Thanks for including the Pokemon mystery gift codes! The Grimmsnarl code is THA12022CHAMP, for anyone else trying to redeem it. I woulda definitely missed these without you guys!

Thank you for the correction Val! This was a mistake that was caught during editing, but for some reason didn't update once we published it. We hope everyone is able to redeem this code!

I never had opportunities to do in-person events to get Pokémon. It was usually those game codes my boyfriend and I find at our local game store. It seemed like something that's more for convenience, so I imagine it's not as fun as going to a convention and meeting others along the way. I do like your idea of a hybrid setup so it meets in the middle for people who may not be able to attend the in-person events and for those who love to go to those events to network and bond with people.

On the topic of trading cards, I collect them myself. I don't really play the game itself, it's more like having a physical Pokédex of some kind. I still have a lot of older cards from way back in the day. It's also really nostalgic because I started with a Magmar card gifted to me by a friend in elementary school and then my dad bought booster packs and decks to help build my collection. All those cards hold a special place in my heart after all this time.

Thanks so much for your comment, Roxie! There's definitely pros and cons to both in person and online Pokémon distributions. It was great to read about your TCG collection too, I hope that you continue to take good care of them, and I wish you the best of luck in your future collecting endeavours!
