What is ASMR?
ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response. It's a non-scientific word that an everyday person came up with to describe the feeling characterized as a pleasurable tingling sensation felt in the head, scalp, back and other regions of the body in response to visual, auditory, tactile, olfactory, and/or cognitive stimuli, such as crinkling bags, hand movements, whispering, personal attention or watching someone perform a task. It's like goosebumps but much more pleasant and without the uncomfortable chills.
ASMR videos are meant to intentionally induce this sensation in the viewer, often referred to as "tingles", but the videos also serve to provide a relaxing, calming and soothing experience for the viewer. Many people who do not experience ASMR still enjoy the videos for their calming and sleepy effect.
"Dad, why do you need my Pokemon cards?"
*looks to wife*
*looks back to son*
-"...Work."
Those are probably his
I was about to say
😂😂
Daddy why do you have a bloody axe in your room?
DADDY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY HOLO TEXTURE PROMOTIONAL ULTRA RARE JAPANESE FULL ART MEGA RAYQUAZA EX??????
Me: cranks up volume to hear all the tingles
UA-cam: *PEGI EIGHTEEN*
Kems Kun EARRAPE RRREEEEE
F
Kems Kun Hopefully you have recovered.
Download youtube vanced, and problem solved
Kems Kun I feel like ASMR always has the loudest ads on them
Only trade your doubles kids.
You never know when you're gonna regret a choice
Except Magikarp get rid of them all
Still regrettin’ my Umbreo EX fullart.
But what if the deal is too good
Lesson learned
I once traded a dragonite for a psyduck
The funniest thing is: Every time he showed one of "my cards" I was like: "Hey, I actually have that card!"
Nice Collection then!
Dang bro
Plot twist: those are your cards and you’re just noticing right now.
Imagine what this would be like in the pokemon world just a guy in a dark suit behind an alley trading pokemon with you kinda sketchy
Same
UA-cam knows I’m just dying to have a dude whisper to me about Pokémon cards at 2 am
Me: Who would recommend stuff at 2 AM?
UA-cam: Oh boy! 2 AM!
They’re right.
@@sonofconnaught2945 I really hope the reference was on purpose 10/10
I'm watching this at 9pm lol
It's 5am actually and yes xD
The beard really completes the trader look.
Snazzy Feathers ikr
True
Idk he's missing about 200 lbs and some ill fitting legwear
Homeless guy on the street sells kid rare pokemon cards so he can get some tingles out of it
Snazzy Feathers looks like if a trade goes south hed pull either a wooden bat or a switch blade out real fast
I can't tell which idea I like better, E.R asking his kid to borrow their cards or those cards actually belonging to E.R in the first place.
It's highly likely those cards are his- he DOES play Magic the Gathering after all, its not that big a stretch to say he also plays Pokémon.
Why not both?
@@jasondoesanime1237 Probably some he bought for the video honestly. not sure he's too big on Pokemon with how he said Venusaur
@@tm0675 i think he said some names wrong on purpose to be honest.
Well, I don't play, but I do collect them.
"Your Thundurus for my Mareanie?"
*odd stare*
"Alright. That's a deal."
N3lag why does that sound so sexual in a way? 😂 "thunderous for my mareanie"
Maybe its just my strange mind
@ArOne his name changed and that didn't click for a second, you can imagine my confusion as I thought that was a nickname
E.R was like "ill take that as a yes"
*Heyy moooom?! I´m gonna go trade Cards with that bearded, hooded man in his dark basement again..*
_Have fun, hunniee_
lol
Lol my mom bitches whenever I leave the house to go fishing in our pond which is like 50 feet from the front porch

