How much time do you invest in pokemon?

Just a quick question, would be interesting to hear other people’s thoughts/answers. How many hours a day would you say you spend on Pokémon? Whether it’s on eBay researching or on here or anything else related to pokemon?

Personally I’d say I’m at maybe 3-4 hours spread through the day. Could be more but don’t know :blush:

When I’ve got my nightshifts, literally just scan emails, eBay etc for around 30mins a day,

However when no nightshifts can range from at least 2 hours a day too 6 hours spread across the day,

Time mainly spent on YouTube either doing my own vids or watching others in hobby, Instagram, eBay and of course efour too!

Will be interesting to see others time consumption :grin:

Oh no. Probably too much :grin: eBay + E4 every day at least once, that takes probably around an hour. Then I watch some Pokemon content on YouTube from people I’ve subscribed to, that time of course depends on how many people have uploaded new videos and how long they are. I don’t look at my collection every day but sometimes I do that especially if I have something new to add to binders.

Lately I’ve been playing TCGO too and Ultra Sun, but I’m using less and less time on Ultra Sun as I’ve done almost all the stuff there is to do post game.

So yeah I would say at least 2 hours per day but can be up to 6 or even 8 :grin: I’m starting a job next Tuesday though so for the next 2 months I won’t have lots of free time during the weekdays but I will still at least check E4 and eBay on daily basis.

Oh and checking my Pokemon Instagram takes time too but that I usually do it quite fast, it probably takes 10 minutes a day.

When I was actively looking for deals and doing it for a living for a few months in 2016… probably 8-12 hours. I’d literally wake up and go on the computer until I went to bed that day. It burned me out bad, haven’t gotten heavily back into it for almost a year now.

about 3 hours on average per day. This includes refreshing for new listings on ebay during downtime at work.

Between all the ways I consume content probably about 2-3 hours daily.

Does discord count…? :blush:

Between efour and eBay I probably spend at least 1-3 hours a day on Pokémon. It’s always a bonus when I get a notification that smpratte made a new video haha! I also spend a lot of time admiring sealed collection videos on YouTube.

Only when not talking about the nature of reality

Waaay too much. Between work and spending time with my family, sleep and food just get in the way of Pokemon related endeavours. Any spare minute I get, im searching or discussing Pokemon… 5+ hours at the bare minimum

Probs about 1 hour a day.

This. When I’m not on eBay or the computer looking at Pokemon then I’m playing it, watching it or at a store looking at it. Pokemon is all around!

Most of the time at work, sometimes at home lol. eBay alerts on, discord up most of the time. Refreshing efour every 5 mins because I’m a reclusive wreck but still need to communicate.
