It’s the Base Set Chaaaarizaaaard Shoooowwwwwwww~🎵 There’s so many more interesting cards, even from the Wizards era, but the Charizard craze and narrative is what everyone goes with. It’s no different than when a news outlet discusses video games and still think it’s all Pac-Man and Donkey...

How are the Pokémon Center sleeves when it comes to quality? Are they a bump up from ETB quality? Maybe even Ultra Pro? I’ve never bought any.

For a second, I thought that the Pikachu laying down on the pink surfboard was a nod to Puka with blue eyes.

Didn’t this guy have a themed McDonald’s meal a few months back? That’s really all I recognize the name from.

That UltraPRO intern who goes wild on Canva is at it again.

Here’s hoping Celebrations is the last hurrah for scalpers and other shady buyers. 2022 we get pre 2020 stock levels back. I’ll be glad to return to the days of overpacked shelves full of unwanted boxes and almost anything you would want to buy. When it goes from a for profit game and back to...

Once you discover DEX Protection binders, you don’t go back. (And Dragon Shield for the sleeves, doubled, while we’re at it.)

Yes, release an over abundance of Charizard product so the rest of us can get the good stuff. It keeps the scalpers busy.

Just checked Pokemon Center and TCG products aren’t sold out for once. On launch day. The hype is dying (which is good for the rest of us).

The Hoopa box could double as a box for Sonic the Hedgehog merchandise.

The pinkest set for dropping Fairy energy. Cruel fate.

I probably spend a couple hundred at Pokémon Center monthly and didn’t even know about the card until reading about it here.

It’s bland, I agree, but it’s also not displeasing to look at. I almost wish they had used the second version, scaled down a lot, even something similar to the little foil Eye of Anubis square on a Yu-Gi-Oh! card that had the 25 symbol.

It’s really too bad the English prints will have the ugly 25 Pikachu head that doesn’t look uniform at all. I hope they print enough Japanese product.

Would have been fine with just the Poké Ball silhouette.
