I love my job, but something else is beckoning for me to focus on.

Surely this is why I have no points, not because I haven’t actually any.

The 4 largest payroll teams are forced to move some stars, the dodgers are the only franchise with a shot at winning a series rn. 15 teams have to take on the players moved by the T5 and/or pay players more. The big teams will still generate more than profit than the small.

Salary cap is the dumbest thing.

MLB's new proposals to the MLBPA, per @JeffPassan and @BNightengale: -Salary cap starts in 2028 so teams have time to prepare -Cap of $258.2M and floor of $180.2M (last proposal was $245.3M and $171.2M) -$1 million minimum salary (up from $780K) -Free agency after five years instead of six

Takuma Yamazaki won Worlds 2026. On this turn of the final, he had a guaranteed win and didn't take it. You're Sneasler + Basculegion. What do you click? Try it on our puzzle 👇

If you earned your prizing, rock out. (Standing in a line or creating a bot for checkout isn’t the same thing as competing in the game.)

i don't understand why people get upset that we sell our prize packs instead of opening them it's one of the ways to sustain our ability to travel all the time to continue playing the game i don't see what's wrong with that but i'm open to being educated on other viewpoints

Was at Louisville thinking about why more people aren’t running scrappy Lorb Kanga. Glad it’s finally seeing some play.

I’d like to seriously weigh in on the Nizza regional. As a hardcore Trick Room player, I’ve actually considered starting a Patreon and charging for tips—but after what I saw from some players today, I’m honestly embarrassed. Here are the best Trick Room teams for Nizza.

A lot of Vegas players didn’t get into our regional. I’m so excited for our community’s growth on the big stage but also in my local community. I really wish there was a way that locals could get some sort of priority registration for regionals, either way, I love Pokemon.

If a retailer is selling at market price I should be able to negotiate pricing. Shops do it, why not big box retailers?

Can confirm that Target will in fact be selling the 30th Celebration UPCs for $249.99 (MSRP is $179.99). I'm not too shocked, but damn that's wild. Walmart will likely be the same or very close to it #PokemonTCG
