Full time dad, part time shiny cardboard collector! I just love the thrill of the chase collecting beautiful artwork building my collection. Seeing those sparkly silver boarders gets the heart racing, love to see it ✨
That is awesome! Being a dad and collecting with your kids is the best. Please claim your gift by July 24 - DM me on Instagram @phillips.collectibles (preferred) or email phillips.collectibles@gmail.com. Well done!
@@phillips.collectiblesAyeee no way can’t believe I won this! Some more shiny cardboard to open with the lil ones is always welcomed. Thanks so much legend I’ll shoot you an email as I don’t have socials currently. 👊👊👊
Collecting pokemon card made me feel like a kid again, it also helps me to just relax and have fun in life, instead of endlessly working in my day to day job.
I love collecting cards as it’s the first hobby i’ve tried in years that’s felt fulfilling. And the community has been great in so many ways. Honestly, Pokemon made me happy again 🙌🏻
Super good content that is a little more down to earth! One of my favorites channels since I got back to the hobby through the 151 set! Pokemon is nostalgia in a small package, you get to be that little carefree boy again for a little while, without all the responsibility for family, work etc
It's just a lot of fun chasing cards and packs. Both collecting and investing. I started buying pokemon just to invest but I fell in love with the hobby.
I love collecting pokemon cards because remind me of my childhood but also because it’s a great escape from the stresses of life. Can be very therapeutic for me to sit down and go through my collection or sort my cards.
I enjoy collecting pokemon cards because though all the ups and downs of life it’s something, like music, that always finds a way to bring a smile. I sold my old collection over 5 years ago to afford being able to get my first apartment with my gf (now fiancé) . On Pokémon day this year I decided to stop and buy a paldean fates booster bundle from GameStop on the way home from work one evening and opening those packs, showing her the mew and Charizard SIRs to pull, and then MAGICALLY pulling the mew was such a nostalgic feeling. She saw that my eyes “light” in shock and she completely understands how fun whether you’re pulling something shiny and amazing or just ripping open packs to bring you back to a simpler time is. Keep up the content man. Your setups aesthetic is a vibe man 👍
Collecting cards brings back the best parts of my childhood. I’m hoping to share with my kids for years to come. Hoping they’ll share interest and we can collect together 😊
I regained my love for collecting pokemon cards thanks to my brother in law its nice to have someone close to you to share the collecting journey so glad he got me back into it 😊
Got back into collecting again recently. Had a lot of pokemon cards as a kid and later realised most of them were fake as we didn't get originals in our country back then. Loving the nostalgia and a big fan of pokemon artworks. A new subscriber, loving the content, keep it up!
I love collecting pokemon cards because of that connection to my inner child, and I deeply appreciate their wonderful artwork. For example, the IR bulbasaur in 151 evokes so many emotions. I gush over that card everytime I seen it! I'm obsessed with that one and many other illustration rares
My Friends got me back into pokemon collecting after we spend a weekend nerding out, opening packs and trading cards (mostly them helping me by gifting their dupes). Just wholesome hype and fun like back in the days!
Just ordered another Japanese 151 last night for about $60! Love those tiktok coupons! Love your channel man. It's really helping me plan my first comiccon event! I love collecting because I remember the joy it brought me as a kid...very nostalgic. I'm about to get married and then have kids of my own, and I can't wait to share my collection with my kids!
My favorite part of pokémon collecting and playing. is the way you content with people and cards. If it’s collecting or playing. it’s all a great way to connect and be part of a amazing community.
Collecting gives me an outlet to relax and organize which is what I love to do. You are absolutely right about Pokémon marketing to our nostalgic ties from childhood. Totally got sucked into 151 as my first modern set I’m trying to complete 😮
Collecting pokemon cards is a lot about nostalgia for me. It reminds me of when I played the games when I was a child. Besides that I love collecting pokemon cards for the art work and how pretty the cards are. It's given me a new appreciation for pokemon I've overlooked in the past. Plus I've "Gotta catch 'em all!"😅
I love collecting because I love Pokemon and because I’m a fan of these amazing artworks and illustrators that bring life to the Pokemon and each with their unique styles. I always get excited even for the commons cards. The art is too good! Nothing better than looking at an amazing binder page full of cards that you love and arranged in whatever way I want 😍 it’s beautiful
Collecting Pokemon cards has brought a lot of fun and normalcy in my life once again after a really rough season personally and with unemployment. I haven't collected since base set and 151 brought me back into it with the nostalgia. I've enjoyed collecting alongside my niece and nephew, who also helped me get back into the hobby. Opening packs gives me something to look forward to each day!
I'm an artist as a hobby so I have always been very obsessed and intrigued with the art on the cards (my chase lists always have common cards too because of the art). Always been a very big Pokémon lover too and I probably carry a collector gene of some sort since I have always liked collecting stuff.
