Max, I honestly don't think we care which set, how old it is, even if it's the newest set. We aren't going to watch anyone else open the cards so we're excited to watch regardless. We are patient sheep, but we're loyal.
Honestly Max's card openings just hit different. Can't watch anyone else do them after watching Max, when the card goblin shows up I'mma watch him and that's all there is to it.
i don’t even collect anymore these videos just bring me so much comfort ya know? been watching max for like 10 years or something like that, feel like i know the guy lmao
Max I’ve been watching you for over 10 years now, started watching your prank calls when I was 13 now I’m 23, thank you for all the years of entertainment and juicy times
The electric frog's eyes are the little dots. The big eyes on the side are actually some horrible intimidation display or they discharge the electric attacks.
Yeah, the shape is partly inspired by cane toads who have poison sacks behind their eyes. Cane toads are also a horrible invasive species in Max’s home country of Australia.
The 4 not box legendaries are called the treasures of ruin. You have Chien-Pao, the one on the snow hazzard packs. Ting-Lu on the clay burst Wo-Chien is the leaves snail, The one you said was camouflage And Chi-Yu is the fire fish. They're all basically artifacts that control a type to form it's body. The swords for Chien-Pao, the Bowl antlers for Ting-Lu, the wooden spiral tablets on the shell of Wo-Chien, and the eyes of Chi-Yu are Jade beads
Also Max, the doors where Wo-Chien (grass snail) and Ting-Lu (ground moose) are sealed away are visible in the background of Pineco and Primeape's artworks. I imagine the same goes for Chien-Pao (snow cat) and Chi-Yu (fire/magma fish) in other artwork.
The Pokemon you got at 25:27 is Ceruledge, its pre evo is Charcadet and can evolve into 2 different Pokemon depending which game your playing, if u play Scarlet it evolves into Armarouge (the red and yellow one you saw in a previous video) and in Violet Charcadet evolves into Ceruledge the purple and blue one :)
To add to this, you can still evolve them in the opposite games. The item you need to evolve them are exclusive to each game, so you can still for example trade a pokemon holding the item to be able to evolve your own in the game! :D
Whenever the goblin uploads, I stop everything I am doing to watch him open up new shiny cardboard while screaming random Pokémon names in the middle of the night. Love you, Max! Never change!
The box art legendaries (saber tooth Chien-Pao and deer thing Ting-Lu) leaf snail thing (Wo-Chien), and fire fish (Chi-Yu) are from a special side quest and they are called "Shrine pokemon" Edit: the tumbleweed/thorn pokemon evolves using the "pokemon follow"feature. The frog guy on the snow hazard box art is the new pseudo legendary and is an ice/dragon type (there's a third evolution). Charcadet has two evolutions based on version exclusives. The seed and flower looking guys are called Glimmet and Glimmora and are found mainly towards the end game
Little mario mushroom line is Nacli > Naclstack > Garganacl. The names are a play on salt/NaCl and they're based on rock salt or the mineral form halite with the cubic crystals and all :]
Also would like to add that the super expensive card is so expensive because it's nearly a reprint of N, which is one of the best cards in the history of the game
Here to explain the lore Basically the 2 legendaries on the front of the packs are part of a set of 4 legendaries (the other 2 ones being the fire fish and the autumn leaves pokemon, that is a snail made of leaves) They are supposed to be cursed objects that possessed the environment, the sabertooth snow leopard is a cursed broken sword that made a body out of snow, the deer is a cursed vase or bowl that made a body out of clay, the fish are cursed beads that made a body out of fire, and the snail is a set of wood tablets that made a body out of leaves
The "cowardly frog" is Frigibax, and its line is loosely based on godzilla. The jump over the gorge is a special attack its line can learn where it flips forward and slides to attack. Which is a vague reference to a godzilla attack where he laid back on his tail and slid into a kick attack.
