The "don't compare your collection to others" sentiment is a great lesson in general and can be applied to many aspects of your life. Love it dude!

Tell that to missprint collectors, also comparing with others could give you ideas how to organize it to look much better

I wholeheartedly agree with this, a while ago I sold my collection because it was overwhelming me and taking over too much of my life. Then 151 came out and I fell in love. Now I’m solely focusing on a binder that will eventually have a master set of 151 as well as my favorite artworks of the original 151 Pokémon from sets I’ve accumulated along the way. As a 90s kid, the nostalgia helped me refocus as a collector. Having a goal and design in mind has made this hobby 10x more fun and more manageable than it was before!

I didn't know I need a coaching video in Pokemon cards collecting until I watched this video lol. Thank you for such great video.

this for me hit home, i was a crazy collector once just garbbing anything and everything and never completing, now i focus on 1 set at a time and complete a binder and give dupelicates away to the pokemon community, Pat as always you are a legend my friend, keep bringing us gold videos like this, see you at CP2 in June

I remember pulling a Latias & Latios GX 170/181 in my first ever pack of Team Up about a year ago. I got it graded and it came back a gem mt 10. That is 100% what I am most proud of in my collection.

im most proud of my full art mega charizard from evolutions because for my birthday my cousin gave me on pack and i remember telling him i loved this particular card, then i got it! i'll never trade that card

I started collecting Pokémon cards just a few months ago and I’m from Dominican Republic and it’s been sooo hard, there ain’t many collectors or shops here, you can find some players, but collectors are hard to find. Your channel always inspires me to keep it up, even though it can be hard at times

This video helped me out so much! I am someone who collects and spends a lot of time researching and collecting not only Pokémon cards, but 80s toys, Funko Pops, Star Wars products, Masters of The Universe products, etc. and I struggle with storage. This video helped me out a lot with Pokémon card collecting! Thank you!

I love opening up Pokemon cards for my KZread Channel but what I’m most proud of is knowing that I found the love for Pokemon again. I’ve started my journey in June and since then I’ve been very happy. I don’t have a particular collection just yet but soon I will see what catches my eyes. Thanks Pat for everything you do for the community and I hope to one day be apart of these videos

I’m most proud about the fact that at the start of the year I only had nine v’s and now I have over 200 alt arts,golden cards, v’s ,vmax’s, etc and this channel inspired me to do so, so thanks pat

Been collecting groudon! Was losing hope but at trade night I managed to find 3! Honestly, I do look at my collection ALOT. It’s been definitely helping me determine what can come and go. We sort our bulk in empty ETBs and label them. Might be doing something with our bulk involving our trip to Card Party 😏😉

As someone who's been in this for 25 years, this was actually all very good advice. Although I've rarely if ever let anything go. For the first 8 years of Pokémon I just collected everything - complete sets and every promo, but by the time of Gen 4, it all became too much and I just collected certain things. My main collections are Artist (Arita in JPN and ENG for example) or Species completism (JPN & ENG). I've got so many cards now that it's taken over parts of my house.

i don’t collect pokemon cards, but i am still a fan of your channel and this advice has really impacted the way i sort and yugioh cards. i have been a professional player for the past few years and my desk is always covered in random yugioh cards that are either bulk or useful stuff. just having this advice has completely turned around my collection. thank you so much ❤️

I can't comprehend how much this channel grew it's like I just saw it cross 100k yesterday and it's now almost at 800k incredible

Pat, I think I’m most proud of my Trainer Gallery collection. I haven’t completed any yet because prices are insane 😅 but I have made great progress. Thanks for being an inspiration to us all DPM, see u at Card Party 🎉

LOVED this! Great reminders! I’m most proud of my artist binder collections and specific pokemon collection binders

Videos like this are always nice to watch from time to time. It really helps you stay down to earth, and remember that as a long time collector these things may be obvious to me, but that's not true for everyone. Especially for people just getting into collecting for the first time.

Great video and some awesome advice! It took me a year of getting back into collecting to decide what I liked about collecting and now stay in my lane, save a lot of money and have a lot more fun!

