I found a good deal on Fanatics. I enjoy the trainer’s from TRR. They have a strange vibe that I can’t describe.

Bling helps. 
Well, pics off google are created by someone in some way, BUT I’m curious, because I’m skimming, Did you create this art with AI yourself?
If so, I think it’s perfectly expressive and creative to have it tattooed on! I’d make sure to fix any weird things, and maybe don’t tell the tattoo artist it’s AI, cuz they might not like that… DOn’t want any potential “artist revolts”

I just got this yesterday. It’s is a weird one, for sure - Capsikid 024/197 as a “Double Printing, 1 Side Blank” CGC error label. I’ve shown the front of a normal version on the left to compare to the slab. Obsidian Flames is documented for having these errors, and I’m hoping that it only affected a single sheet! I can’t manage to buy a “missing opaque layer” error because I’d rather have a new car than one of those! Good fold-over error cards seem really hard to find at an affordable price, too. This one was worth getting for me just because it looks so cool with Capsikid “attacking” the Pokeball from the back! I love a fun picture in an error. This particular one is the Top Pop of 2, the other of which was just authenticated. I know the top pop is begging to be one-upped by someone who hasn’t graded one yet… and I know a grade 7 isn’t great, but for the rarity, it let me at least be able to afford one! I have blurred the CGC QR just so it doesn’t get copied by a random scammer and a fake made… you can still see the CGC cert number, though : )

I’m with you on the Tag Team corners, but that’s one beautiful card! I collect Japanese as well, just for the great print quality. Nice acquisition!

that strange vibe is the secret sauce I rub on all my slabs before I sell them

Good ol’ fashioned trade with @slowqueen
The Swablu is an absolutely beautiful card. And my first Indonesian card because why not!

Wowowowowow.
I’m honored.
When the Cardmarket alert I set up before I acquired my first copy fired off recently and the listing was just 1€, I knew that I couldn’t help myself, but buy another one after the seller confirmed it was indeed unlimited.
So while not quite the near future anymore, let’s see if I’ll come across another copy shortly (would pass on that one though).

Bought it simply to check out the texture and for $4
Maybe overpaid on this at $5 but I thought the art was too cool

I recently attended Collect-a-con for the 1st time and picked up this sweet pikachu to get signed. I also unexpectedly traded for the Mew that same day. A few months ago, I finally “graded” some binder cards that had been sitting in my closet for close to a decade and these 2 were my wife’s favorites.

What a delightful trade with @bbobrob! I started a side collection for the Hoppip line due to my sudden-onset love for Skiploom, so I reached out to our resident expert to see if he had any extras for trade. I wound up with some Hoppips Skiplooms and Jumpluffs, some really fun non-TCG, slowpoke stuff I’d never seen before, and a CUSTOM EMBROIDERED SLOWPOKE SKIPLOOM CARD !!! I truly feel as though I’ve robbed the bank of Bbobrob, and I will be riding off into the sunset.
There’s one more little Skiploom item I forgot to take a photo of, its a cool cardboard circle thingy
