This set will be great if the Pokemon company decides to continue the 151 theme. Next year we get Pokemon 251. They have Celebi on the box, we get reprints of some of the Gen2 pokemon and alt arts. It would be great to have a box for each generation. Let me know if you agree.
Just heard about this set like a week ago, and it's going to be my first time getting back into Pokémon TCG since the original release. I'm definitely going to set out the goal of completing this set, and then I'll see if I want to expand and niche my collection from there. Your channel has been a lot of help in getting caught up on the nuances of the modern hobby.
Finally someone that is talking about the Venusaur evolution line! I LOVE those 3 cards and I feel like they are not talked about enough. In my opinion those are really the standout cards of a great set.
In a booster bundle I pulled a Zard ex, Venusaur full art non alt, your Psyduck full art, and the Zapdos alt 😍 booster bundles are pretty much the only way I go now. Good video as always!
I just started collecting and playing the game pretty seriously so I'm pretty new but having a ton of fun with this set!! He mentioned a harder pull rate - does that usually mean cards would tend to stay a bit more expensive?
So excited for the Alakazam alt art. I PC Alakazam and glad he finally gets an alt art and it’s such a great fun art compared to his other intimidating ones. Can’t wait to get it but will wait til prices go down for sure lol.
You're the same as me when it comes to liking the illustration rares. I also love the ones with lot of details that's why Alakazam and Venusaur are my favorites, In general I'm not a fan of the full art cards in this set. They somehow seem flat and a bit boring to me.
I love that Erika's Invitation is such a popular card. Something about her representation just feels like a foundational concept for the Pokemon series. Erika is very much a lady, she's surrounded by ladies, she dresses in a kimono, and she's shown raising rare plants in a greenhouse. This is something that people do in the real world-- especially for flower arrangement (ikebana), also associated with ladies, and with tea ceremony, where ikebana are displayed. It's like Game Freak's employees knew someone like this in real life and they were the inspiration for Erika, and also for the idea that there are Pokemon for people to raise and befriend everywhere and in all walks of life. This card just seems like a portal between the real world and the Pokemon world and I'd be surprised if there weren't an interesting backstory to it!
I am 100 percent going to buy this set to open. I am going to wait because it think rushing into buying it makes no sense. I see it selling out and getting a restock numerous times so I should be fine. Gonna try and get the entire collection of 151.
@@oldmanjake6541 damn, im only like 30-40 packs in and already got the charizard/charmeleon art rare, Both versions of Erika's, the pikachu art rare, the wartortle art rare, and 2 Tangela art rares. My roommate also pulled the charizard and pikachu arts. To me the set has great pull rates.
I've never got Pokémon (or and) cards. I was a kid when they first came out and loved the gameboy games but didn't bother with the cards cos was too poor to be buying cards 😂. But my mate who has always collected cards (all kinds) showed me this set and i had to get it. I got the binder set and 2 etb boxes, got some cool cards but from this list ive only got is the Zapdos Ex one. But my friends FRIEND got the illustrated bulb/ivy and venisaur in one pack.
Opened 63 packs and got plenty of hits. I think there’s just batching, so you could just as easily strike out. It should balance out in the end. I got two full art Erika’s, 1 SIR Erika, 1 SIR Giovanni, 1 Gold Mew, 4 IRs, 1 Full Art ex, 6 regular ex
my chase card is blastoise illustration because I drown before.. but still I like inside water not as much in deep pool.. but still I learn swimming after the drowning..
So my target had the ETBs a day early. Picked one up and got 1 SAR, 1 AR, 1 Full Art, 1 Gold, and 2 energy foils, the snorlax promo and my SAR was the charizard!! :) So idk if I got really lucky opening my first packs but that's what I got. Good luck and I will bless you all with my pack luck!
excited for this set first set since evolving skies that im planning on buying several products of and actually collect every set since evolving skies i have just bought an etb of and not much else but this set looks too good to not open packs of and collect
I pulled the Alakazam EX on my second pack, while I was watching you talking about it.❤ You said worth $70 ish, but too me priceless ❤ BANGER 🔥🔥💯 But, the whole bundle of six packs were great.. I like this set , way more than Obsidian. Too me, Obsidian is cheesey... 151 is %100 better.❤❤
See the thing is a harder pull rate benefits collectors. Easy pulls rates means the card prices are gonna be so low to the point where if you pull some of these hype cards its not as exciting because so many others have pulled it.

Ya try buying pokemon cards in 3rd world country 20 dollars card turns in to 100 dollars with tax and shipping not to mention if you get scammed your 😂 stuck with the fake

Amazing idea
zaptos ex alt art is my chase card from this set, i love the bird trio so much.
Same here. Legends ❄️⚡️🔥
Just pulled it on my first pack :)
I stopped collecting after the first 151 set back in the 90s. They managed to pull me back with this set.
Same!