This is for sure one of my favourite ASMR videos on UA-cam, even if I discovered this channel only a few weeks ago. Hope to see another pokemon card trader video like this in the future 😃
2 more are posted!
Thanks for this brother 🙏🎉
Not going to lie I'm really impressed with this. He got majority of the names right and definitely did his research on the TCG. Hats off to you sir ER. 👍
Olivia Anne Hall there's a big chance he was already playing it
These are the comments that people put to get pinned... DISGUSTING
He did get some of the types wrong, but the types he mixed up didn’t have their own symbols
I think he already plays
thing is, he traded a marenie for a thunderus
idk if he really knows his stuff
Uncle E used ASMR
... It's super effective
Bookmulch Forthegame That was beautiful
-The enemy has fallen asleep!-
Lmao that's so perfect if you've ever played Pokémon 😁
Sleep/paralysis effects combination. Your will has been charmed
Bookmulch Forthegame “Everyone” has fainted!
Lucario for Primal Kyogre? Audino for Groundon? I think this entire asmr video was just to trick me into giving up my legendary pokemons...
So ...
if u say PokemonS once more in my area im going to find you and i will let u learn every pokemon name on 3 different languages. Other than that nice comment
lmao

Normal ASMRists doing this type of video: Get really cheap cards that are really bad
Rift: proceeds to pull out a break and several other good cards
Yes
he probably spent the hard earned money just for his fans
I’m sorry but break cards ain’t that valuable
Nothing against it, just pointing it out
me: *trades yugioh for pokemon*
me: um... you forgot to sleeve your cards homie
@@kieranSI I have an ftk deck XD
No sleeves? *Absolutely Barbaric*
aeksie He seems to take care of his things quite well. Perhaps he removed the sleeves to make the video.
actually the tapping noise that he makes by (duh) tapping his fingers/fingernails on the card wouldn't be achieved with the sleeves on
aeksie oh get over it
@@YonderTie WOOOSH

Genuinely great to see a Pokemon ASMR video that isn't just Gen I mons.
Steven Narey
EXACTLY!!!
Gen 1 is the most annoying gen in my opinion with its overhype
"ooh, nostalgia! I'm cool, notice me!"
It's just stupid
Astra Nox it's the second worst gen for sure.
Steven Narey for me it is the worst. Its annoying when you have a genwunner brother who cant open his mind for any other gen.
Pokémon and ER, together at long last! My happiness rose sharply! ;)
I just wish I had that Lucario card in real life...
Morgan Gobin that was an amazing thing you did there. “My happiness rose sharply” it made me happy :3
I really wish I had the Mega Blaziken EX, cuz as you can see by my pfp, I love Blaziken XD
Pierce Keller Haha, thanks! Glad I could put a smile on someone else’s face! :)
As for me, Lucario is my favorite Pokémon, but I don’t care for it’s Mega that much. Absol actually has my favorite Mega.
I love Lucario a lot :3
Morgan Gobin me too
Morgan Gobin oh I have one of those
Of course I had a Detective Pikachu ad for this video lmao
Darnell Johnson I got a Detective Pikachu DVD at the store and got a detective Pikachu card that came with the DVD
It’s only 2019 and I already forgot about BREAK cards
xDivineStarx v2 I never really thought they were a good idea there my least favorite things they’ve ever done with Pokémon
@@MrcrispyYT They're just sideways Level X
One of my most prized cards was a marowak break because I thought it was cool
I think they should've stopped at mega ex rather than have a fucking evolved starter "f" card be better than mega rayquaza ex. Its stupid
I meant "v" card
You got the goods?
“Yeah, here.”
Bro I thought you said it was holo version!
“Well i dont think you realize how hard it is to get a poncho Pikachu card”

This nearly made me want to collect cards again ..

Do it!
This brings me memories of my old collection that i lost. Had everything in it, first card i got, favorites, totaled out to about $300+. It was a booklet and had a neat case around it to, was raquaza and unbound hoopa on one side and pikachu and bound hoopa on the other. Still pretty sad despite it being lost about 4 years ago
What Card Was It BASE SET CHARIZARD I'M GUESSING BECAUSE THAT CARD IS WORTH MORE THAN 300+
There were about 20-30 overall
I'm sorry for yours loss
There was a number of random EX-GX, Old 1995s, things like that
I got a requaza ex card
Mommy said to stay away from suspicious people who want to trade cards with me
I dont know why she said that this was honestley amazing
That’s the funniest thing in the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh man! Is that my childhood in your hands?? I... I want it back ༼ つ ಥ_ಥ ༽つ
if x and y cards were your childhood you shouldn't be on UA-cam buddy. Your parents should really not let you on the internet.

