◓ Top Pokémon Stories Of The Day ◓

1) A massive lawsuit brought against PSA alleges fraud and corruption - dating back to the company's very first graded card - offering a ray of hope that this is the first step in clearing out the cesspool that Pokémon has become.

2) In spite of massive abuse by resellers Japanese and foreign alike (and the difficulty in purchasing products day-of), Japan's newest set 'Storm Emeralda' - with new mechanics, excellent art, and a more robust card list than earlier 2026 entries - releases to rave reviews and high prices (both for sealed boxes and the most sought-after chase cards).

3) Not content to string along addictions and resellers in one single medium, LEGO and Pokémon release the second wave of their collaboration (comprising more than 20 sets).

@csevilla1216 Good stuff (the set at least, not the 12 boxes😆)! Where do you source yours from?

◓ Top Pokémon Stories Of The Day ◓

1) The legendary dragon is upon us, but streamer leaks and evidence (both predominantly from China) of massive quantities of 'Storm Emeralda' already available in overseas hands diminishes the set and brings further scrutiny upon TPC, the Japanese government, and retailers who continue to abuse the rights of the Japanese public with nothing in return.

2) Staying on brand, online platform Fanatics Collect begins offering cash advances for card convention attendees, further raising concerns that card collecting is evermore approaching a status similar to dr＊＊ addiction.

3) Highly-anticipated 3-part DLC for the massively-popular Switch 2 title "Pokémon Pokopia" is officially announced, with the first part is to be released on 8/5.

As it turns out, collusion (癒着) has been prevalent in Pokémon for a very long time, and all of the draconian policies by TPCI(i), the Japanese government, and shops shall do nothing to fix the matter. Expect to see the foreign resellers continuing to make posts like this, and expect to see more Japanese resellers capitalising on the 'policies'🔥

◓ Top Pokémon Stories The Weekend ◓

1) The full non-secret card list for Japan's 7/31 'Storm Emeralda' is revealed, including the third 'Centerfold' Stadium of the set, partially allaying fears the new mechanic is to be under-represented.

2) A streamer's opening of dubiously-acquired 30th Celebration packs reveals an equally-mysterious Mew card, leading to a range of accusations, denials, speculation, and excitement for the set's 9/16 release.

3) Adding to troubling developments involving TPC's blatant collusion with the Japanese government, the former moves to implement facial recognition (including for minors) as a condition of entry to five of its summer pop-up "Pokémon Card Stores", leading to warnings of a growing surveillance state, dilution of personal privacy and dignity, and dismay over the extent to which a card addiction has made people quick to abandon their rights.

So pokemon tcg is being used as a preliminary privatized mass surveillance mechanism that is employed on minors?

No, i actually hate this and it's wrong.
