While I was asleep one Sunday, a series of explosions woke me. I live in the country, so usually these are gunshots being fired by our next-door neighbor–who doesn't use a berm or backstop. It sounded like something fell down in my closet, so I went to check–and there was a hole in the wall that went into my Tupperware bins full of Pokemon. Turns out my idiot neighbors shot a bullet into my house, and an Incineroar theme deck stopped it. The actual 9mm bullet was still inside the box. If it hadn't been there, it would have likely struck me while I was asleep as it was level with my bed.
A lovely man at our LCS bought me a new theme box and I'm okay, but I now count Incineroar as my guardian angel Pokemon and have never been happier to have piles of cardboard in my box. You never know–they might stop a bullet!

Can you please call the police on these folks? Lol but crazy story.
This is my worst nightmare. I live in an apartment and think about stuff like this!
I’m going to show my wife this as justification to buy more…
Jk in all seriousness so glad you are okay! That’s insane 😳
Reminds me when i got shot in the arm from my neighbour from inside there house (sadly it was family violence related and someone died)
I was holding my daughter at the time and im just happy she didnt get shot, also happy i didnt die and can still look after my family
Funnily enough my daughter was holding her pokemon cards at the same time
She heard the bang and house breaking, asked what was that, i knew i was hit but didnt panic and told her to go to her room while i called the ambulance and police

Here’s the report for the non-believers, who I hope enjoy the taste of hats.
Get Officer Jenny on the phone asap!
Jokes aside that’s a crazy story. Glad you’re okay! 🔥
Tell me which country you live in, without telling me which country you live in
Glad you’re all right, and hope you get new neighbours
Not to hate or anything but this story sounds batshit crazy as an European lol
Glad you are okay !

Now you gonna make a deck with incearoar in its honor it saved your life haha!
Get the pack graded !
And they say Sun & Moon hit rates are poor
Glad your okay
Incineroar is somehow even more of a beast. Glad you’re okay, pokemon is the best ain’t it
Intimidated the bullet 🙏🙏
Woah that’s horrific! But now you will never stop pokemon collecting! Lol. Regardless that truely is terrifying and you shouldn’t have to worry about that stuff happening.
Hats off to incineror
This post reminds me of that easer headset which stopped a bullet lol. But most importantly it’s a great thing that you’re fine. Hopefully your neighbours learn to use a backstop next time
You should get the Incineroar graded because that’s an awesome, yet scary, story! That way the card stays well protected in the plastic case.
Guy might be inbred, I believe based upon no evidence that inbreeding and firearm negligence seem to go hand in hand.

I live in the uk so I just need to worry about flying katanas and long swords.
This could be a series on tlc. How pokemon saved my life
As someone that lives in the city, stories like this of the country scare me lol.
Priceless cards
All I can say is ,OMG! Glad you are ok and crazy how a deck box stopped a stray bullet.
Wild man!!!
Damn Intimidate is working wonders, that bullet stood no chance against the enemy of VGC and all pokemon players.
Glad to see your safe from that Bullet mate!!
Inceneroar – “I… save… friends… Inceneroar… is… happy…”
What in the Actual Fuck? Good lord. God bless you and bless the Pokémon Gods and the good Lord himself for looking out for you. Shit…as humble as you are, you deserve the world right now. I know I’d be stuffing that Inceneroar up someone’s asshole right now! No sleeves, no lube.. straight raw dogging that sphincter!
Damn! Glad you’re good! I’d be the biggest Incineroar fan boy ever after that 😂
‘murica
Please tell me your neighbor is sitting in a jail cell…
Saw other comments, damn your cops are lazy.
well, Wolfey from VGC would love to know about it lol. good thing you’re safe. good luck with the asshat of your neighbor
Get the bullet graded
If this is Marion County Sheriff’s department I’d be hounding Mr. Billy Woods until he took those hicks guns. That’s unacceptable. Only good thing to come out of Ocala is A Day To Remember
My vgc goat fake out parting shot intimidate incin saved the day, on a real note tho stay safe
What were the specific cards that made the ultimate sacrifice?
Great now scalpers are going to sell pokemon cards as armor.
Someone needs to show this story to Wolfe Glick
Can you call the cops on this for property damage?
Holy fucking shit, that is insane and your neighbor needs to have his guns taken away, or a charge. Something. I’m glad you’re safe though, and okay, but certainly a scare.
Incineroar tattoo you say?
Wolfe: INCINEROAR IS SO GOOD HE STOPS BULLETS IRL
Report this to the police, it’s extremely irresponsible
