Also I am not 100% sure because I don't have this card but I think it might be listed twice in the Snorlax Set too!

The Lost Origin Trainer Gallery (TG10/30) Card seems to be listed twice in the Snorlax set. *see below

The "Black Label" is the perfect quad 10 from a different grading company.

Hey @CGC Mike, Pokemon TCG just released a new product with metal cards, the Arceus V and Vstar. These metal cards seem a bit different to me when it comes to the color/painting on them, any word that you will be testing how to grade these metal cards? And if it might be as hard or easier for them? Thanks!

@CGC Lyndsey Yay thank you so much for the Snorlax set! Can't wait to see more for Snorlax! I would love to see next a set for the original jungle 11/64 holo Snorlax in all released languages, unlimited+first edition. 😁

Yes I was successful! I submitted about 8 cards, all 8 or 9 already, and all held their grade, but 1 of my cards, originally a 9, did come back as a 9.5. I think this is probably extremely rare and it also wasn't a very expensive card. Basically they do have to crack the slabs, re-examine them, but CGC Mike has posted in several posts that it is guaranteed your grade won't go down, unless it does get damaged when they try and crack it open.

You submit it the same as a raw card and select subgrades to be added. Your grade will not decrease and will be reslabbed and given a new cert number

Perfect 10s get sub grades added on for free! And yes you can resubmit cards to add subgrades, and the grade won't go down. And I did do it once and had the cards grade go up (9 -> 9.5!)

Why did you resubmit perfect 10s....? 🤑😵

I also would be interested in how to make a custom set 🤔

As of this afternoon it looks like the pop report is still not showing subgrade data, and just says every card in that grade has no subs.

I noticed about a week or two ago the pop report for pokemon stopped showing the breakdown of what cards have subgrades etc and now just show every card as "having no subgrades." Is CGC aware of this?

Getting Subgrades is the best you will get as far as more info

The registry sets are coming online fairly slowly. There is another subforum for the CGC Registry, I would suggest posting there what sets you would like to see added next!

That is very strange.... that Rayquaza Def should be a 9.5.

Im pretty sure there is a list of recognized errors on the website. Not sure if this one is in there but still super cool!

Oh wow that isn't even how I meant it, but super cool idea too! I meant like how we have the Chairzard Set, Venusaur Set, Alakazam Set etc already, they should prioritize enabling that for all of the original 151 pokemon first. A set with the first appearance of the original 151 pokemon would be super cool too tho!

Still on pause. CGC will announce when the solution is complete.

I think japanese sets are coming next once all the english main sets have been added

Okay no problem, thanks Mike!

Everyone's have been sitting at this stage since the pause in February.

Priority Mail insurance caps at $100 a package. (But for certain items can be extended up to $5,000) Registered/Insured mail that CGC returns ships with goes up to $50,000 and is less than the Priority mail add on.

I just got my email code yesterday to receieve a special delivery charizard from pokemon center and when I looked to see if it was on the submission form yet it still only showed Special Delivery Charizard with "Inadvertent Early Release." When mine shows up, is it safe to choose this option on my submission from, or should we wait till the submission form is updated?

Okay thanks Lindsey 👍😊

I was curious why two of my similar, yet very different in value cards have the same registry score. The cards Im talking about are: Snorlax Vivid Voltage Prerelease Promo, Blackstar Promo SwSh 068 And Snorlax Vivid Volatge Prelease Promo (Staff Stamp), Blackstar Promo SwSh 068. Both cards are a 9.5 and both yield the same 166 registry points. However, the staff stamp versions of promo cards are much rarer, with around 90% less of them showing up in the pop report as their non-staff stamp counterpart. Also from what I can tell looking at other registry sets, the Lugia+Snorlax+Donphan promos that are part of the vivide voltage set, all yield the same registry points at the same grades, but the 4th promo, Charizard, recieves more. Now I understand Charizard would get a premium, but if its based on monetary value should we not also see more registry points for the much rarer and expensive staff stamp promos for all 4? Let me know what you think and if there are any other cards like this that you have seen have this unexpected symmetry in registry points.
