    Farigiraf, Picnics, and More Revealed from Pokemon Scarlet & Pokemon Violet!

    Betting that the rock hut/house and white mice are this generations 3-stage rock creature and 2-stage rodent. Maybe the green parrot is the 3-stage bird.

    More Revealed About Wiglett, the Garden Eel Pokemon

    I’ve been calling it Dicklett all day. Can’t wait to teach it Hyper Beam.

    Unprecedented Video Showing How Pokemon Cards are Made from Start to Finish!

    I like the choice of GTA V music in the video. (Which could acceptably be applied to the 2020 era of scammers and conmen clawing to the forefront.) Groovy.

    Pokemon TCG Officially Launching in China, Massive New Market!

    The bans on specific words reminds me of the Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles as “Ninja” was seen as a violent word.

    Pokemon Players Concerned as Tournament Registration Fees Hit Nearly $70

    The last event I ever participated in was the prerelease for EX Delta Species. (Wow ?) You paid, I think, $20 or $30, but you got more than enough back in packs and whatnot.

    All 30 Pokemon “Trick or Trade” Halloween Cards!

    I really like these. Sure they are reprints and the set isn’t anything to brag about, but I like the novelty of it. It’s like the Yu-Gi-Oh! advent calendars that Konami used to sell. It’s just something fun and that’s what cards are supposed to be: Something fun.

    SWSH Ultra Premium Collection to Feature Charizard!

    Hopefully the hype crowd won’t take to this just like they didn’t take to Radiant Charizard in the Pokémon GO expansion. *Hopefully*

    TPCi to Reveal First “Scarlet & Violet” Cards at Worlds, A Recap of Past Reveals

    I was really hoping they would bring back a similar style for the Legends Arceus/Hisuian cards. Would have looked great and fit with the past aesthetically.

    TPCi to Reveal First “Scarlet & Violet” Cards at Worlds, A Recap of Past Reveals

    I’m betting on clear playing cards so your Pokémon can have crazy hats and crowns with special effects. Maybe some motorcycles.

    Top 100 Entries Revealed for 2022’s Pokemon TCG Illustration Contest!

    Would be cool if they could just print all 100 and bundle it as a special package like the Worlds decks or the old Yu-Gi-Oh! Gold Series boxes.

    Would he know that even in those plastic slabs that cards can still chip/scuff to show damage from sudden movements? Nah. Probably not.

    Logan Paul’s ‘Base Set’ Case is Fake: Threats, Bribery, and Shady Behavior Down the Ladder

    It’s not about the hobby or even an inkling of passion for it. It’s all for clout. 100% Grade-A Clout The sooner this bad juju and the people who come with it can fall off of the hobby, the better.

    Logan Paul’s Dubious ‘Base Set’ Case To Be Verified This Weekend, Unlikely to Convince Collectors

    Honestly, I hope it’s fake. The overblown hype just hurts the hobby and it’s been almost 2 years now. Stock supplies have been getting better-ish, especially back in November, but now it’s wiped out again, minus SWSH Base Set ETB’s. This case being fake could possibly end the cardemic and kill...

    Logan Paul’s $3.5 Million ‘Base Set’ Case May Be Fake: Pokemon Community Uncovers Significant Evidence

    Closing out the year on a high note. ? Edit: I don’t believe in gatekeeping a hobby or franchise, but given how the previous year and a half have went for the card market due to this kind of exposure and ridiculous clout that comes with it, getting duped to this degree could ward off another...

    Netflix Launching Collectibles Show Featuring the Pokemon TCG: Call For Entries!

    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...

    New Tropical TCG Accessories!

    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.