Only been getting back into Pokemon over the past few months now, collecting for nostalgia and also something I can hand down to my son one day every card I get now gets put into a binder with the thought of one day when my son looks at this he will have the same smile and wow factor that I had 😊 Pat I love your content also try my best to watch everything I can especially the lives you do great work mate 👍🏻

I am one of the many who recently returned to collecting because of 151. I'm still figuring out my collection and where I want to go, first it was full arts then I started collecting vintage. Now I want to complete base set thru gym challenge heros, along with randomly picking up cards I like. Still figuring out this process but this video was very informational!

Brilliant video and love the commitment to it with the hose 😅. I definitely get lost with wanting to collect too much but I gravitate towards the cards that bring me joy. Almost always it's the vintage cards and there are sets like Southern Islands I could never part with ❤

I learned this the hard way when i got back in to collecting. Now im just sticking to collecting the all the artworks of my fave mon and maybe making the effort to complete smaller sets! Awesome vid DPM! Asking for that refill with a water hose took me out lol!

Insane production value and storytelling! Keep it up 😊

Great video! One of your earlier videos talked about focusing down on a niche and not trying to collect EVERYTHING which stuck with me! I collect Steelix Engish and Japanese cards as a core focus, with a few other random cards I like here and there to spice things up. Done are the days of trying to master set EVERY set because I realized I ended up with a ton of bulk and I was spending money on cards I didn't really care about just to complete a set.

I'm a little under 3 minutes into this video and god damn 😂 The production is so, so on point 🙌 Points so far have been good too, especially NOT TRYING TO COLLECT EVERY CARD, IN EVERY EXPANSION, FROM EVERY SERIES. I think targeting specific cards is crucial! Awesome content man, keep it up, awesome knowledge for the Community. ❤

Awesome video! Definitely something new collectors struggle with. When I started collecting I wanted everything! Now I am focusing on art rares of the first 4 generations

This made me feel so much better about my collection, thank you so much for this video. It really means a lot to me. 💙💜

Just got around to watching this one. Wonderful advice! Thank you

This was an another amazing video, and was very inspirational. If I had to pick my favorite item(s) in my collection, it would have to either be my recent Southern Islands pickup as it has a lot of history and I find that as interesting, or my aunts binder that was given to me full of base set-Gym Challenge cards because of how I got it and who I got it from, and the history behind it.

Really enjoyed this video. Helps to keep things in perspective.

Such a simple and very helpful video. Thanks for your videos and funny parts )

In general I try to collect any cards that has a different illustration, but trying to focus my collection to not spend too much, I go with my favorite pokemon! I almost completed my volcarona/slither wing/iron moth collection and I discovered special edition of these cards a week ago like a STAFF one that I never seen before and it's a must now hahaha

Great video as always Pat

Thank you for the info pat!!!

Man... I really wished I watched this video sooner(and this channel as a whole really) When I was a lot younger, like during the early 2000s, I did collect quite a bit of pokemon cards and I knew gen 1 like the back of my hand. But as I grew older, I started to get busy with life and all. For some reason, earlier this year, after almost 2 decades, now with some adult money, I started to fall in love with collecting again(though what brought me back was one piece TCG initially), but this channel has really been a blessing and I'm just so happy seeing all the videos and collecting cards again myself. I feel like, in a way, I'm now trying to slowly heal the inner child inside of me who had to stop collecting at one point in time for whatever reason. Thank you, pat. Just...thank you

such a great video man, really one of the best I’ve ever seen, the knowledge, the humor, everything so on point.

Great video I was thinking of the same thing. Good job. Definitely good for new and current collector's. Some will forget.

I didn't know where to start, so I decided to begin 'project pokedex', where I'm filling a binder with one of every pokemon in National Dex order. Whenever i get a new card of a pokemon i already have, i decide which artwork i prefer and keep that one. Its super fun and means I can collect from any set :)

This is the best KZread pokemon channel

Nice vid always appreciate tips for new collectors

I can relate to the problem of trying to collect everything and its making collecting much less enjoyable, so I was thinking of starting to collect promo cards since I’ve always loved opening all the boxes!!! I think i will start with a series like sword and shield then hopefully make my was down to some more vintage cards! This video was great, thanks Pat

Thanks for the info. I've been lost in so many different products. Thanks for the info.

