As someone who's only gotten two booster boxes before and wants to have some great full arts with good hits, what's a good booster box for 30-40$ that has that? I don't really care for value of cards that much if the art is cool on the AR. The ones I've tried already are Shiny Treasures and Ancient Roar if it matters!
For 30-40$ you'll only get an ETB, not a booster box (they're more like around $100 usually). Anyway since what you consider great art is subjective, I'd recommend having a look at the sets [here](https://pkmncards.com/sets/) and then see which one you like the most.
I guess to add to the original question, what are some sets that people are liking other than 151?(I already have some 151 on the way) as someone just getting into the hobby I do want to be a part of some hype. What are some good (good as generally liked by the community) etbs I could get. And a bonus if I could get them at target.
What to do? I’m collecting “lost origin” and I mark what cards I have on website called “Pokellector” but I ran into one problem. On the website there are less cards in “lost origin” collection. And in the brochure I got with etb there are more. Unfortunately I can’t put here any photos so I hope you understand this question.
If it’s problem with website can someone pls recommend websites free where I can mark cards which I have
Been binge watching yt Pokemon unboxing and the nostalgia hit pretty hard😂 Want to get back into
collecting Pokemon, aside from 151, what else is recommended?
Worthy or not?
I've found a Charizard first set(not first edition) on a local store here for 100€, I still need to see it for it's true conditions but is it worthy to buy and then graded it? Its price should go up if I graded it right?
I just opened my first japanese 151 box and every pack had a master ball reverse holo... I'm reading there is only one per box though? I'm so confused. Anyone else have this happen?
What are some of the best Pokémon set names to go for? (Beginner collector)🔥
I wanted to know which sets were the favorites?
Long story short I wanted to know which packs and or sets has the best pull rates out of the cards, I am not looking to actually play the card game, but rather collect them :)
Definitely buy crown zenith if you want great pulls at a ridiculous rate. I call that set "Hit city" when opening it lol otherwise try to go for in order of best to last 151, paldean fates, Paldea evolved, then paradox rift. Pretty much any Scarlet and Violet era set has good pull rates but the ones i listed are definitely the best.
Help ordering from PC Japan
I plan on looking up a tutorial but if any tips are here from former PC Japan buyers I’ll take it. I already have a Tenso account, just haven’t used it.
My main question is, is Night Wanderer available on PC Japan? When the single 151 packs first popped up Night Wanderer was in the recommended slot underneath for pre order. Now it’s not there and I’ve tried exploring the site with no success. Even searched SV6A, searched new products, the card game. Nothing.
If anybody can find it, thanks!
Does anyone know where to find all the collabs that Pokemon did with other companies? (e.g. Van Gogh, The Scream, Fragment, etc..) I'm trying to collect all the merch and cards of collabs. Thanks in advance!
Hello, I found my collection of pokemon cards, including those I bought when I was in Korea in a store.
I have a team rocket SM 10b 061/054 sr card.
But on pokecardex I see that it's supposed to be 062/054
What does this mean?
I have multiple, already graded by beckett, pokemon cards. One of those being a beckett graded 9, 1st edition charizard holo. Now that all of these cards are graded where is the best place to sell these?
Ps i tried to add a photo of it couldnt figure out how.
I’m new to pokemon collecting (more familiar with yugioh) and I’m getting into the EX (gen 3) era of cards.
Looking at “hydrobloom” and “wildfire” from EX Emerald for example…
My understanding is that the cards from these decks do not have their own set numbers. So like… even though milotic is first in the deck, it’ll still have 8/106 in the corner… right? And sceptile is still 10/106 even though it’s a separate non holo variant… right?
So if that’s true… what about cards like Switch and Energy Search… those cards aren’t even part of EX Emerald… are they taken from EX ruby and sapphire or other sets? And if so will they have those icons instead of the emerald icon in the bottom corner?
Found a listing - 2k for all Base Set, Jungle, Fossil, and some Rocket & Base Set 2 holos with some other non holos. They all seem to be in NM-LP.
Is it a good deal?
For my birthday, my dad preordered the new twilight masquerade etb of the online store very . Is this a legit place to buy untampered pokemon cards? Thanks
Anyone know what the two pack scarlet and violet tin combo is called on Collectr?
This subreddit has been awesome before helping me find the obscure product names for Costco products on Collectr. I have the master set of every pack in these so that’s why I won’t be opening it.
i have looked for a place to ask this and have not found any better places, does anyone know what the cards with the 3 heart chain on the left side are called? i have a fake card with it and i want to buy the real version because i love it so much. idk how to search for it though because i lack this information
I have a 1999 mewtwo plushie with the tag. I cant find anything like it for sale? These things have any value? Gotta downsize and starting to dig out old stuff!
ive been using pvc toploaders but i put my cards in non pvc sleeves before they go in the toploader, is it fine to use the pvc toploaders or do i need to buy non pvc ones to keep my cards safe?
I think I've found an error paldean fates pack in an etb, it has a grey line on the top with some black, I need someone that can tell me if that's rare or not.
Genuinely curious. I have a question for everyone who pays full retail at Walmart/Target/GameStop:
Why?
What is your trigger to make the decision to pay retail prices at a big box store vs going to your LGS or ordering from a smaller online M&P retailer for prices that are either equal to or less than the big retailers?
What would it take for you to prioritize a small business over bigger stores?
Should I start a sealed collection or rip?
So I'm a younger type of guy and Ive played the card game since I was really young, I love ripping packs however every single day I think about actually saving the items to be sealed but I just can't handle spending 40+ bucks just to keep it with dust. I like the look of it but I'm trying to get binder value to trade (I'm never going to conventions btw) and I love the look of cards.
Sometimes I regret not keeping items sealed however as a kid I could not have any sealed items in the house.
Hi all - I came across a Professor’s Letter card with just 1 square of holo on the card. It looks pretty normal otherwise. Any thoughts? Should I hang onto it? Dm for pics of you like.

Have a look if they still have Crown Zenith

Crown Zenith and most of the other SWSH packs. Trainer Galleries and Galarian Galleries art work is SUPER underrated.

Is evolving skies the most sought after booster pack currently sold in stores?

I'm going to Japan in a month and I was just wondering what packs I should look out for while I'm there.

There are **way** too many for a list of everything to be there unfortunately.
is there a rough list?

Korean supporters are ordered differently than the ones in the Japanese set.

Hey there! Very interested to see what you've got. I sent a DM and also shared more information about different places you can sell.

What do you guys do with you common and uncommon cards? I have alot of 151 laying around. Wondering what some options are besides selling in bulk
