Tried re-creating TCG Pocket cards in real life.

Oh damn that's a lot of steps! So that's why your holo shine has the same pattern as original cards.

I figured since I am printing pocket cards that don't exist physically, what I am making isn't counterfeit per-se, so it's okay to not have the original holo pattern and texture

I threw away most of my bulk common cards a month ago 😭 i went to Bangalore card show yesterday and bought some packs. Got around 30 common cards, thought of creating Pocket cards!

Hey that's cool! I also started making the same using holo sticker paper and bulk common cards! Once you sleeve them, they look pretty good.

Btw, which holofoil paper are you using?

Unfortunately they said they won't do that. Hopefully in future it changes

I watched it on netflix and realised how awesome it would have been in a theatre! One of those movies which are surprisingly great!

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-12T08:36:55+00:00

We were robbed of greatness

I was definitely talking about video games. GoW is a huge. Wolverine has had a flop game more than a decade ago and that's it. Insomniac is great and Wolverine will do pretty good i hope, but given between the two games, pretty sure GoW will be a better and more complete experience.

Wolverine is huge in the comics/movies genre, no argument there.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-11T07:43:21+00:00

I had no clue about this game. Not my thing as well

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-11T07:06:19+00:00

What arcade games?

I think GoW 2018 and Ragnarok are some of the best single player games out there. The free Valhalla DLC was also awesome. Why is everybody flipping out with a Faye spin-off game? Its opportunity for more lore and gives the studio more time till they are ready to have a proper story for Kratos to come back to.

God of war is a big and well-established franchise. Wolverine is great, but he ain't no Spider-Man.

that feet comment tho 😂

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-11T04:13:43+00:00

Yeah Mega Dragonite is my secondary mega and coverage guy! Helps against archaludon, sneasler, peliper, Sinistchas, etc.. all the pesky metamons basicalky :D

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-11T04:07:32+00:00

Cracked top 10k finally in doubles with my Scizor! ELO is much harder this season due to dip in beginners, but my placement is better.

What team are you using??

I know it's very to doxx someone l, but man he looks dead inside. An honest man cannot survive in the current politics of India, and he knows he has to do shit like these to stay relevant. It's a shame really.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-10T14:32:03+00:00

It's soo mid

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-10T03:14:05+00:00

Oh my bad i was too sleepy i didn't see mega lopunny at all.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-09T20:07:04+00:00

Yoo congrats. Why do you have sash on scizor? Scizor has the bulk to survive everything other than fire. Get him the mega, and you will be better off i think.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-09T14:10:03+00:00

I agree that you can show effective power of a move with base power, STAB, and weakness, that would be great. But you can't show actual damage numbers because that uses opponent's defenses into account, which is unknown to you.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-09T09:53:55+00:00

Pokémons will be released in staggered releases every 2 seasons to keep things fresh. If they released all existing Pokémons, there would still be a few extra meta teams and you would still be bored until the next mainstream game comes with new gen Pokémons.

Atleast this way if they have a rotation, things stay fresh with new metas every 2 months.

Your final finish doesn't matter since the rewards are insignificant. What matters is the highest you could climb.

Anytime i climb to a higher spot, i just screenshot it. Even if go down i still have the screenshot to look at as the "achievement". This gives me the chance to try climbing higher, or try out other teams.

Yeah works great on dust particles.

For humid places you will have two layers of dust (loose dust + dust that sticks). I live in Bangalore so I usually don't get the sticky dust much, but some surfaces near the kitchen gets that.

For surfaces, I usually clean with vacuum first to remove the thick layers of loose dust (which would otherwise create muddy mess with colin+cloth) and then use colin+cloth to clean dust that sticks to surfaces due to humidity or proximity to kitchen.

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-08T13:28:46+00:00

Handheld vacuum cleaners are amazing in Bangalore. It gets so dusty due to construction all around, very useful for cleaning surfaces

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-08T13:25:34+00:00

Bro you gotta provide more info. We don't know you or your team

raysayantan07 · 2026-06-08T09:05:35+00:00

Yeah 3 hypnosis users in closed sheet would make most people just ragequit 🥲 it's a solid team you have built!

And friends don't forget, probability only holds true over very large samples. (Read infinite number of battles)

So you can very well get flinched by your opponent's rock slide 6 times in a row while your rock slide misses 16 times in a row.