Same man ! Just started again 😅
My friend went to Japan and brought me two packs of 151. I pulled Giovanni’s Ambition secret rare! Not bad for two packs.

Dude same! You should also look into the Halloween Pokémon card packs. Easy to collect a set.
I'm so happy that's not only me... This set really got me back collecting
Finally someone that is talking about the Venusaur evolution line! I LOVE those 3 cards and I feel like they are not talked about enough. In my opinion those are really the standout cards of a great set.
There are 2 other gold cards in the set, I believe they are switch and psychic energy.
Yep I got th
The energy
I have gold mew and two gold switch cards
@@killachris__3087 I also have 2 gold switch cards, so does my roommate. Seems to be a very common card.
I also have one😅
In a booster bundle I pulled a Zard ex, Venusaur full art non alt, your Psyduck full art, and the Zapdos alt 😍 booster bundles are pretty much the only way I go now. Good video as always!
I really like the look of the full art Arbok!
I just started collecting and playing the game pretty seriously so I'm pretty new but having a ton of fun with this set!!
He mentioned a harder pull rate - does that usually mean cards would tend to stay a bit more expensive?
Pulled it on my first pack :)
Yes, won't drop as much, and in time will move up in price faster
Hey jake what do you think of the 400 dollar collection of another base set reprint?
Dragonaire is my all time favorite, followed very closely by the squirtle!
I get so hyped when i see this channel drop new vids.
So excited for the Alakazam alt art. I PC Alakazam and glad he finally gets an alt art and it’s such a great fun art compared to his other intimidating ones. Can’t wait to get it but will wait til prices go down for sure lol.
Bought an elite trainer box, first pokemon cards I'd bought myself since 1999. Pulled the Charizard IR in my very first pack!
My favorite is the Poliwhirl Illustration rare. Lifes been tough and haven't been able to get any products yet.
Opened 22 packs last night and got a god pack of the Blastoise line. Pretty cool experience, but otherwise my pulls were trash.
bought one booster pack at the gas station and pulled the charizard ex 223 haha first pack in months!
can I just say
ABOUT TIME!!!! I love Kanto more than any other region and its about time they do this.
You're the same as me when it comes to liking the illustration rares. I also love the ones with lot of details that's why Alakazam and Venusaur are my favorites,
In general I'm not a fan of the full art cards in this set. They somehow seem flat and a bit boring to me.
I pulled the Charizard ex alt art from a booster bundle as you were talking about it! So cool!
There are 2 other gold cards in the set. Switch and psychic energy
no golduck thought right?

I feel the same way. I’m hoping around November they drop to about 30 bucks
There are all 3 birds on the Zapdos card though. I like this card very much.
so upset, i packed the charizard alt full art but forgot my back at the station. came back 30 minutes later and it was gone 😭
Loving this set. Pulled the zapdos and I'm going to be picking up the starter evolutions next week
Pulled Zapdos EX SAR and 2 Psyducks AR’s from 1 ETB
I agree with your list. I think prices will crash hard for singles in 2-4 weeks. Best not to FOMO. 👍🙂. My chase is the Zapdos. 😊
Idk pull rates seem to be rough
@@a.ovation2086 You might be right. 🙂 I opened 40 packs…zero SIR. IR and SIR cards does feel tougher to pull… 🧐
@@oldmanjake6541 damn, im only like 30-40 packs in and already got the charizard/charmeleon art rare, Both versions of Erika's, the pikachu art rare, the wartortle art rare, and 2 Tangela art rares. My roommate also pulled the charizard and pikachu arts. To me the set has great pull rates.
@@roostre5254 wow! Nice! I got none of your cards. 😂
I think the Mew alt art will be my prize card. I know it’s a promo… it’s just such a great card!!!
Let's go Jaaaaaaake 💪🏽 always love your videos man!!
I packed the Zard from my first ever booster bundle pack. I don’t know what to do now
MY FRIEND GAVE ME THAT ZAPDOS FOR FREE TODAY FR FR
I've never got Pokémon (or and) cards. I was a kid when they first came out and loved the gameboy games but didn't bother with the cards cos was too poor to be buying cards 😂. But my mate who has always collected cards (all kinds) showed me this set and i had to get it. I got the binder set and 2 etb boxes, got some cool cards but from this list ive only got is the Zapdos Ex one. But my friends FRIEND got the illustrated bulb/ivy and venisaur in one pack.
Pull rates suck for scarlet and violet 151 I've spent 100$ I pulled Charizard ex hyper rare. Igold psychic energy wiggly ex
My lady found a poster collection a couple days early and I pulled the zapdos! I've only opened that product so far, but it's been so fun
So far the promo cards are the ones with the hits 👌
Erika is once again a desirable card but going have to wait till it drops to double digits before i snag one
Opened 63 packs and got plenty of hits. I think there’s just batching, so you could just as easily strike out. It should balance out in the end. I got two full art Erika’s, 1 SIR Erika, 1 SIR Giovanni, 1 Gold Mew, 4 IRs, 1 Full Art ex, 6 regular ex
Wow! Nice! I opened 40 packs and got zero SIR. 🥲
my chase card is blastoise illustration because I drown before.. but still I like inside water not as much in deep pool.. but still I learn swimming after the drowning..
