My partner and I (and my entire local Pokémon community) have found a ton of Mega Evolution stock around our town. I love to see Pokémon packs starting to be available again 🥲 Here’s a video of us opening it!

It’s been a while since I’ve made any Pokémon TCG opening videos, so here you go: White Flare and Black bolt.
I never thought I’d have so much fun with a set (sets?) I was determined to skip.

When I started collecting Pokémon cards, one of the things that stressed me the most was how to properly protect them. There are so many options! So I’ve made a video about it. Enjoy☺️

Today, my partner and I went to Birmingham’s Card Show and after we were finished with the stuff we were looking for, we decided to have some fun with a mystery box and a couple wheel spins.
I’d say that was a success.

This is probably the first one I get in more than 25 years 😅

My partner and I watched “Kids on the Slope” recently and fell in love with both the anime and the soundtrack. So much so that I wanted to buy the CD and the only way was to import it from Japan.
It got home today!
