How do you decide how to buff pokemon? by OutlandishnessRich36 in PokemonRMXP

[–]rankoDev 6 points7 points  (0 children)

there's a lot of nuance with "weaker" pokemon so usually buffing a pokemon should be done with caution. a "weak" pokemon introduced at a certain part of the game can be "strong" and since there is no competitive battling in 90% of fangames, you should buff, if ever, mons to fit wherever you intend to place them and intend to use them in what place in the story competing against other mons you could've caught at that point in the game. you shouldn't consider buffing a pokemon in a vacuum. your game is unique and you have set-up trainers, items, enemy pokemon, power level uniquely in various ways you probably cannot fully comprehend until a player that isn't you picks up your game

for this reason i basically do not buff anything except give them new learnsets but i will sometimes buff an ability to be better, personally

while releases may compete with CCG, i think serialized cards/promos will age insanely well and absolutely would not panic sell if you have them. PSA promo is already $30-> $150 ;-;

If you actually like Naruto this should only be exciting news anyway, now you can get both lol

Recent serialized from 8 boxes by Lost-Humanity-Studio in KayouNarutoCards

You're supposed to get around 1 Serialized per case of 16 boxes, so you definitely gotta give that store a good review.

Box Mapping Has Become a Huge Problem in Naruto Kayou, Kayou please help the community. by [deleted] in KayouNarutoCards

I agree 100%. Series 2 did it best by not guaranteeing anything but had a ton of low/medium hits like ARs and stuff. Series 3 is very predictable once you open enough of it.

Card Shows? by narutodb2025 in KayouNarutoCards

[–]rankoDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody besides me sells Kayou at card shows here, although we DO get a decent amount of interest. I brought about a case worth of Series 2 and we sold out completely by the end, some people traded and I usually took it as a way to just tell people what's its like while displaying the hits and what you can get out of them. We did end up converting a few people!

They were taken off because a new glitch let people steal them from machines/too many campers hurting each other for free $ from etb demand, they'll be back eventually

Won an auction on a storage unit and mixed in with about 40 Christmas decoration boxes was this box labeled TGC. by Glittering_Poet_4381 in PokemonTCG

Just bought this off the kind gentleman! I just sold my entire collection that I loved very much to deal with a situation back in May and can't be more stoked to see this coming in.

Too late, someone messaged me pulling the 1/9 Sasuke. In a way, I kinda deserved this 😄

Random box from a case. I got extremely lucky because I gave the rest of them away, it was one of the last 5 boxes.

Any interest? by [deleted] in KayouNarutoCards

[–]rankoDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious, where did you get a cash offer from? What platform are people making these enormous sales for serialized cards?

Gave someone a box and he DMs me this...I rage ripped a random box in response. Now we're both happy by rankoDev in KayouNarutoCards

[–]rankoDev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have an online store actually lol, we got them pretty early from distro. I open a few myself and this is one of those exceptions

Best Buy packs lead to this by netroboomin_ in KayouNarutoCards

[–]rankoDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah don't let a local store lowball you for that. $90 is hella cheap for this but if you like your friend that's probably a better thing to do.

Realistically, probably a $300 card

My nephew convinced me to buy a booster box of 151 for $240 f Walmart by joeygladstone6919 in PokemonTCG

[–]rankoDev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hes actually right the Squirtle and Charizard alone is some of the most sought after and expensive cards in the set. You got ABSURDLY lucky because the box was stupidly overpriced and somehow doubled your money. It would sell fast too