I actually bought 3 booster boxes trying to get the alternate Iona card but got the other alternate trainer instead (which I'm happy with too). I even got most of the art cards without any duplicates which was pretty surprising.
I ended up getting back into Pokémon Cards because of your return, and I even pulled two secrets! Thanks Max for the videos and the joy of seeing you pull cool cards
The fire fish is my favorite legendary lol. The lore is that the eyes themselves are possesed beads and made a body out of lava. Its so hot that everything around it melts to lava and it swims through that to get around lol.
The pokemon you said looked like a rock mario mushroom is Nacli, its a salt pokemon which is why its so cubed, as that is the crystalline structure of salt. You also pulled its evolution Nacalstack earlier in the video and it has a final evolution known as Garganacl. From what I know about the VGC Garganacl is actaully pretty good, mainly for the lines signiture move, Salt Cure, which is a 40 bp move that then does 1/8 of the targets max hp as damage as a DOT or 1/4 if its a steel or water type.
You know, maybe next week, you should open the new series of Smashers, Dino Island. You did the other series already, so you should do this. ( Also, it's very strange to have your last 3 series be about dinosaurs.)
Annihilape is one of the most hilarious pokemon they've made. Primeape became so angry that it died but came back to life as a ghost because he is too angry to just die and stay dead
ngl waifu effect was def part of why they were really expensive, but there was the other reason of the card being really good in the actual competitive scene. so you got some rare arts of a really popular female character that was also good when playing in battles, yea can be expected with card nerds who like waifus or whatever.
For the fire fish and the other three legendaries like it, I believe they are possessed items that gained the forms of animal spirits or something like that. That’s why the snow leopard has swords for teeth and the moose has a bowl on its head lol
Thank you Max for bringing attention to the devastating effects of Pokéblocks on the Slakoth community. All donations are welcome to help these poor guys who are trapped in a rough situation
@@jamesgraves9858 I mean objectively speaking, the games were over 6 months old when this video came out, and many of the Pokémon were revealed months beforehand. But they were brand new to Max and I found that entertaining to watch 🤷♀️
I HATE card unboxing videos but watching yours has the ability to make me feel less alone. I swear to God bro, Ilysm I wouldn’t watch anybody else do this but this is the only channel outside Cold Ones where you’re active so I appreciate every single upload. Fucking better than therapy
Maybe the reason why RUclips thinks the video IS made for kids is because they saw that extra quotation mark at the disclaimer and thought it was a typo and just set it as made for kids
I don’t think Pokémon’s gonna be popular for much longer tbh. Like you were saying in the video some of these Pokémon you can’t even tell what ur looking at and have no idea what they are. Soon it’s gonna be a chair Pokemon, a couch Pokémon, a dildo Pokémon
They're called the treasures of ruin. They're posseses artifacts that dont mean to be so massively destructive but they are so they were sealed in the 4 corners of the map with magic keys kinda. Just finding the keys undoes the seal though so not very strong magic lmao.
The fish is called Chi-Yu, its one of the ruin pokemon (the pack art) The little rings around its eyes are sacred gems! Commonly used in religious rituals and stuff like that ( people also hunt for that pokemon to steal the gems/beads I believe) It also flies around and floats..which is interesting because its a fish??? It can produce very very hot flames that can melt throught stone/sand to make lava for this cute fish to swim through!! Its one of my fav's so I thought I might as well let you know if you're interested :D
6 years later and the guy still has a stroke when trying his infamous "mega pack". You can sort of tell he wanted to take off all the rares and bundle the other cards together but failed within the first pack. Never change
so many beautiful goblin reactions in this one. the horror of brambleghast shroodle’s studio-ghibli looking old man ass Ting-Lu getting shafted Naclstack the apartment complex Farigiraf the GOAT Nearly guessing Tadbulb’s name And hysterically misjudging Veluza’s character. 111/10
the little frog and his evolution doing a back flip have a series of art rare cards that go in succession! prob why it looked out of place as u got the middle of the 3 :).