I just started collecting. Very lightly though. In the theme of "catch 'em all" my goal is to make a "living dex" from packs my wife and I have exclusively opened. Our rarest or favorite card will take up each pokemon spot and replace previous editions with newer/better ones as we continue to open more packs. Keeping in separate binder(s) the other cards we just like

I needed this. I still haven't completely found out, what I wanna focus on, so I've been doing a little of everything.. Time to narrow it down and focus on one or two things 💪

FANTASTIC video! Figuring out what to collect is a challenge. there are too many cards to catch them all (unless you have an unlimited budget). I try to adhere to most of these already, fortunately. I work towards "sets" by only keeping 1 copy of any card I pull. Exceptions would be the big hitter names that may appreciate over time. (rayquaza, pikachu, starters, etc).

Keep Up the good work Pat!❤

I just started collecting last week, I have no concern of how impressive or expensive my collection is, I just enjoy seeing the different art for each card and like getting a bunch of new art to look at, it is just satisfying to see, and the rare cards are just a coll little treat that deserves to be displayed on its own. It is very much like videogame collecting. I just enjoy seeing it all together.

loved this. i actually have a hard time letting go some cards but this helps. also started buying better binders after watching your videos

What binders did you start using? I've been a big fan of gamegenic 12 pocket zippered binders for master sets.

Great video Pat! Good reminder to do something with my box of bulk :😮

I recently(sommer 2023) started again to collect pokemon cards(first time since my youth) and your Videos about how to collect, storage and binder behavior really save me :D i am about to complete my master set of 151 :D just two cards missing!

Last year, I bought the Pokemon Holiday Collection and out of one pack of Evolving Skies, pulled the Rayquaza VMAX. I was in shock, to say the least....my best pull ever. My actual collection goals are really to complete modern sets as they are released (started getting back into it with Celebrations.). Also, I do collect Eevee and all it's evolutions in a special binder. That bulk adds up for sure, and I sell some singles that are duplicates but agree the selling side is another discussion. Thanks Pat!!

Some great advice thank you

Thank you so much, this was inspirational.

Great vid Pat. 👍🏼

I love my Yuka Morri (clay) and Asako Ito (yarn) arts and crafts collection! current favorites I own are drapion v from crown zenith and altaria also from crown zenith. Goal is to get something more vintage next!

Great video fam! creativity level 9000

i mostly collect alt art cards since i'm an artist myself, the art on pokemon cards is so wonderful what I am most proud of in my pokemon card collection is my ingo and emmet card I have, they are my favs from pokemon and when I finally got my hands on a full art card from them I am so happy, it is still a of the cards I am most proud of

love your row of same colour and named binders at the end

I barely just started collecting pokemon cards and this video really made me feel happy with my small collection I have atm. My goal is to get as many gyarados I can find, but of course collect a lot of cool looking pokemon cards. Amazing and helpful video ❤️

Well made Video! I'm a Nintendo Collector that collect games, consoles, pokemon cards and figures and your tip works on both card collecting and games collecting 😁

Another great video Pat

Uncommon diamond common circle, rare star

“Comparison is often the thief of joy” is so true in collecting! I think one thing you left out is do NOT let FOMO dictate how you collect or cause impulse buys. But yeah great overall video, staying in your lane is easily the most important thing!

I like to hold on to one of each card- like the holos or best condition one- and donate/trade the rest. I order them by type and dex number in my binders, and the act of ordering them that way is therapeutic and nostalgic to me. It's easy to get overwhelmed by the expanse of expensive and new pokemon card out there, but every time I reoder my cards I am reminded why I have them.

I started collecting last December with the goal to complete the National dex but with a twist of collecting them all in reverse holos. Now 6 months later I’m only 100 or so cards away from completing it. It isn’t worth a ton but when it’s done it will look amazing! Thanks for the tips Pat! See you at Card Party!

