These same two guys have been camped out for 10 hours straight. Pokémon Vending machine scalping isn't a joke, it's a dead serious profession! 😂💼

🚨 Chaos Rising might have some of the most brutal pull rates we've seen in years. 😳💀

📦 Special Illustration Rares: ~1 in 83 packs
💎 Mega Hyper Rares: ~1 in 956 packs

That means some collectors could rip case after case and still walk away empty handed. 😭

Meanwhile, Mega Greninja ex SIR has already surged past $300+, turning into the set's biggest chase card overnight. 🔥📈

At these odds, are booster boxes becoming a lottery ticket?

Would you risk hundreds chasing the pull or just buy the single and save the heartbreak? 👀💔

A man recently shared one of his biggest Pokémon regrets. 💔

When he was around 9 years old, he used to clip the corners of his Pokémon cards so other kids couldn't steal them.

At the time, it seemed like a smart idea.

Years later, he realized he had permanently damaged some of the cards he treasured most. 😭💀

Sometimes the biggest enemy of a collection is our younger self.

Please, Pokémon scalpers, leave something for the kids. 💔

You may see profit, but kids see dreams. Sometimes all they want is a single pack or booster box. 🥺💙

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

This is every Pokémon collector's dream 😳🔥

A full stock and plenty to choose from.

Wondering why Pokémon Products are so expensive now? 👀👇

A woman recently shared her Pokémon story online. 💔

She and her husband started collecting Pokémon cards a month ago after playing Pokémon TCG Pocket together.
They weren't trying to invest or flip cards, they simply wanted to enjoy the hobby and play the game.

They managed to find a few products at MSRP and even pulled some amazing Charizard ex cards.
But then they discovered how difficult the hobby has become.

Pre orders sell out in minutes.
Shelves get cleared instantly.
They have never even seen Pokémon 151 or Prismatic Evolution at MSRP in the wild.

Now Blooming Waters is releasing, and all they want is one box to open together.

Not to resell. Not to profit.

Just to enjoy the hobby.

Sadly, many new collectors today aren't competing against other collectors, they're competing against scalpers. 😔

What are your thoughts? 👀

Man blocking everyone else from buying Pokémon cards at the vending machine 💀

When your parents support your Pokémon hobby instead of questioning it 💙

Kid traded Pokémon Chaos Rising for chicken wings 💀

Bitcoin pizza guy watching this like: “Not again” 👀

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

He got scammed on resealed Pokémon products 😥💔

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

Unpopular opinion: Pokémon Chaos Rising might already be going into early discount mode 💀
Amazon prices are slowly dropping like crazy 📉

Even the artwork is controversial, some people love it, some say it looks rough 😭

Not saying it’s bad, just saying it’s weirdly quiet for something called Chaos Rising.

Asking for a friend who may or may not have sealed boxes 👀

Question is: is Chaos Rising the new “Perfect Order”?

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

I want to share my frens story. 😔💛

He lost his father when he was very young and grew up struggling with his single mother.
Life was hard, he felt lonely, and he couldn’t really make many frens.

During those painful years, one thing always stayed with him, a Pikachu card. ⚡

He carried it everywhere and would imagine Pikachu beside him whenever he felt sad. In his dreams, Pikachu was like his best friend, helping him stay strong through everything. 😭

To others it’s just a Pokémon card, but to him, it meant comfort, hope, and friendship.

This Pokémon vending machine pricing is actually insane 😳💸

Pokémon cards at a Vietnam night market 😳

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

Is it the best card in Pokémon Chaos Rising?

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

Bro literally grabbed the scalper’s Pokémon Ascended Heroes box and ran away 😭💀 lmao

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

Good vendor gave kids a chance to rip a Prismatic god pack 😭✨

Magic might be waiting inside 👀🔥

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

A touch of heaven by Pokémon Stocks ✨

But people still say money can’t buy happiness 👀💀

[Walrus Moonboy / TCG @Walrus_Moonboy]

She definitely had the perfect boyfriend 😭💙

What do you think, Pokémon fam? 👀👇
