Eric's Wantlist (Italian Torchic 8, German Torchic 6, Misc. Torchic Cards/Cameos, Korean ADV/Promos, Indo/Thai SCA, Torchic Topps, French POP Series 1 Blaziken, Combusken/Marshtomp Italian Winner, Russian Combusken/Blaziken, Japanese Mega Blaziken)

Hello all, this is my general wantlist for more elusive cards and the random few I need to complete my Global Torchic Master Set.

I’m in the U.S. but I have some very generous forum members on here that would be willing to middleman things from either France, Singapore, or the UK.

Italian Nintendo Black Star Promo 008

This is the last card I need for my art set of this card. None are available on Cardmarket. From talking to several Italian collectors, this is about a $25 card that just rarely shows up. Willing to pay $100 for it in LP+.

I am likely to eventually want the Mudkip and Treecko as well, so I am interested if anyone has those.

German Nintendo Black Star Promo 006

Open to negotiate on price if anyone has one laying around, but I believe in LP+, the German card is worth around $800. Totally willing to take a lower condition card for these for a price cut as well.

Indonesian/Thai SCA

!

This is the last card I need for my Indonesian collection and it is a missing card in my Thai collection. It is a 1/9 pull from “V Starter Deck Teman”. It has proven to be unfindable for all the Indonesian and Thai sellers I have contacted.

Nobody seems to have bought this deck and I don’t particularly want to pay someone in Indonesia and Thailand a stack of cash to track down a very hard to find case and pray I get a non-guaranteed pull.

I think I have bought out the entire stock of decks that Tokopedia sellers have on the Indonesian side. I am 0/7 on my pulls.

I haven’t gone through the struggle in Thai yet, but wanting to prevent that issue before it occurs. At first glance, there are no sealed decks on Shopee Thailand.

Willing to pay $20 for it in LP+ in either language, as well as the Combusken and Blaziken from the deck.

Topps

I am still looking for these two topps cards from Advanced (2003). Note that the first one is in silver foil, not regular printing. There isn’t much market data on these, so I’ll say I’m willing to pay $100 for the foil Torchic and $20 for the regular checklist in LP+, open to negotiation.

Korean Starter Decks

It’s been close to a year of searching for my Korean middleman and I and we’re no closer to obtaining one.

I obviously need the Torchic deck and unfortunately, the Mudkip deck has a switch cameo I need. If I’m buying two of them, I might as well go for all three.

I have confirmed recent sales of these decks anywhere in the $450-800 range. I’m open to negotiation, but I’m looking to pay around $600.

If anyone has the singles I need (both Torchic, switch) I’m open to offers for that as well but I would pay less than the entire deck.

Korean Manaphy Movie Promos


My KR middleman has obtained the Torchic and Treecko for me. I want to finish the set, so I’m looking for Mudkip and Manaphy. Willing to pay $50 each.

Pikachu ADV Promo

I am considering trying to do a KR ADV Master Set. I am not going to bother if I can’t find this Pikachu. I’m offering $100 for it, but nobody knows what market really is. I’m open to offers. The last sale I could find was in 2020 for about $25.

Mewtwo Jumbo

I have confirmed a recent sale of a LP+ card for $300. The only listing anywhere is for $700 which is overpriced. I am willing to meet in the middle around $500 for a NM card or closer to $300 for an LP card.

French POP Series 1 Blaziken


This thing is shockingly unfindable. I have no clue what market is but I’ve seen other cards from the same set go for around $100, so I’ll offer that. Willing to negotiate.

Italian Combusken/Marshtomp Winner Stamp

I’ve made a separate post looking for info about these to no avail (images below are the French cards).


I am looking to buy (as well as ANY info about) Italian Combusken/Marshtomp. I purchased Italian Grovyle for $150, so I feel that is a reasonable offer for the other two.

Russian Combusken/Blaziken

I want to finish the Torchic line in Russian. I currently have all the Torchic, the non-holo Combusken, and the Promo Blaziken.

That leaves me with needing both reverse holo Combusken (Furious Fists and Primal Clash), and all 4 non-promo Blaziken (Furious Fists and Primal Clash, holo and reverse holo). Not sure what is a reasonable offer, so I’ll just leave it at $30 each, open for negotiation.

Images below are my non holo Combusken and TCGO Images of Blaziken.

Prize Pack Series 1 Blaziken

I’m trying to knock out the hardest Blaziken cards first, and these have been a bit of a headache.

For the VMAX, I need German (no image) and French. I’ll offer $100 for each, open to negotiation.

Japanese Mega Blaziken

Last Mega Blaziken I need. My offer is $100 in LP+.

German, French, Italian Torchic EX Codes

I am still missing an embarassing amount of these. Offering $3 each in LP+. If you don’t know what an EX Code is, it’s the little code on the bottom left of the card. Many cards in the early EX era have several code variants.

  • German
    • Ruby & Sapphire 73 EX Code 5ZA-HMN-FB5
    • Ruby & Sapphire 74 EX Code GK-QRZ-60P

Others

I’m also happy to look at Combusken/Blaziken cards but they are lower priority. I also am interested in English WINNER stamped cards from the EX Era.

Thanks!

bumping this post as I’ve edited it to add more cards. thanks!

FWIW, I think the price is pretty accurate, the seller/shop just wouldn’t send me a photo of the back of the card for 18 months and I won’t buy blind :rofl: I wish you the best of luck in your hunt!

The price has gone up that much then…

Yeah, not showing a picture of the back is a huge red flag lmao. I was debating pulling the trigger on the other one that was listed a month or so back on cardmarket for like 600-700 but I was thinking it was worth less…

Thanks for the best wishes, hope to put together the set some day as you have!

bumped due to edits (removal of German McD 16, price updates)

the “gaps in our collections thread” inspired me to update this. Changed the Promo 6 section, added Portuguese DRM, edited prices. Also made an instagram that I’ll slowly update to showcase my collection that is linked to my E4 profile!

Bumped due to edits. Removed all Russian, removed Portuguese DRM (got blessed by a rare listing on ligapokemon), added German and French Tropical Wind 2004s.

Also just opened 3 more Indonesian SCA decks and no Torchic. At least we got a Wailord for @WailordEnthusiast. If anyone needs some cards from them, let me or @hermitP know.
