Jaxlax21's Greninja Collection

https://www.psacard.com/psasetregistry/psa/psa/pokemon-greninja-master-set/21721

As the Registry currently is, I am #2. Only missing the 1 card I’ll never see. I currently have 11 requests in to add new slots, not even counting newer cards I haven’t graded yet. So, I could get up to #1 if my competition never gets them. The Lotte stickers are 4 of those Slot Requests, and I now have the only 10s of all 4 of them. 3/4 of them are the only copy graded :sweat_smile:

Update time! Got around to upgrading this Daiichi Pan Sticker from a 9 to a 10. Pop 2 currently. This thing isn’t on the Registry yet, but my slot request has been waiting to be filled since May.

The art is from Pokemon Cafe ReMix, I believe.

Love the little chef’s hat. Congrats on the upgrade to a 10! :slight_smile:

Much congratulations on the upgrade! I like that the sticker seems so minimalistic with a lot of white space. Really looks good for a small space. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

Been a while since I got to share a grading update! I just got my grades back from my middle-man and had to get this out before I have them actually back to myself.

Staring off, I’ll give a run down of the 10s. These are all great and I’m super happy with them all.

First one is the 054 SVP from the Greninja ex Battle Deck. This was the 2nd attempt on this card, for some reason they are really hard to get in a 10. With only pop 7 now with my new one.

Next is the pair of Koraidon/Miraidon Starter Deck Radiant Greninja. I’m glad I knocked both of these off the vast list of Radiant Greninja variants.


Then is the 2023 World Championship Radiant Greninja from the Psychic Elegance deck. I wish this one would have been a pair as well, but the 2nd version didn’t pull a 10. :sweat_smile:

I was really glad I got the Battle Academy Greninja ex on my first attempt grading it. Its always nice to not have to worry about it again.

This one is probably the biggest card in the whole submission. I picked this copy up off Buyee for about $35, so getting the 10 on it is great! I’ve worryingly been watching 10 prices increase for a while and was worried about what I would get on this one.

I paired these two because they are essentially the same thing. The Stellar Miracle Deck Build Box and Battle Master Deck Terastal Chien-Pao ex Radiant Greninja. Yet more deck Radiant Greninja…


FAILS
Now, we have all of the ones that did not get the 10 I need. The Kalos Starter Holo and XY Base ones were long shots, clean copies that I thought might get high. But, I knew the changes of getting a 10 were super low, due to there being Zero 10s graded for either card.





But the worst one was this Asia exclusive Gym stamped Radiant Greninja. It was given out at Twilight Masquerade Pre-Release events in Southeast Asia. PSA decided not to grade it at all. I’m very annoyed at this, and have been trying to get information to send to them to get it recognized. Finding sourcing is more difficult than getting the card, it seems.

After the disappointing failures in my last batch of grading, I quickly grabbed the easy ones to get that I hadn’t gotten a 10 on.

Full Art Tera ex and the 132 SV promo.


Now to keep an eye out for the Lost Box Kyogre World Champ Deck Radiant -_-

Sick collection, been lurking this thread for a while lol
I’ve come to tell you to pay attention to the seller bijou bids on ebay, who has recently been putting a pair of the phantom forces single pack blisters (with the greninja xy24 promo) up for bid each week. This is the only seller I have seen have these for auction/sale in the past 4 years. I know you already have a psa 9 of the promo, but on the off chance you were looking to try for an upgrade, this is the only time you would be able to

I’ve watched them for a while as a way to get the sealed blister. I’d be shocked if one straight out of a blister actually graded a 10. As of now, its pop 2 for a 10. XY24 is the English version of my overall favorite Greninja card, so of course I want it at some point. If the 2 that exist ever go to market.

For years now I’ve been hunting for a gradeable 10 copy, and the closest I got was opening 2 of these blisters. There simply don’t exist any raw copies in even acceptable condition. And of the psa 10s graded, I somehow doubt they are in good shape either given how poor older psa cert slab grade to actual conditions are.

Newest addition just got it. The metal Tera Greninia ex from the Greninja Ultra Premium Collection box. Really happy to get this one out of the way. The cards all seem off to me when I picked one up, so not having to worry about grading it myself is worth it.

I decided to catch up on your new additions. As always I am envious of your great Grenija collection. It is a really great Pokémon . I keep hoping one day I’ll check in and you will have the elusive Tokyo TV promo!

Thank you, from another frog-enjoyer it means a lot! Always nice when your passion is appreciated.

Been lurking for a while! Really happy to be seeing your collection grow. I’ve been lacking on my greninja grades, but have like 5 ready to sub! I have a really minty XY24 promo straight out of a blister with one white spot so hopefully it could get that elusive 10! I also managed to pick up around 4 asia gym stamp greninjas :slight_smile:

Good luck on the XY24! Only 2 10s exist, I am forever on the hunt for that one.

Im still salty that PSA sent my Gym stamped Radiant Greninja back. If they ever decide to grade them, I’ll be resending it.

My interest in your mislabelled 218/XY-P stands btw!!
