Hey everyone! Sabrina here, I had a fun idea for a nerdy data project a while back and figured here would be the best place to do it :)

Comment your favorite pokemon and I'll work on creating an interactive graph showing which mons are the most popular!

Hey lovely people! We have some cool stuff on the horizon for this week to look out for:

• ✅ Pokemon Center already dropped Chaos Rising preorders today, so with that out of the way, we have one less retailer to worry about ^((although pkc has dropped twice in a week before, so don't completely take your guard down)!)
• 🌄 Sam's Clubs will be restocking the Black Bolt & White Flare Poster Collections tomorrow at open, which is 8am for Plus members and 9am for normal members. Membership discount links are posted below! The price will be $39.99, limit 2 items per SKU. It is usually very advantageous to get a Plus membership, as in some heavier populated cities, product can sell out within the first 30 minutes.
• 🏪 Some Family Dollars have been verified to be restocking First Partner Collection Boxes, so if you're near one, go check out out NOW!! The price for those is $14.99, which is MSRP.
• 🏢 On the same note, some Best Buys have also been verified to be allowing customers to order products by SKU, namely, Prismatic ETBs. The SKU for those is 6606082. Here is the process to order by SKU in person.
  • You approach the cashier nicely and politely ask to order a product by SKU#.
  • Give them the SKU# listed above. About half of Best Buys our members have gone to have been denying the orders. Some have been ordering the ETBs for them though. So if you want a Prismatic ETB and are close to a Best Buy, this might be your best shot.
• ⏱️ Lastly, Target and Walmart should be dropping their preorders for Chaos Rising within the next week or two. Historically, target preorders are anywhere from a month to a couple weeks before a product's given release date, same with Walmart. So keep them on your radar! Especially this Wednesday. 👀

Feel free to join our free discord server where we discuss pokemon, restocks, and collecting! We'll be trying to hit these drops as well, so come hang out and say what's up. :) 🤜🤛💯
