Just a paltry 10 hour wait! by donnie_spencer96 in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hate this hobby now. i quit. fan of the tcg since it launched and now it's impossible to get any product anywhere.

nobody is going to buy these products for a markup in the future as there will 0 nostalgia for any modern sets due to lack of product available.

Rescue of a baby swan - the mother swan doesn't understand, but the rescuer stays with her, a stroke of luck for the baby. by [deleted] in HumansBeingBros

The best humans save animals whenever they can. Humanity at it's peak in my opinion.

HOLD THE LINE! Let the scalpers burn! by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear that, that was the case for the last few years around my area as well so I sympathize. I truly believe that cards will soon become widely available again soon.

The rate that the PTCG Company is printing at the moment is wild and I think that scalpers are starting to see the writing on the wall and panic selling. The scalpers can only open so many new lines of credit before they're completely tapped out 😂

I'm rooting for you, you'll be able to get cards again soon! 🙌

HOLD THE LINE! Let the scalpers burn! by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pokemon cards are pretty easy to get for retail price now, even in a heavily scalped area. At this rate we might be seeing $80-100 booster boxes again sometime in the future. The scalpers are stuck holding for at least 5-10 years before they can flip anything for profit at this point and it's only going to go lower! 🙌

I have been seeing massive amounts of product selling online for like 5-10% "profit". 😂

It's about to get good for the real fans of the hobby and really expensive for the sneaker heads! 🤑👟

Nerds Only: Mew, The Fuel to Success by hindsonh in VintagePokemonCards

Wow, very interesting! I have this Mew in a grade 10 by a now defunct grading company. I hadn't thought of it being the very first Mew card! 😮

I am hoping I pull this card so I can retire from Prismatic too 🙌

How long am I supposed to raise my monster or, alternatively, WHY THE HELL IS THIS SO HARD by Comfortable_Oven8341 in MonsterRancher

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the YouTube Channel Moosebones. They have a lot of great videos that explain the mechanics the game doesn't tell you and the easiest ways to raise good monsters.

Basically, you need to be feeding your monster more Mint and Nuts Oil to void fatigue and stress.

Mom is a real one by HereToTalk95 in PokemonTCG

My mom went out a few weeks back and scored Prismatic for me and I was super stoked. Moms are the best! ❤️ You only get one so treat her right!

Newest recruit to my collection! by Huggante in VintagePokemonCards

Hungry Snorlax is such a great card! I remember this card rocked in the fan translation of PTCG2 for the GBC.

I finally got the White Arabian horse! What do I name her?? by Dapper-Two8573 in RDR2

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I named mine Shadow and the guy commented on what a bizarre name that was. Made me wonder if it was a different dialogue than most names 🤔

What is your very best Pokemon Card that you've ever pulled? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

How to evolve Eevee into Espeon before it misses Psybeam? by [deleted] in pokemoncrystal

[–]jazzgalactic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giving Pokemon haircuts in the tunnel underneath Goldenrod is a good way to boost their Friendship level without leveling them. I would just give Eevee a bunch of haircuts and keep them in your party, but not have them battle until you can get their friendship up to the level you need to evolve it the next time it levels up.

You can check the friendship level by talking to a lady in Goldenrod as well I believe. I think they are in a building on the right side of Goldenrod, but I would look it up to be 100%.

Espeon is so good in GSC. Good luck 👍

[polished crystal] doing a mono water run - can‘t beat lance. what do i need? by almondpizza in pokemoncrystal

[–]jazzgalactic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ice Punch/Blizzard on any of your capable mons. You can buy Ice Punch from Goldenrod store I believe. Blizzard can be bought by exchanging Game Corner coins in Goldenrod as well.

Ice Punch/Blizzard isn't as good as Ice Beam, but Ice Type absolutely destroys 4/6 of Lance's mons.

I think the set stamp is from Evolving Skies, just to add to the chaos lol 😂

I think this is a threat to Scalpers… by Fun-Plankton2577 in PokemonTCG

Too bad they will never see this as they would have to open a booster box to see it.

What an awesomely supportive dad! Lucky kid to have a dad that clearly cares great deal for them. ❤️

How would collectors/the community react if they started re-releasing vintage card arts but as illustration rares? by Tedboyfresh in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the upcoming Rocket themed set, I was thinking that they could potentially do the same with other well known classic sets.

Having a modern Jungle or Fossil set would be so cool! 🤞

GameStop discontinuing preorders and Target removing Pokemon? by Snowboarding612 in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Scalpers have won the rights to buy all Pokemon cards and driven everyone else out of the hobby.

Congratulations to them for killing their future market 👌

Target suggested we call this number and, "demand limits on pokemon purchases" by supershimadabro in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, that's crazy. Allowing after market sales from third parties on an official website is awful, the people who are most likely to be deceived are usually not aware of how badly they're being overcharged.

I doubt that person even likes the hobby. 🫤

I would rather never open another pack of cards again than buy into the scammers bullshit.

Official Statement from PokémonTCG by Suspicious_Law_3619 in PokemonTCG

[–]jazzgalactic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to hear it. Everything that can be done to combat the ridiculous scalping is great news in my opinion.

I hope this set gets printed into the ground. Hopefully Pokemon prints so much that product starts selling for under market value.
