Hello I am new to the forums but I have been in the discord for a little while. Got back into Pokemon around the 2020 hype, got lucky a few times and now have a pretty nice collection (if you like LV.X
).
There are 72 unique LV.X artworks that I know of, and I want to collect all of them in mint+ (someday gem mint+) condition. Currently I own 49 of these already graded mint+, have 21 either at PSA/CGC or waiting to submit at cheaper tier, and am missing 2 in mint+ condition. The majority of LV.X cards I have aquired I have bought from Japan and graded myself, with some exceptions being all of the PSA ones which I bought back when they were cheaper and Magnazone/Azelf LV.X that I have pulled myself in the last year. I haven’t graded the azelf yet hoping to send to bgs.
Here is a album of my collection: imgur.com/a/5qpeXwH

My Favorite LV.X Cardis tough since I really love all of them If I had to narrow it down to my Favorite 2 it would probably be Gengar LV.X and Pikachu LV.X. The Gengar has really sick artwork, and the Pikachu LV.X I really wanted as a kid but could never get, since it was a Japanese Exclusive and none of my friends had it for trade
The most difficult LV.X card for me to track down in mint condition was the Infernape LV.X Promo, which was a lower level touranment prize card and was distributed in a bag /w a coin which very easily indented the surface of the card. I have gone over my copy in detail and i don’t believe there is an indent, but PSA will probably find one whenever I get around to sending it lol.
Honorable mention here is the Luxray LV.X I have in a 9.5, these were used extensivly in play at the time of release and I was very lucky finding a seller who had 2 mint copies for sale and instantly bought both lol. Most of these that I see would grade 8 or lower.
The most expensive LV.X cards I have are the CGC Perfect 10’s that I have bought, both coming from amazing e4 members @milhouse and @nasta. These guys graded them and traded them to me, and I am extremly happy to have them in my collection. I am always looking to get more perfect 10/black label lv.x cards to my collection when I can afford it haha.
My goal going forward: I would love to get a personalized signature from each of the LV.X artists, there are only 7 of them how hard can it be …
That is all for now hope to meet some fellow LV.X enjoyers on the forums I post more of my collection on IG when I can, feel free to check it out at www.instagram.com/e4westinpieces/ @e4westinpieces
