Hottest trend
The Most Recent Purchase mega-thread was on fire, generating a dense stretch of high-liked posts spanning vintage WOTC acquisitions, modern full arts, and oddities from all eras.
Highlighted content
- @MacWaspe90’s AI-generated business pitch for curated Pokémon displays landed with a thud — @fourthstartcg called it out immediately with a screenshot, and @smpratte noted these types of messages arrive daily via E4, email, and IG.
- @Littu’s Pikachu clone elimination tournament reached round 4 and then round 5 within the reporting period — Emolga was the latest casualty, leaving six clones standing.
- The E4 VGC tournament posted Round 1 Swiss pairings, with matches due by June 28; @JimTrainer reported a win over @Lylebot in what was described as “Metronome Madness.”
- @c0ll3ct0r dropped a sharp Lapras TIL in #General — Lapras can learn Solarbeam in Gen 1, loses it for the next 8 generations, then regains it in the tropical setting where it finally makes sense.
Collection updates
- @CardboardP knocked a grail off the list: a Crystal Golem Reverse Holo from Skyridge, acquired as a tribute to a childhood trade memory.
- @UKLugia completed the Neo Genesis Trainers section of a binder set, including 4x Komiya gems and the formerly mysterious Super Energy Retrieval.
- @crindy finished new WOTC binder pages alongside two thematic modern IR/SIR spreads — one a cave-to-mountaintop diorama, the other a forest understory-to-canopy scene.
- @viridian returned from a break to add new MtG × Pokémon crossover artist pieces, including a Leafeon by Anson Maddocks painted on a misidentified proof.
- @patio marked the English portion of a Vulpix master set complete for now.
- @quibble added three low-pop slabs — two Pop 1s and a Pop 3 — to the collection.
- @Ilovelabs picked up a well-loved Umbreon, angled specifically to capture the swirl.
Psy… that’s all the cardboard news my headache can handle — psyduck out. ![]()
