Speaking of the cards, here's the deck in its full glory! I couldn't fit it all in one picture. Makeshift deck "box" to the left.

Of the reviews for BDSP so far, it seems like the main positive is that it's a faithful remake of Diamond and Pearl, and the main negative is that it's a faithful remake of Diamond and Pearl.

For those curious - I lost game 1, my opponent scooped game 2 (just to force a game 3, for funsies), and then got deck checked.

Talked with the judging staff afterwards, and if I didn't drop, I might have received a DQ - for marked cards! The oversized cards aren't cut to as high a standard as regular cards, so some cards could understandably be identified.

After what was probably the longest deck check I've ever witnessed, the deck was returned with "we're still not sure if this is playable, but finish up the round and talk to us afterwards".
I lost game 3, and then dropped (as I had intended to no matter what).

To say that Pokémon has been a big part of my life would be an understatement. Without Pokémon, I likely wouldn't have gotten into web development, which has led me to my current career. Pokémon has created many longtime friendships, local and international.

Love this anti-scalping technique that Pokémon Center Singapore is using! Yeah, it sucks if you collect sealed ETBs, but it's a worthy tradeoff IMO.

Pokémon Project Studio came in two versions - Red and Blue. To get images of all 151 Pokémon at the time, you needed both versions.

The people who are saying "you won't like Detective Pikachu unless you're a Pokémon fanatic" would probably also say "you won't like Finding Nemo unless you're a marine biologist"

For his birthday in 2009,
@Creatures_Inc
gifted Mr. Ishihara cards based off of his two dogs at the time, Pokey and Jeekun. Both dogs unfortunately passed away the next year (at 11 and nearly 16 years old, respectively), leaving these cards as a beautiful memory of the pups.

Reading through the more negative reviews of DetPika, and they generally boil down to:
- This movie was too serious for its own good
- This movie was too silly for its own good

Obviously it's because Bidoof deserves its own game. Putting it in with all the other Pokémon wouldn't give it the spotlight it needs.

Every single "Ash's Pikachu" distribution in the games has been male. In addition, in the episode "Where No Togepi Has Gone Before!", the female Togepi successfully locks Pikachu in an Attract.
