full arts and illustration rares ARE really cool, but there's something about a good, old fashioned Pokémon card design that really can't be beaten

life gets so much easier when you realize most of your problems can be solved with a DS and a little sweet treat

I wish I had my game boy

A lot of speculation is going on about porting old Pokémon games to Switch. Just a reminder - we WANT to purchase these games outright. Tying their release to Switch Online would mean that the access to the titles and their save data would be tied to a subscription.

Anybody want a shiny from Valor Lakefront?

For over a quarter of a century, Quilava has been my go-to Pokémon partner. Its home region of Johto has always felt like home. Who's your favorite Pokémon? #Pokemon30

Shiny Terrakion after only 256 encounters???!!! Yes, it was full odds, silly

My first ever shiny Hoothoot!!! This Superb Owl shined after 4,284 headbutts on phase 3 of my hunt for shiny Pineco! This is my absolute favorite regional bird, and I've now completed the line for my gen 4 shiny living dex!!

this is what I mean when I say I want "a little something sweet" after eating a full meal

inflation is out of control. 27 years ago, Pokémon Pinball was $32.99. In 2026? $7,000+

Gen 10 should: - Function on Switch 2 out of the box - Maintain the Legends formula for wild battles - Use the original main series battle mechanics for trainer battles - Feature ZERO shiny locks - Have a real Elite Four and not a stupid sterile white room

so many drugs out there in the world, and I got addicted to Silver 🔴LIVE at twitch.tv/kwikpanik

maturing is matching your wine choice to your DS color

Good news!! 2 shinies in ONE DAY!! After 3,500 encounters in Fire Red, phase #25 for Viridian Forest Pikachu is like my 14th shint Caterpie or something idk anymore. This appeared RIGHT after I had 3 level 5 1% Pikachu on screen lmaooooo

after a quick and easy 8,548 headbutts in Ilex Forest in my Heart Gold, phase 2 for Pineco is a SUPER COOL underleveled Butterfree!! Now I've gotten both of the phases I hoped for on this hunt! Hopefully the next phase is under odds AND Pineco!

Viridian Forest Phase #25 It's gotta be the one, RIGHT? 🔴LIVE at twitch.tv/Kwikpanik

I finally got my Ace Trainer promo for the CP I earned on the VGC circuit last year! Absolutely in love this this card - I'm so excited to have this card in my collection. I gotta try hard again this season to earn another 🥰

Phase 24 for Viridian Forest Pikachu, after a lightning-quick 16,160 encounters in Fire Red is my FOURTH 5% COCOON WHAT THE HECK DO YOU MEAN. At least Metapod's shiny rocks 🫠

the thing they don't tell you about finally getting adult money is that you do get to buy nice Lego sets, but you never get to build them 😄 I bought this set a year and a half ago 😅

something to take the edge off
