Hello . Joined due to the knowledge base known to exist here, and appreciation of essssmmmmmpratttte. Original player/collector, put away for 20 years, tried selling original collection in 2020 when boom came and after multiple buyers with cold feet backed out, I started collecting again with the goal of buying > grade> reselling. Life decided i had more important things to deal with in 20/21 and have just been slowly adding to collection . Mainly a genwunner but do like and appreciate most mons. Pinsir is my dude. Getting close to being done with PC goals for him. Working to complete a Shadowless set , JAPANESE BASE SET-FOSSIL… I play : GO and TCGONLINE .

Hi everyone :]
I thought I’d post a short introduction here as I’m new to the forum.
I’ve been a longtime Pokemon fan since I was a child. No other franchise has completely stole my heart in the same way Pokemon has. I’ve decided to start collecting the TCG semi-seriously, as I have very casually collected Pokemon cards for many years, with most of my collection stemming from my childhood.
To start my new collecting endeavours, I’ve decided to start collecting Mawile as it’s one of my favorite Pokemon and heavily underrated despite it’s awesome design. If anyone would like to help me out with some Mawile TCG information I’d highly appreciate it.

Hello everyone!
Just wanted to introduce myself. I am a typical 90s kid who came back to the hobby in 2020.
The vast majority of my collection is Base unlimited/Jungle/Fossil but since returning to the hobby I’ve enjoyed learning about and collecting WOTC era cards released after I initially exited the hobby.
My only ‘accomplishment’ of note in the hobby was many moons ago. I completed Pokemon Red version with a level 88 Charizard simply because I didn’t know running from wild Pokemon was an option…#norarecandy

Hi everyone!
Just joined the Elite Fourum. I’ve been on smpratt’s patreon for a while now and he was so
enthusiastic about the new E4, that I just had to join!
I am 25, came back to Pokemon in 2020, and I don’t think it will ever leave my life again 
Best regards,
Xylometa (Coen)

Welcome! And this is the test, you know? It’s fun to revisit an old hobby, but actually rekindling that longterm passion is a different thing completely. But I do think that some people know right away, too.
I recently had the obvious-in-retrospect realization that I’ve been in to Pokémon far longer as an adult than I ever was as a kid, but I still thought of it as a hobby from my youth that I was returning to. Crossing the mental barrier that this is just something I am in to and not just something I liked as a kid was great for me.
