I always disliked Dark Charizard. A lot of the Team Rocket cards are where the arts started to get good, but I feel like Dark Charizard was a huge step back, and one of the reasons I didn´t like Team Rocket that much when it came out.
one time my cousin caught a garter snake and made me hold it and it peed on me, which felt very much like a personal attack. he blamed me for dropping it and for it’s subsequent escape which was also a personal attack
My home town used to be quite prosperous. Prosperous in terms of clean water, agriculture and overall community health. All of that changed in June of 2021. Nobody saw it coming. One card poisoned our water supply, burned our crops and brought a plague onto our houses. Yes, that card was Sandaconda V and no, I do not appreciate it
Despite Roaring Skies being reprinted heavily during the Pokemon Go boom era, this card is somehow still difficult to grade in PSA 10. This is so frustrating! It was one set off from entering the XY7+ era where the English counterparts had amazing quality control. And PSA is being unreasonably harsh on grading this card. Are you telling me that out of the over 3000 copies sent to PSA there is only around a hundred that got the gem mint grade? I think PSA is pop controlling this card! And don’t even get me started on the copy listed on ebay. Take a look at the back! Take a look at it! It’s all messed up with chipping how is that a 10? It’s also an 8 cert as well which means the standards should be higher. I don’t care if Primal Clash or the sets before it had bad quality control since nobody cares about it and it was less popular but ROS??? ROS should have been the turning point where the english folks at Pokemon printing company got their stuff together and made good quality cards. But oh no we HAD to wait for ancient origins to make the printing quality better… because EVERYONE loves the gold mega cards right? Speaking of which, that Gold mega rayqauza is hideous. U cant even tell what ts is its sooo ugly lol. im prolly gonna switch my card i dont appreciate js to that one cuz its so bunions. iagl if i could burn all copies of that card and was given the opportunity i would do it onb no bap
I opened up a LOT of Korean Silver Lance trying to get the Ice Rider Calyrex VMAX HR and I got an ungodly amount of these Hypno cards. I can’t place my finger on it but this card makes me feel unpleasant.
When I turned 10, my father gave me a Border Collie puppy. His name was Pipo. Pipo was my best friend. One day we went for a walk together in the mountains, and Pipo went over to some bushes. There was a nest of Sandaconda V there. Pipo died. I couldn’t do anything for him.
Might be controversial, but any WOTC card with a purple holo background (specifically the galaxy/star foils).
I don’t know what it was with WOTC and purple, but they just couldn’t seem to get those holos right (they did fix Base Set Mewtwo in Base Set 2, though).
For my tenth birthday I explicitly requested ex FRLG packs from all attendees and my family. I wanted the Charizard ex so badly. Imagine seeing the sparkle silver of an ex border when you open the pack only for it to be this hideous beast was the only ex I pulled on my birthday.
