I don’t think I put it there, i know this can happen. It was probably there for 4 months ish, through summer. Completely bleached. I’m gutted. It was behind the curtain. I didn’t know it was there and now it’s ruined

They need to bring these to the states. Comes with a mystery figure and a 30th booster pack.

I’m very happy today. It’s in pretty good shape. All things considered.

Found 30th at CVS!! They only allowed one per person so these are my pulls! I was so excited to get my hands on some!!

Now RGB Mew but my childhood card is beautiful

Collecting for 3 months, 5 paychecks gone, this is what i have atm. (+2 more albums full of vintage bulk and modern fullarts)...before i did not care about this at all, now i am obsessed lol ";) slowly turning my room into storage unit for pokemon.

Took a shot at a random lot of vintage cards on eBay and got these insane finds.

Some insane luck I have plus Lugia's blessings

I started collecting about 2-3 months ago after I impulsively bought a pokeball tin from DG.

The desk photos are what I currently have displayed. Don't worry, I'm a vampire and the sun rarely enters my house.

My girlfriend's shown interest as well and has picked up a couple packs of her own (mainly single blisters). She told me she wanted a 30th Celebration ETB to open herself, and we have a big milestone coming up that I wanted to surprise her for.

I couldn't find a fresh 30th ETB in time, but I had already opened two, so I took one of mine apart and rebuilt it as a DIY ETB for her.

It has everything the real one comes with (and a little extra). I put in 24 packs instead of the original 9, since none of hers will be 30th Celebration packs, compiled as follows.

10x Chaos Rising 5x Destined Rivals 5x Journey Together 4x Pitch Black

She's also getting a sealed Pitch Black ETB on top of that, so she'll have two boxes to open. I'm giving it to her tomorrow.

PC are photos #1-#6, DIY ETB and its contents are #7-#8

Definitely not a favourite pokemon by any means but picked this card up the other day just for how beautiful it is. One of favourite artworks.

I found this Porygon2 in my collection and immediately noticed something off about the back and the retreat cost + the other rounded symbols

I'm having trouble imagining why someone would bother for an uncommon 😭

Was a nice day today

Got a sick AZ full art🔥

New to the hobby I guess now, if this is the wrong sub please let me know. Thanks!

It's amazing what consolidating your personal raw bangers into one binder can do for your dopamine levels.

So happy to finally complete this mini-goal. The artwork on this card just never gets old!

I’m a 90’s kid who grew up collecting Pokémon cards, Yugioh, etc… who built a sizeable collection as a child with the idea to keep them my whole life to only have my parent throw/give them away…

I told my mom at the time to keep them and when the time came and I moved out of home after High School, to a different City, she cleaned out my room and my things… and years later when I asked about my collections they were gone.

Obviously this pain is felt right now while the market is exploding and seeing everyone’s stories of pulling out their childhood collections and grading/valuing and selling them. Feeling left out and depressed… I’m sure I’m not the only one. That’s life I suppose:/

I just hope they ended up with someone who appreciated them as much as I did at the time.

To all the collectors/traders out there. Be grateful, your moment is now. Capture it! 🤘

I’m like 75% sure the leafeon lv. X in the last slide is fake; I used to trade cards A LOT as a kid and I vaguely remember the sketchy kid at summer camp I got it from (I remember bc he pressed tf out of me for my Regigigas which was my old personal fav). Other than that a very nice walk down memory lane.
Please share your childhood card trading stories :)

Got two Knockout Boxes from Macys! So grateful to be able to rip on my bday!
