Hey there! recently, I’ve been super into Pokémon TCG, and honestly, it’s been such a blast. Every time I see those familiar cards, it’s like being a kid again, like opening a little time capsule with every pack. It’s such a fun mix of nostalgia and excitement
But yeah, I totally feel you about the current state of TCGs, That said, the hype can get overwhelming sometimes, and it’s way too easy to fall into the FOMO trap. Lately, I’ve been trying to pace myself and focus on cards that really spark joy for me whether it’s because they remind me of a favorite Pokémon or because they’re perfect for a deck I actually enjoy playing. Chasing every release just feels exhausting after a while.
What about you? Do you lean more toward collecting for the love of it, or are you all about the gameplay?
I mean I have nothing to say about the sets, they are great. Actually they might just be TOO good lately, hence why I'm kind of overwhelmed with all the releases since I want them all so bad.
Also the FOMO is real, there is actually no set left of 151, unless you want to pay thrice the price. So I'm glad I got some, but I just can't get them anymore for a reasonable price. Kinda sad.
Prismatic Evolutions seems to be 151 all over again (Evolving Skies style).
Right now I'm playing Pokémon and Union Arena, a new TCG I really enjoy with the kids - Check it out if you like Anime and stuff. It's really fun! And the hype is not there yet, so I can get boxes at the local store (Incredible, I know!)
