    Now that im a 32 year old "adult" with 2 jobs, im more obsessed Pokémon and the cards than i was when i was 7 thanks to my now 7 year old nephew who loves Pokémon. The fact that i have more $$ to spend as opposed to when i was 7 adds to why im more obsessed with Pokemon now if that makes sense haha makes me feel like a kid again!

    Btw I’m not very sure how to play the game could u make a vid on how to and what packs I have to buy to play? Ex where do I get energy cards?
    Sorry abt all these questions I’m very new to this 😅
    And one last question
    Do u know what pack I should buy just to find some cool cards and that r affordable?

      So glad to hear you’re getting into the hobby! Investing in an elite trainer box is a great way to get started playing. It comes with a pack of 50 energies and a good amount of booster packs to get your deck started. I’d suggest grabbing one of those from the twilight masquerade or temporal forces sets. Affordable and easy to get! Hope this helps!

    Hi Vaxx! Just watched this whole video, really loved the way u put these tips and ur experiences in it (im subscribing instantly, hehe)
    I have a question, tho (and maybe for another viewers who'd also like to give their opinions, please do so)-I really want to start collecting but idk which packs/series to start with, maybe u have some recommendations abt this?
    - I dont really think of becoming a player, and
    - I'm still browsing thru the pokellector indexes to see the artworks on each packs/series since someone on the internet suggested me to do so but, yknow, just want to know ur thoughts and (perhaps) any of ur recommendations bcs I'd also like my collection to have some kind of "value" (if that makes sense) and just in case I might sell some of them in the future
    Would really love to know ur answer :) tysm in advance-OH, and keep up the good work🔥
    PS. sorry for any errors in this comment since english isnt really my 1st language, hehe ❤

    • @VaxxsCharizardCollection
      @VaxxsCharizardCollection  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      5 months late... but my honest advice would be to look at two things...
      1. Specific Pokémon. Almost every Pokémon (primarily in the first 3 generations) has cards that appreciate in value over time. Now that doesn't mean EVERY card does, its just a safe bet that some will... so if you have a favorite Pokémon, starting by hunting for it may be a good way to get your feet wet.
      2. Set values are super hard to predict, but generally it comes down to chase cards, I wouldn't suggest jumping into set collecting with an investment mindset, because in all honesty, that's just gambling...
      If I were you, i'd start by buying packs in the most current set, because they are cheapest and easiest to get ahold of.. you'll learn what you like and don't like... also downloads the app Pokellector... its a great tool to look at all the sets and see any cards you may want to hunt for.
      in the end, its all a hobby and for fun! There's no "right way of doing it" Just explore and enjoy the ride! You'll learn what you like/don't like. and most importantly, don't break your bank!!

    • @VaxxsCharizardCollection
      @VaxxsCharizardCollection  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      This isn't really the case for Pokémon. Certain sets have a higher probability of pulling higher rarity cards, but because the probability is higher, the rare cards themselves from that set end up being less valuable. It's really a chance game

    • @VaxxsCharizardCollection
      @VaxxsCharizardCollection  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      easiest would be the most recent collection, just because its easy to get your hands on and not priced above retail yet. But it really depends on what you're into and what makes you happy honestly. You can collect specific arts of Pokémon you like, or, what I do is collect a specific product from each yet... the elite trainer box. It looks good sealed on a shelf

      Professional Sports Authenticators. They grade collectibles and a 10 is perfect condition in gem mint and perfect/great centering. Crown Zenith is a good last set of SWSH block, and with yellow borders. It is a beautiful set.

      2021 has some great sets, the challenge you’ll run into however is, the older the set, the harder they are to come by and the more expensive they’ll be. If you’re set on this era, I’d suggest buying specific cards that you’re looking to play with and not opening packs to try and find them

    Hi just start collecting pokemon cards. My goal is to complete card sets like 151. Is it much better to buy single cards or bundles and packs?

    • @VaxxsCharizardCollection
      @VaxxsCharizardCollection  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      151 is a bit unique because it doesn’t have booster boxes available. What I did was grab a few sealed products for fun (like the ultimate premium collection box, the tins, and a few booster bundles). Opened them all up and then went out looking for the singles I was missing. If you’re looking for purely the best bang for your buck.. it’s a tough call because you never know what you might pull… I always tend to spend a couple hundred on seeped and rip them and then purchase whatever I didn’t pull from there. You can go down a dangerous path if you try to pull every card 😂😂 hope this helps! Also just an FYI, Walmart has 151 booster bundles discounted online right now at a great price!
