Summary
APokemon TCGfan has had an incredible and harrowing experience, discovering that a collection of thePokemoncards had saved their life from a stray bullet. ThePokemon TCGfan’s story has shocked other players, and while some were suspicious of the tale, the fan has provided evidence to back up the claim.
In recent years, somePokemon TCGsellers have been targets of criminals who wanted to make a quick buck by getting away with high-value cards or a large volume of the cards. Recently, aPokemon TCGseller got paid counterfeit cash, but managed to turn the experience around by working with the cops to catch the buyer. However, in this particular case, it’s thePokemon TCGcards themselves stopping a crime from happening.
In a post on Reddit,Pokemon TCGcollector LolaInSlacks88 shared their frightening story of how they could have died when a neighborshot a gun at their house, but theirPokemoncards saved them. During the night, they heard what sounded like explosions, followed by the noise of something falling in their closet. They went to check, and discovered that a box holding theirPokemoncards had a hole in it, which also aligned with a new hole in the wall. Further examination revealed that there was a 9mm bullet in the box, and their Incineroar deck had stopped the bullet from going any further. LolaInSlacks88 notes that the box was stored at the same height as their bed, and they believe that if it hadn’t been there the bullet may have very well carried on and hit them while they were asleep.
Pokemon TCG Fans are Stunned and Impressed
Fellow fans in the comments have been quick to state how shocked they are at this life-threatening experience and how lucky the player is for theirPokemon TCG cardsto have saved them. Some expressed doubt about the incident, to which LolaInSlacks88 shared a photo of the results of a police report they had made following the experience. They note that they have heard their neighbor firing in the past, but never had a moment as harrowing as this one before. While the experience may be difficult for some to believe, there have been reports of a deck of cards in a pocket allegedly stopping a bullet from striking a soldier during the First World War, so it’s not out of the question.
LolaInSlacks88 now considers Incineroar to be their guardian angelPokemon, and the card is now in a magnetized card protector on their fridge as a little good luck charm. Someone also bought them anewPokemon TCGtheme boxat their local card store, presumably after hearing the shocking story. There are some concerns remaining regarding the player’s safety from future incidents, but they’re likely to feel gratitude to thePokemon TCGfor the rest of their life.