151 got me back into the hobby, so cool to see new full arts and creativity 20 years later: I honestly hope they make a new Pokemon tcg game on switch like they had on the Gameboy Color
The nostalgia is why I love collecting Pokémon cards. I still have some of my childhood cards and am working on collecting mainly Dragonite cards now. This hobby is an escape for me to relieve stress.
Allows me to reminisce the old days of waking up early on a Sunday morning and watching Pokémon with the family. We all used to rush to get ready and wait for the new episode of Pokémon to start airing!
I enjoy collecting Pokemon cards because they have a story on how and why I got them. It’s part of my life’s story and looking at them bring back memories
I love collecting pokemon cards because I like looking at the art of different kinds of pokemon. It's also nostalgic to see the original 151 pokemon because I collected base set cards when I was a kid and Pokemon blue was my first Gameboy game.
I love opening 151 because I know all the pokemon. I haven’t kept up with all the newer generations, it’s hard to enjoy other sets as much when I don’t know half the pokemon
I used to take my kids out pokemon hunting when they were young, so I love collecting pokemon now that my kids have grown because it brings back so many awesome fun memories!!! Venusaur was my first favorite pokemon now I love many of them especially the art rares.
I started collecting, after finding all my base set era cards just sitting in bottom of a box. First a buy a binder for protection and find out about 151. Fell completely in love and my inner child came out enjoying life a bit more 😁
I love collecting for a few reasons. First, my family wasn't financially able to buy a lot of pokemon cards when I was a kid so it's dangerous now that I am older and have disposable income to relive that dream. Second, it's a great escape from the day-to-day grind as well as everything that is happening in the world. Thirdly, it's such a great community to be a part of and see how everyone experiences the hobby!
As a kid I played pokemon tcg even a couple tournaments, I played the gb game and knew the names of all pokemon. I love the illustrations and now collect for nostalgia, even a card considered cheap has a place in my collection and memories!
When I was eight, my best friend moved away to Europe from the states because of his parent’s job without being able to say goodbye. The day after, I found a Pokémon card he left under my bed as he was very into collecting while I was only buying a couple packs here and there. After that, I started collecting Pokémon cards, with each time I opened a new pack reminding me of him. As time went on, my collection grew whilst being full of memories and the friendship I missed.
I always enjoyed collecting things. Starting with toys (pokemon figure that I have nowadays) to games and even instruments (I play bass). What I love about pokemon cards is to be able to see my favorite pokemon interact with their environment, trainers and other pokemon, in a way Sometimes superior than what the games do
I started when I was 4, and I have gotten into the games, the cards, and more! I love Pokémon so much, I never really had that much luck until SV the cards I have pulled just look so cool. I love Collecting, I even have top load card binders. And I have also gotten back into actually playing the card game. On Christmas I pulled the 151 Charizard out it the mew premium collection, and I have recorded most of my early ETB openings, over time I have just learned how much Pokémon means to me and I could see myself buying packs for the rest of my life!
This is my set of Pokemon ever. The masterballs are going to make mastering this set a challenge which I'm going to try and do. Also when you don't speak the language it draws your eye to the artwork and gives it a whole new direction and appreciation.
as a kid I was a big fan back in xy era but I'm back now and its been tons of fun going to the Pokemon leagues and actually playing the tcg they give you prize packs too so you get your pack cracking fix
Collecting pokemon cards is relatively new to me (usually collected yugioh) but what makes it great is the variety of arts that make it nice collecting.
Thanks for being so fantastic and sharing your wisdom with us all! My mental health has really been suffering the last couple of years and I've recently gotten into collecting Pokémon alongside my 3 children and we are absolutely loving building this passion together ❤ we are especially loving collecting the Japanese sets and have been researching and delving into Japan as a topic (our kiddos are home schooled so we get to follow their interests 🎉) such a beautiful community! Thankyou! Xxx
151 is a fun set! I like collecting the cards of my favorite pokemon, its fun to put together a binder of characters and art i like, even if the cards aren't the high value ones.
I love collecting cards because I did it when I was a kid and now I get to share that hobby with my kids 👧 🧒 It’s been a stability in my life and I use to play with my friends when I was younger. Love the channel and the vids are produced excellently!
recently got into the collection journey when I saw the Greninja promo from Shrouded Fable, the ukiyo-e art style looks so awesome! I started off the collection with SV 151, hoping to complete the Base Set cause of the nostalgia, and the artwork for the cards are all so beautiful!
I like to collect pokemon cards because I started in my childhood and with 151 I did a fresh start. I would love to collect with my little daughter in a few years
Just started collecting and one reason I really like this hobby is because it feels productive. I'm no an alcoholic, but I have been getting a lot of weight recently and garb the occasional beer. Now I make myself choose only 1 of the two; between grabbing a cold one or a booster pack. Recently I've picked the Booster pack every time and it's just a little something I can look forward to every day now and something that builds up over time as a reward for spending my money on something with more value. Outside of that, I just really like the art and reconnecting with my childhood, what's not to like?