You are trippin on the Blastoise art. I think its one of the best stoises we've recieved!
Is the mewtwo full art only in Japan
Today my son pulled the Pikachu the Charizard and the Blastoise ex from the 151 premium it's a great set
After opening up a booster box I usually keep like 5-10 cards an throw out about 350ish cards seems like a waste an Pokémon knows it
I think if they turned that charizard FA ex into a shiny card in a future set it would go so crazy and be better than the hidden fates shiny Zard
Got a bundle and etb and pulled the Zapdos EX IR and gold mew card!
Is there anywhere legit we can get the 151 sleeves that come with the ETB but on their own
the collector box retails 180$ here? is it worth it?
Where is the link to see all the cards?❤❤
So my target had the ETBs a day early. Picked one up and got 1 SAR, 1 AR, 1 Full Art, 1 Gold, and 2 energy foils, the snorlax promo and my SAR was the charizard!! :) So idk if I got really lucky opening my first packs but that's what I got. Good luck and I will bless you all with my pack luck!
That’s a very solid ETB! 🙂👍
my roommate opened a binder collection and got a pull on all 4 packs, including a Charizard art rare.
What about Pikachu illustration rare? It's showing $100 on TCG player
Pulled the charizard ir and zapdos ir from my 1st 151 booster bundle
Awesome! Thank you for always providing info on sets. I'm super excited!
The Giovanni card is called Giovanni's Charisma am I right?
What about the Mew Ex SAR? I pulled it in Japanese and you left it off the list. It’s going for 140
Mew ex isn’t a part of English 151. Both Mew and mewtwo will be a part of the 151 UPC.
@@Turrent hmmm, do you think that makes the Japanese mew more valuable or will it tank because it’s a English promo?
@@DramaShogunnah
@@DramaShogun that mew ex jp will be a way better investment long term than the English. The English will be overprinted in comparison to the jp.
@@Turrent appreciate it! I will hold strong
I hope they keep printing these cards. I don't plan to open any packs. I am going to buy the whole set.
Zapdos Illustration rare is my favorite art over the past year!
Same her. Legends ❄️⚡️🔥
I have the charizard and venusaur but there getting graded right now
excited for this set first set since evolving skies that im planning on buying several products of and actually collect every set since evolving skies i have just bought an etb of and not much else but this set looks too good to not open packs of and collect
New sub. I like how you are straight to the point
Tysm Sir For The Crazy Information ❤️
I have the pikachu and 2 charizard ex and 2 different blastoise
Shipping is crazy from buyee! 😅
Can’t wait to rip, just got my Pokémon center delivery!
Alakazam Art is goated
Pokemon nerfed the pull rate to drive fomo dirty
It’s better this way… I prefer demand over the alternative of no one wanting the set, cards have zero value and clearance self in a year
When do you think would be a good time to scoop up some Japanese 151? I’d like to complete a Japanese Masterball set and an English set
I pulled the Alakazam EX on my second pack, while I was watching you talking about it.❤ You said worth $70 ish, but too me priceless ❤ BANGER 🔥🔥💯
But, the whole bundle of six packs were great..
I like this set , way more than Obsidian. Too me, Obsidian is cheesey... 151 is %100 better.❤❤
I bought my first packs today and I very first one I opened I pulled Charizard ex
I pulled the Blastoise sar!
See the thing is a harder pull rate benefits collectors. Easy pulls rates means the card prices are gonna be so low to the point where if you pull some of these hype cards its not as exciting because so many others have pulled it.
It’s the psyduck for me😌
Amazing videos 🎉🎉❤😊
Just to point out for anyone looking its Giovannis Charisma
Top 10 short printed cards
My wallet has thanked me for the last year or so. Time to happily break the streak. Thanks for the content as always, Jake!
Oh man these prices TANKED
Pikachu collection update pls
the set has 3 gold cards
What up gang
I stand by my statement that the blastoise in this set is way too underwhelming!
Yes sir
I must be the only one that could care less about this set. It has nice artwork but doesn't seem any better than average. Maybe its just the hype that's causing burnout but you all can have my share.
Wortortle, squirtle, love the art, blastoise meh
No FOMO. This set will be printed to oblivion!
i want the poliwhirl
I pulled Zapdos and the normal Erika out of one pack!
Mew love it 😊
There’s not a lot of cards in this set…
Grabbing as many Erika’s Inv at $50 as I can
Mewtu best card
Waifu cards for the win!
Ya try buying pokemon cards in 3rd world country 20 dollars card turns in to 100 dollars with tax and shipping not to mention if you get scammed your 😂 stuck with the fake
this didn’t age well…
