a Thanks for the unsolicited input on what my items are worth . The lightnings alone would get me close to either the boostwheels . b Hold value , sure . This is an investment opportunity , look at how much striker items have spiked in the past few weeks . c As is said in my post , i have no problem with holding onto these items , I was curious to see if i could get an alpha set out of them with the current prices . <| sep |> There ' s also the rerun event in December which is water as well . <| sep |> These just keep getting better and better D <| sep |> I really struggle to replay through BW 2 , something about the story and how you progress just makes me lose interest after I get past Route 4 . All the railroading just got on my nerves , and it felt like you were supposed to catch and use specific Pokemon in each playthrough . It was fresh and interesting the first time , but I just can ' t replay through it . I ' ve replayed through BW about 4 or 5 times now and have never had a problem , but BW 2 just bores me , and I ' m not 100 % sure why .
