Pokemon TCG collecting is the intersection of nostalgia, speculation, and community. @machampstrategy gets all three right.

Pulled a Machamp from a modern pack today. My 8-year-old asked why I was so excited. Hard to explain 28 years of context to an 8-year-old.

Today's grading lesson: The word 'mint' in Pokemon collecting means different things to different people. Only the PSA grade is objective. 📋

Fighting type collectors are the most serious collectors in the hobby. We're not chasing Pikachu hype. We're building for the long term. 🥋

The Japanese Pokemon card market is 2 years ahead of Western discovery. JP Machamp promos exist that most Western collectors have never seen.

Just added another Machamp to the binder. The collection grows. 🥊 #PokemonTCG #MachampStrategy