Pokemon card collecting and investing helped me get out of one of the darkest periods of my life. Just like Phil i had the same kind of responsibilities while going through depression. Educating myself on sets and making plays on singles gave me a spark of light in moment where everything was quite dark. It gave me strength and escapism. I will forever be grateful that pokemon exists and that the hobby is currently growing.
I collect Pokemon for the artwork. It’s come far from when I’ve started collecting as a child in 2000. I just started collecting again just 1 year ago.
The pokemon themself! I always liked the games, all of them I have played. And heard about Pokemon cards during the boom and I jumped in when Celebrations came out. I had so much fun with this set. And still today I managed to understand better what I enjoy collecting and what I want less, by trying things and learning from mistakes. I really love my cards to be in binder, I have not much graded cards because I feel if it is graded, it means something special to me that has to be displayed. Also all the sealed stuff that I collect, has to be products that I really enjoyed opening that I might what to enjoy again later on. Btw, your videos are on point. You have a nice way of thinking about the hobby and I recommand your videos hands up 🙌🔥
I just recently got back into collecting after finishing college. It’s been almost 10 years and I am so happy to have started again. I love the cards art work and seeing my favorite Pokemon displayed in new ways. Collecting and displaying my collection brings me joy and peace.
Love the nostalgia that the OG pokemon bring and now that 151 have revamped their artwork I can not wait to collect once again! The insights you share have definitely provided more clarity and guidance into this ever expanding hobby! Much Appreciated :)
I love collecting Pokemon cards because I think of it as a legitimate modern art practice that is accessible to the average person. I like that it is overall a hobby about positivity, curiosity, and being in wonderment like a child!
I started collecting when I was 5 ( I am 22 now getting back into the hobby after a large hiatus). I started collecting because all the big boys used to as they had the GBA games. Back in India finding these pokemon cards in 2006 were rare and it was something I enjoyed collecting and sharing these memories with my older bros. It helped thru tough times in my life especially the anime. I would really appreciate if I could get my hand on the give away as I would be able z to expand my collection and feel extra cool I have Japanese cards in them hehe. Thanks for the content ❤️
i enjoy Collecting pokemon Cards since ive been around the TCG since i was young, being able to open packs and see who gets what helped me bond with my brothers more. also its nice sometimes to just rip packs open and see if im lucky on that day hahah
Thanks for the great content! I enjoy collecting Pokemon cards because Pokemon was one of my first loves. I collected them in grade school and turns out almost 30 years later I am able to collect AND invest in them. I wish I realized sooner!
I just recently got back into collecting Pokémon cards for the first time since I collected base set back in 1999/2000. It is a lot more overwhelming than it use to be, but I am enjoying learning new things about the hobby everyday! Enjoying the channel!

This is my set of Pokemon ever. The masterballs are going to make mastering this set a challenge which I'm going to try and do. Also when you don't speak the language it draws your eye to the artwork and gives it a whole new direction and appreciation.
Probably to recreate the best and happiest times of my life. And love the new illustrations and full arts, something we didn’t had in the past.
Currently getting back into the hobby because my son is very interested since all the new shows and movies. Now I’m hooked in for the fun.
That's awesome!
as a kid I was a big fan back in xy era but I'm back now and its been tons of fun going to the Pokemon leagues and actually playing the tcg they give you prize packs too so you get your pack cracking fix
Im new to collecting, just started back after a trip to japan! Ready to start collecting to bring back my childhood!
Collecting pokemon cards is relatively new to me (usually collected yugioh) but what makes it great is the variety of arts that make it nice collecting.
You should do more openings. Really enjoyed this! I’ve opened quite a few boxes and I have set nearly complete. Biggest pull was Gengar masterball!
Mostly from my time collecting as a kid back in the 90s, what a time to be a kid!
I love pokemon
Been collecting since I was a kid and they still have me going! Pokemon is absolutely genius!
Just got back into tcg with my wife. We both grew up with pokemon and both love it
Straight up healing my inner child - thats why i’m collecting again

Growing up, it was difficult getting Pokemon cards. Now I got some bread and I chase the cards I couldn’t get back then

Thanks for the great content! I enjoy collecting Pokemon cards because Pokemon was one of my first loves. I collected them in grade school and turns out almost 30 years later I am able to collect AND invest in them. I wish I realized sooner!
Not a problem and thank you for watching! Its an awesome hobby. Thanks for entering.

I love collecting Pokémon cards because it brings back childhood memories and the thrill of finding rare cards is unmatched.
Collecting is enjoyable to do with my kids. I love seeing them get excited opening packs
I just recently got back into collecting Pokémon cards for the first time since I collected base set back in 1999/2000. It is a lot more overwhelming than it use to be, but I am enjoying learning new things about the hobby everyday! Enjoying the channel!
