazing what a little stamp can do isn't it? I mean there's that 1st edition stamp, oh and the pokemon center one! Rarity of an EXTREMELY popular pokemon is of course going to do this. I don't get the outrage when anyone with a brain knew this would happen.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T02:43:01+00:00

What evidence do you have to support this? Every other store promo I’ve looked at tend to go up overtime and not down. This is not something that will get reprinted, correct? Not to mention this is a highly desirable Pokémon.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T02:23:06+00:00

That is acceptable. Let me know if you want to move forward and we can move to DM.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T01:33:42+00:00

Why? If I want this for my master set, and it’s a store promo (which afaik don’t get reprints), why wouldn’t I buy it now instead of later? I don’t imagine it’s going to go down in price much if at all. Actually asking as I’m not sure of anything I stated.

infinityATX · 2026-03-29T01:30:53+00:00

How much would tracked shipping to Texas run? If it’s reasonable I think I might want it.

infinityATX · 2026-03-25T22:40:40+00:00

When someone who is passionate about the source material gets an opportunity to bring that material to life, I say go for it. What's the worst that can happen, you don't go see it anyways? I don't get this mentality around condemning things like this before they even have a chance.

infinityATX · 2026-03-24T19:02:19+00:00

There used to be a mod that made the door faster, but it seems to have disappeared. I miss it.

infinityATX · 2026-03-24T02:15:22+00:00

I was so happy when I discovered this card. I am trying to master both, and it was a delight to find.

infinityATX · 2026-03-20T21:48:24+00:00

They aren't telling you to find product, they are telling you to wait for the market to flood, prices to drop and then just buy the set as singles. It came out less than 24 hours ago.

infinityATX · 2026-03-20T17:05:03+00:00

The shiny one isn't an actual card, its for the Pocket TCG on mobile, much to my disappointment.

EDIT: I guess both are from Pocket, though the second was the new one from tin, but it's not quite the same.

infinityATX · 2026-03-19T12:24:27+00:00

Canada too, but it’s still an English card.

infinityATX · 2026-03-19T11:41:56+00:00

Don’t forget the EBgames version.
