This week on Holo Hustle, we break down the Kabuto King phenomenon and what it teaches us about hype, market manipulation, and why chasing viral cards can be a dangerous game. From there, we dive into four cards of the week — including Serena Rainbow Rare, Charizard Gold Star, and two Umbreon heavy hitters — to uncover where real value still exists. It’s a mix of market psychology, smart collecting, and a reminder that sometimes the best move isn’t buying the loudest card… it’s buying the smartest one.

Episode 7 is basically a hobby intervention. We’re talking overpaying, bad grading candidates, population report nightmares—everything that keeps collectors up at night. Then we redeem ourselves with four killer cards you should be looking at, proving that yes, you can make smart decisions in this hobby. Occasionally.

This week on The Holo Hustle, we dive headfirst into the fiery chaos that is Phantasmal Flames, dissecting the hype, the risks, and why Mega Charizard X might just be hotter than that Pumkin Spiced Latte you just snagged. Then we break down five cards—from high-end vintage hits like Dragonite #9 and Entei First Edition to budget-friendly sleepers like Zamazenta IR—all with raw-to-PSA 10 multipliers that could make your jaw drop. If you’ve ever squinted at an eBay listing and thought, “Hmm… maybe this is worth a thousand bucks?”—this episode is your official permission slip to nerd out responsibly.
