@gengarbrigade NICE loot! There’s some serious street cred there.
I’ve achieved personal and creative re-centering.
…And my Vs Series is coming along.

Finally completed my Poncho Pikachu PSA 10 set
Also went to my first collect a con and vended for the first time this year.
Next month it will be my first time at worlds
Lots of goals completed in 2024
Among many smaller goals I have accomplished, I think one of the biggest ones so far this year is rounding out my Trainer Deck A and B collecting. I would still like to complete the remainder of the full sets, but getting sealed decks and the Machamp and Blastoise in a high grade was a huge win for me. They are more niche but I really love this portion of my collection
Beyond collecting more modern set cards, I’ve worked on obtaining more promos including ponchos.
A few months ago I also had the pleasure of adding a special kangaroo to my collection.
We are in different tax brackets lmao this is an incredible collection
Lol trust me, not a different tax bracket.
Just putting everything i have ever made off of pokemon back into pokemon lol.
Every time i see the title of this thread it feels like an attack from my parents
Or that teacher who always believed “you have such great potential, if only you would apply yourself.”
I think in my 2024 goals thread i stated that i wanted to get:
Salamence ex deoxys psa 10 english
Salamence ex dragonfrontiers psa 10 english
Salamence ex dragonfrontiers 1st edition psa 10 jpn
I have got the 2 english cards now and i have 2 copies of the japanese card at psa currently.
Fingers crossed.
Aside from that i didnt do much other collecting this year but in the last couple of weeks i opened an ebay store for fun and to make some profit
Nothing of consequence bbygrl and thats ok xxx
I have achieved an improvement in my mental health by taking a small step back from social media and PTCG :>
Base - Gym 2 Binder ✓
Neo - Genesis & Discovery ✓, Revelation 3 to go (Entei, Ho-oh, Raikou), Destiny 15 to go
Black Star - around half way done, probably skip the PCNY ones tbh.
Modern binder - various cards purchased, but this wasn’t feasibly getting done with all these other goals within 2024. Once I’m done w/ Neo and black star I can start seriously knocking these out since so many are just £5-10 or less.
E-series - worryingly I want to start working on these. I have even purchased a yellow binder. OOF.
Glad to see all the progress on the thread!
In IRL achievements, new job started and positive vibes after a rough time in 2H 2023 regarding mental health.
Just being back into the hobby has made me so happy.
When thing got too crazy in 2021 I sold 99.9% of my collection and moved on with my life but I couldn’t get myself not to look at the market or lurk around here once in a while.
I’ve bought an old prize card (grand party) & a trophy card that I am beyond happy to own. For now it will do for my 2024 collecting goals!