This was one of the best videos you have made. It was super inspiring. The collection I’m very proud of is my Charizard collection. I have over 30 super rare Charizards.

i had a hard time deciding what to collect when i started last year and you're right i had a thing where i saw others collection and was like, damn this is sooo much better, but since i started i drilled into my mind that i cant have what everyone else has because of where i'm located and i'm buying on a budget, and ever since i've had no fomo and i've boiled down to collecting holo rares and anythign fullart, gold, sar, alt art and promos, so i'm glad for anything i can get to purchase, the bulk i use with my friends to make decks we play against each other with

wow love this video subscribeddd

Yeeeees 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I know I gotta organize my collection, just haven’t gotten there yet 😅

Great video. You earned a sub.

And the entire video Ive been watching that Blackstar amp. Had a HT-5 myself and it had an amazing sound!

I’ve been buying singles and it’s been so much fun :). Seeing my collection come together and building cards that I like!

Most proud of my Machamp Alt Art from Astrial Radiance because I hunted that card like crazy and finally pulled it with my buddies on a bachelor party weekend!!

My binder is an absolute mess 😂 Thanks for the vid man we needed a continuation to the BAD --- BEHAVIOUR series haha

Great advice, collector's fatigue is real. I love collecting cute + fairy Pokemon and my favorite Poko is Psyduck. :)

I'm proud of the rainbow pikachu from vivid voltage. It was the first set I opened I had a ETB and pulled it. For me I also have a duplicate binder for any high rarities I already have. Eventually when I'm able to I want to start trading with people. Also I've been thinking about giving away cards when I'm out. Amazing video Pat this will definitely help me get a better grip of my collection.

I actually collection One Piece TCG not Pokemon, but I always getting some knowledge on your videos! Thanks for making me Happy on Collecting some Cards!

I’m currently trying to complete my Scarlet and Violet base set. I am a big collector of stadiums (I never knew why, I just kind of got hooked on them😅), and in over 10 years, I still don’t have cards for all of the eeveelutions so I’m working on that too. I have had all of my cards for so long that, when it comes to trading, I don’t really like it because I have become attached to all of the cards in my collection😅 I hope to meet you one day, keep up the great work!❤️

So happy to learn I am collecting "the right way". I am much like the Rayquaza girl, but collecting Snorunt and Froslass. I'm pretty far with the English and Japanese cards, but my lane sometimes gets wider. I learned about Japanese sets having both Unlimited and First Edition cards, for example. New sets keep coming, of course. And then there are the remaining languages, which I am keeping as a stretch goal for now. The hardest part is to resist the urge to buy ETBs, as collecting a species means buying singles and not really pulling them yourself!

I love how you can really tell how much time and effort pat puts into his videos it’s awesome

At first i collected everything. Now i sold almost everything and only collect Steelix PSA cards. This makes collecting indeed way more fun. I would never tought i would own a Shining card in PSA. But here i am proudly with my Shining Steelix in a PSA9. Holy grail for me atleast. Collecting slabs for me is way more fun now so that i can showcase and display my pride and joy. Happy New year and keep it up 👌

The don't compare and the stay on lane are the best ones, I love my dex, simple, I know people have complete sets or ilustration rare dex, but building my own on a budget has been an amazing experience

I collect Gold Energies, so finding a gold fairy energy in pretty decent condition was really special to me, I also put initials on ANY sleeves of cards gifted to me.

Im a new collector to this hobby and thanks for this advice. ❤

i'm collecting a binder with all bulk Eevee's and Eeveelutions , from the first eevee from base . but only the normal cards no full arts or alt arts. and i do that as well for bulbasaur and Mew. i love it.

Then you have me that isn't really randomly collecting, i went into a store before xmas to get some gifts and seen the Pokemon SV 151 promos, nostalgia took over and i'm just going to complete the set and be done.

currently collecting all full art trainers in english because I love the different characters from the world of pokemon, also collecting ex era reverse holo foils and lvl x pokemon which remind my childhood

Love your content and I love collecting Pokémon cards

DPM! your content is unlike anyone elses in the poketube space. keep doing your thing!

After 6 years of collecting, I’ve finally focused in on one single binder. It’s a 16x16-1024 total-master binder. I collect, for example, my 4 favorite Arcanine cards. When a new, cooler arcanine comes around, I’ll replace an old one by selling it and using the funds to buy the new arcanine. Super focused and it makes collecting endless and fun for me!