You wanna know his secret?
ER is the Nic Cage of ASMR.
Izzy
He just doesn't use precious time to read comments. Always working, our amazing ER.
David it is different though like a drug dealer like the candy man his combo lock video is creative the combo is the time of the video
TekaiGuy wait....has he portrayed Nic Cage? If not...he should. I'd rather watch him play nic cage...than watch nic cage play nic cage.
malice Why did you feel the need to be rude?
Me: Ay bro Imma keep my aerodactyl cuz I don't want blaziken
Rift: I'll take that card of yours and you can have this

Computer Face They might have variety but we have numbers...
Hey Rift, I remember "Steve" the potato of the nefarious organizations had a collection of cards, and "incidentally" he claimed he "lost" them after being captured, interrogated, tortured and imprisoned by the Tin Foil Hat Society... Hmm, now that I see you with "similar" cards, I wonder if there is a connection here...
*Just an idea for a future video;* knowing that you like games and a couple of your videos are based upon the lore of some of them, I would love to see a Dishonored ASMR video. You could make it "Sokolov paints your portrait" with painting sounds, brushes and, knowing he believes and seeks The Outsider, some whispering about it and the lore behind him.
Or "The Outsider pays you a visit" and he tells you about The Void and the ones he has marked across the years.
I remember Pokémon cards were banned at my school, but me and my friends would sneak them in and trade. This is exactly how it felt
This is what trading cards at the school lunch table felt like

Lies? It was obviously a joke he hasn't done everything.
The Life Of Yames now he needs to do a roblox rp and a shrek rp...
Oh yes can't wait for those.
Not until Shrek ASMR
with that criteria I could trade you a Squirtle for a Rayquaza, since both are basic pokemon :P

Why would anyone trade away primal kyogre? I'm not familiar with the card in terms of play, but I can only assume that it's rare.
Peter Ferrarotto I disagree, by the point were I got up to 25 mega cards ( my highest amount ) I had two, but could just be luck.
Zatanik YT huh. I remember I lost my old cards somehow, I had a holographic Manetric. It was really cool
Peter Ferrarotto my best two cards were mega rayquaza ( my favorite Pokemon) and mega charzard. Both 300 damage
Peter Ferrarotto because it was for a lucario!!! Duh! ;)
Megas? Who needs that crap. You know what was good? A two pieced legdnd card. Ill never forget when i got my second lugia piece.
Got that good stuff?
Yeah.

When he trades Delphox BREAK for Luxray BREAK
yo you trippin homie lmao you'll get like 3 heads in a row every 100 games, Delphox just sets up and stacks fire types too beautifully even on the bench to trade up
Tbh all breaks are quite shitty. If they couldnt use their previous attacks too they would be garbage. Almost all break attacks backfire you harder than they serve. For example:
Hydreigon break.
The attack does 150 dmg but you need to discard 3 energys (atk uses 1psyc 2dark & 1 normal energy). On top of that it does 50 dmg to 2 pokemons on YOUR bench.
@@astranox240
Well... What about Raticate Break/Ariados then? Golduck Break? Trevenant (I think thats his english name) Break? There are some really good one's out there.
i think the dealer would be a better name, you know, like how casinos have dealers who hand out cards
A J It makes it sound illegal tho.
A J I agree. It has a nice ring to it!

I still keep coming back to this video I love it
I’ve watched this so many times. When he first said greetings, I got goosebumps. That’s how I discovered this channel. :)
Why tf would someone trade a Kyogre for a Lucario. Like, Lucario is my favorite Pokémon but that's not even worth it.
And a Groudon for an Audino?! Oml
Ryan Sadauskis audino is stronger then groudon
*than
Depending on the training(if we talking digital games)it could be a fair trade.
because the Lucario was a good card for the format; t was played
You’re so damn creative Rift! Please never stop
My Mareanie for your Thundurus?
“That’s a fair trade.”
My Skarmory for your Diglett?
“That seems a little unfair.”
I would honestly like more of this one really helped the inner child of me and passed out 20 minutes into it
Damn this man is creative. He has to be the most creative asmr channel on UA-cam unless I'm missing somebody.

How it fells:
I kind of like how the the sensitivity of the microphone makes the sound of the cards sliding between one another sound like the ancient wood tile cards or something. It sounds fascinating actually.
