@PokeTeeJay 100% I dont understand how there are some people that say Prismatic is better than AH. AH is what Prismatic should of been. Having no IRs makes the already bad SIR hit rates feel worse because it makes you feel like your getting nothing, whereas AH has the IRs and MAR to make up.

So you’re telling me that Jason Paige

- singer associated with the original English Pokémon theme song
- publicly known as the voice of the “Pokémon Theme”
- appears at events, conventions, and card shows
- sells/autographs merchandise and Pokémon-related cards

has also been accused of scamming the Pokemon community

- public accusations from the TCG community
- videos and posts pointing to an unfair trade with children
- criticism for allegedly taking advantage of young fans
- debate over whether it was a scam, abuse of trust, or misunderstanding

main controversy

- Jason Paige was at a Collect-A-Con / TCG-style event
- he had a booth / space for autographs and fan interactions
- some children approached him
- a card trade took place

what allegedly happened

- the children had an authentic Gengar card
- the card was described by third parties as valued at ~$150+
- Paige allegedly received that Gengar
- the children allegedly received a card signed by him
- that card was fake / not official as an authentic Pokémon card
- it was allegedly presented as something special
- supposedly as “one of one”
- the community interpreted that the real value was not equivalent

key point

- the children apparently knew the card they received was fake
- but the criticism is that they did not understand the real value of the trade
- the father also seemed not to understand the TCG market well
- they trusted Paige because he was “the Pokémon singer”

So there is a public controversy

And an accusation that he is being pointed at for an abusive trade with children

I’m so serious when I say I hate this fucking hobby lmfao. These people can’t be real.

[SlabSquatch Sports Cards @WaxMetrix]

OK y'all. This one hurts my heart.

One of the best guys in the hobby, my LCS owner Mike, had his shop broken into a few nights ago. The thieves made off with some serious stuff, and he still doesn't even know the full extent of it because he's still picking up the pieces.

If you see someone selling, flashing, or bragging about weirdly high-end stuff that feels out of character, please pay attention. Not just anyone can show up with things like a $24k box of Transcendent, rare $7500 Mahomes autos, etc, without raising some eyebrows.

This stuff represents decades of blood, sweat, and tears from one of the most upstanding families you could ever hope to meet, along with some pretty incredible team members who pour themselves into that shop every day. It makes me sick to see something like this happen to anyone, especially people like them.

I have full faith that the hobby watchdogs, dealers, collectors, and card show crews won't let this stuff quietly disappear. I don't think these criminals understand what kind of reach we have. As a collective, I assure you, we can figure this out. They don't get to just ride off into the sunset. They did this to one of us...so they did this to all of us.

Here are a couple links showing a small number of the stolen items, but there was a lot more. Please keep an eye out for anything strange. You'll know it when you see it.

And if you do see something, please say something. Thank you all.

PlayStation's highly-anticipated State of Play event was flooded by demands for Destiny 3. During the opening of the show, PlayStation's official Twitch chat was almost completely dominated by cries for a new Destiny game. https://t.co/9Q8ZpVPQZI

[Levi @0xLevi]

Who is YOSHIROTTEN and why did Pokémon trust him with a brand new card rarity for their biggest anniversary set ever?

Here's who he is and why this collab is a bigger deal than you think. 🧵👇

[NightShade @Fuecoco__]

@PokeTeeJay The sets that everyone are holding on to: 151, Prismatic, and AH. What happens when people holding onto all of this product, some people with hundreds of etbs, get unloaded into the market? Price will crash. But the sets that are big but not as big (DR, BBWF, JT), those will hold

[NightShade @Fuecoco__]

@BloodVariety Yup this is the reason the market will crash. Everyone hoarding up 151, Prismatic, and AH as if tons of people arent doing that already. When people start selling off their massive stock, prices will dip and other sets that people didnt pay attention to will hold. Always happens.

@thepokemodgroup Something tells me this is getting a remake

[NightShade @Fuecoco__]

@PokemonRestocks Ahh personally just hate the big 30th logo on the side. Wish they would leave them off of the new art rare cards

[NightShade @Fuecoco__]

@PokemonRestocks How do we know for sure they are called Futuristic Rares?
