Made this video a while ago, but wanted to show how i'm storing my Pokémon Battling Coins these days!
Bought 56 Pokémon Battling Coins recently! I paid a reasonable price for them, and I require 29 of them to add to my collection. Maybe I'll eventually catch them all?
We have added a further two links to our Pokémon Links page recently (Plume Fossil and Wynn's Wonderful Pixel Paradise) taking the total to 160! Find something new today! www.johtotimes.com/page/links
Thanks to the kind generosity from one of my team on Johto Times, I was able to complete my English Rowlet card collection! The last three cards arrived from the USA this morning. Extremely thankful to him, and others who helped me to collect them all. Operation Round Bird complete (for now)!

Added another two cards I was missing towards my Neo Genesis collection this week. I'm still a ways off from completing it though. It's also my very first Bellossom card from any set, which was a surprise to discover!
Hey everyone I waited outside a store for INVENTORY and got some PRODUCT today! At the RRP of £3.99 as it should always be ❤️
Hey everyone! I'm selling this cool Pokémon card: Bulbasaur (near mint)
My friend bought this Pokémon Indigo League Blu-ray for me a few years ago, and its such a shame that more episodes and series didn't follow. As a huge fan of physical, it would have been fantastic to have a Blu-ray dedicated to each season on my shelf.
I don't normally buy cards towards my Neo Genesis collection because it's out of reach for me, but I had an opportunity to buy this Feraligatr for £50 today, and I took it!
The first three movies had yellow tapes! But as soon as Miramax took over for Pokémon 4Ever, gone went the yellow cases, and the free Pokémon promo cards 🤬
There's a lot of talk around physical media recently, I hope everyone is paying attention to that conversation! There's so much that can be said about it and not enough for a single post. But i'll say this: Physical media is so important, whether you're reading, listening, playing or watching it!
I grew up in a low income family, and we struggled to get by. Despite this, mum bought me a pre-owned Game Boy Color with Pokémon Blue. That was a lot of money for her to part with for me that week, and I will always be grateful for it. Physical media is so important and we should fight to keep it.
Bought some Pokémon snacks a couple of weeks back from a Japanese supermarket. I've had the wafer before, but these Poké Peace Strawberry flavoured corn snacks are great! Cute little Pikachu sticker too. Pity it wasn't Rowlet :(
Received a pretty significant card in the mail today, bringing me ever closer to completing my English Rowlet card collection! Can anyone confirm if its real or not? I believe it is, however I never collected this set before and I want to ask the experts that follow :)
A new issue of Johto Times will release tomorrow! If you've subscribed, it should appear inside your inbox at some point tomorrow. Hope you enjoy it! johtotimes.com/newsletter/s...
I spent weeks looking at this Lugia. I'm very sorry but his dumb looking face got me laughing so much, I had to buy! Originally released by Banpresto in 2015, it was part of a "UFO Plush" series, at least that's what my research found. I will treasure him!
Have you checked out the Pokémon focused websites in our Links page yet? We have 158 of them (and growing) Find something new today! johtotimes.com/page/links
I've started a folder which will contain the first 251 Pokémon in Pokédex order, featuring cards of different languages and from different expansions. I've been inspired by a couple of friends to make one after seeing theirs. Had to go with this Bulbasaur! Open to your suggestions for cards to add!
An update on the 30 active Pokémon fansites & communities in our Starter Pack. Here's how they rank this month! Given the recent changes in Google search, its even more important to get the word out there, so please consider giving each of them a follow from our Starter Pack: go.bsky.app/9ZYmKgz
Rowlet collection update! I am so close to owning every single English Rowlet card, but some are escaping me and I worry I am not going to be able to get these as easily That being said, I am very proud of this little collection of Rowlets!
I recently picked up even more of these Pokémon Battle Coins recently. They were released in 1999 by Hasbro, I just think they're really cool!
Another issue of Johto Times will be going up tomorrow! I hope you'll give it a read once it goes up! If you haven't already, please consider subscribing to the newsletter, and receive each new issue directly in your inbox! johtotimes.com/newsletter/s...
