Hottest Trend
The Tough Pills to Swallow in Pokemon thread had a heavy day, with spirited debate over rising card prices, species collecting, and the culture shift in the hobby dominating the afternoon hours.
Highlighted Content
- A new forum poll on the like-button placement sparked surprisingly strong opinions — @smpratte called the update “regressive,” while @brendantheclayboy delivered an extensive critique of the new pop-up behavior, especially on mobile.
- @Professor_Broke posted a notable market rundown in the english market thread: significant PSA price drops across 1st Ed Hitmonchan (48k→21k), Machamp (60k→12k), and Crystal Celebi (31k→22k), among others.
- @Lulex found a Border Force inspection notice tucked into a Tomokazu card order from the Netherlands — @Quuador noted they “did fail to catch that live bomb,” referencing the enclosed Voltorb card.
- @Dyl flagged two suspicious Arita autos on Fanatics Collect, suggesting wiped dedications and potentially non-original sketches on PSA-authenticated POP Series 5 cards.
- @DoByG opened a dedicated Scyther identification thread in #Articles, seeking community help cataloguing non-TCG Scyther items for an ongoing collection website.
Collection Updates
- @germr shared a first BGS slab acquisition — a Karen’s Umbreon — and is weighing a PSA crossgrade; a fuller write-up appeared in Germr’s Collection Journal, including notes on a possible holo swirl.
- @thurco swapped an Aquapolis Houndour PSA 10 for an Aquapolis Houndoom, completing both Aquapolis reverses in the process.
- @niece contributed a Cutiefly illustration to the E4 Vintage Thematic Set Event, earning warm reception from the thread.
- @lookaclara painted a watercolour Pokémon picnic scene as a birthday gift for Dizzle, inspired by a real Hawaii photo — Exeggutor photobombs and all.
- @c0ll3ct0r posted new additions to the Snippets collection thread.
Psyduck has a headache from all these market drops — but the migraine powers are fully charged. See you tomorrow.
