    Pokemon Center Releases 25 New TCG Accessories Featuring Mew, Caterpie, Tyrantrum, Clodsire, Roaring Moon, and More!

    Even if it were Japanese, they had no issue sticking Primarina on sleeves with Lacey last year and still give that line no cards...

    For the Third Time, TPCi Reiterates More Pokemon TCG Product On the Way

    I wasn't mocking you WPM, I just don't trust their ability to actually solve their problems in any satisfying way. Remember when their solution to printing more Van Gogh Pikachu was sending 10 copies to local stores and it barely did anything? We're about to enter the oft-mentioned "6-8 month"...

    For the Third Time, TPCi Reiterates More Pokemon TCG Product On the Way

    For the third time, I'm going to need more than words. We're entering month 6 of this and 2 million people were in queue for Destined Rivals preorders on Monday. Sorry this strongly worded letter isn't doing anything for me

    Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet from “The Glory of Team Rocket” Revealed!

    I don't think Jessie and James were gonna be a tipping point for a set that already has Cynthia, Misty, Ethan, Steven, Marnie, Giovanni, Mewtwo.....

    PokeBeach Podcast: Team Rocket Cards Revealed, What’s Happening with Product Shortages?

    Surging Sparks had 1 (one) highly valued card when it first dropped and Journey Together and Destined Rivals aren't even out yet so it's kind of hard to make any comment about their values. The latter two are also caught up in the wake of Prismatic and everything else that's been going on...

    Pokemon Center Says More “Destined Rivals” Product Coming!

    Journey Together has almost no Gen 1 Pokemon in the spotlight and the booster boxes are still marked up to the highest value they've been in 26 years of the game. 151 was also very easy to obtain for nearly a year after it was released. Out of Prismatic's 17 cards worth $100+ on TCGPlayer, only...

    Pokemon Center Says More “Destined Rivals” Product Coming!

    2025 was a great time to quit. Things aren't going to get better. 2 MILLION BOTS IN QUEUE And no, what's been going on for the last 3-4 months doesn't "happen every couple of years." Even during the worst of the pandemic, a booster box of a set that was just coming out wasn't $250. Singles of...

    PokeBeach Podcast: Team Rocket Cards Revealed, What’s Happening with Product Shortages?

    Yeah sorry I have to go with Jon on this one, Pocket definitely has played a role in what's going on today. Things started going crazy in November with Surging Sparks, right after Pocket dropped on Halloween. There was a marked increase in TCG collecting when Pokemon Go dropped in 2016 and that...

    “Shining Revelry” Set Revealed for “Pokemon TCG Pocket!”

    Yah that "they want to make money" argument has rapidly fallen apart these few months when they've done nothing to let collectors actually give them money. But hey we can spam digital sets every month and still make bank.

    “Shining Revelry” Set Revealed for “Pokemon TCG Pocket!”

    Why do they even bother with the physical TCG at this point? It's clear Pocket is getting all of their attention. 🤢

    “The Glory of Team Rocket” Set Officially Revealed Featuring Team Rocket’s Mewtwo ex!

    That's just every set now until TPCi wakes the hell up and does anything. Don't know how people are excited for this. Bots were already crashing the Pokemon Center site yesterday in anticipation of Destined Rivals preorders that didn't even launch yesterday. We aren't getting this set.

    Highly-Anticipated Team Rocket Sets Likely To Be Revealed This Week!

    Pokemon Center Singapore and Pokemon Vending Machines Implement New Anti-Scalping Techniques for TCG Purchases!

    Yes, wouldn't it be nice if TPCi did something so that we had more to discuss than how rotted the hobby is? Oops, oh well.

    Pokemon Center Singapore and Pokemon Vending Machines Implement New Anti-Scalping Techniques for TCG Purchases!

    The sad part is that Prismatic Evolutions's pull rates were better than the entire year's worth of sets that came before it, as SIRs got bumped up to compensate for the lack of art rares and Pokemon full arts. We just can't recognize it because there's still over 30 SIRs and the set is never...