Bramblin is the scary tumbleweed pokémon. The eyes don't blink and instead flip and rotate to express Bramblin's emotions. The stalks are held together by what appears to be the remnants of roots on the underside of its body. Bramblin are created when wandering souls unable to move on get tangled and fused to dried grass.
i’ve been watching you for about 9 years already. i’m 22 and i used to collect pokémon cards and watch the series with my older brothers. watching you open the cards and getting excited, finding really cool cards made me want to start again so i’m starting to buy my own now and i already got a super cute binder to put them in. thank you for rekindling that joy that i felt with my brothers and giving me the motivation to start collecting again. 💓 love you. keep up the great videos please. ☺️ i really really really look forward to these.
Max, the dungbeetles name is dungbutthole. He collects his trainers excrement and rolls it into a ball for later consumption. After he consumes enough he evolves.
That is the most cursed Mofoe Mega-pack that I've ever witnessed or at least if my memory serves me right. 😂 But most definitely, it's still always a treat to watch Max opening packs or whatever random thibg his got gis goblin-hands into opening. Cheers, mate! Long may you reign!
The flamingo pokemon is one of the best speedrun pokemon in the latest game because of it’s high base stats and it can learn both close combat and brave bird
Dear Maximilion "Mother Fucker" Pocket Monsters, I am writing to you in regard to the resurgence of you screaming the name of the Pokemon "Noibat." I wanted to thank you for doing that, seeing as it makes me smile every time. I hope you continue to enjoy opening Pokemon card packs and you are blessed with good luck, and your videos are blessed by the algorithm. Kind regards, Patchwork Jimmy
Max, I honestly don't think we care which set, how old it is, even if it's the newest set. We aren't going to watch anyone else open the cards so we're excited to watch regardless. We are patient sheep, but we're loyal.
No lie was said here
Honestly Max's card openings just hit different. Can't watch anyone else do them after watching Max, when the card goblin shows up I'mma watch him and that's all there is to it.
I come to these videos for Max more than the cards.

Make love to me jeffwatch!
Max I’ve been watching you for over 10 years now, started watching your prank calls when I was 13 now I’m 23, thank you for all the years of entertainment and juicy times
I remember being in grade 6, my friend showed me a video of Max shovelling vegemite down his maw , im now a uni drop out and im still here
@@aliceloveschimpmumks1233 he is a massive legend
Damn bro been watching for 23 yaers i didn’t even know how
same exact thing with me except I was 11 and now 21, definitely shouldn't have been watching max at 11 tho lmao
Bro we’ve been here ten years!

I love how his reaction was like opposite most ppls when everyone else saw it
Discharge 🤤
I love that we're still getting new Pokemon reactions 7 months after release of the new games
Nobody even noticed patterrz
@@chocola6971Deserved👍
It’s funny he has to label these as “not for kids”
I hope I hear Jeff in this video
Me too
Me3
Yeff
his name is max
you heard Jeff
Max please upload a new collection room tour video! We don’t care if it’s a big mess of plastic just show us what’s been cooking behind the scenes ‼️
Lol literally just posted a comment asking the same thing, I hope he does one soon :)
Filth, filth is whats cookin
The 4 not box legendaries are called the treasures of ruin.
You have Chien-Pao, the one on the snow hazzard packs.
Ting-Lu on the clay burst
Wo-Chien is the leaves snail, The one you said was camouflage
And Chi-Yu is the fire fish.
They're all basically artifacts that control a type to form it's body. The swords for Chien-Pao, the Bowl antlers for Ting-Lu, the wooden spiral tablets on the shell of Wo-Chien, and the eyes of Chi-Yu are Jade beads
Also Max, the doors where Wo-Chien (grass snail) and Ting-Lu (ground moose) are sealed away are visible in the background of Pineco and Primeape's artworks. I imagine the same goes for Chien-Pao (snow cat) and Chi-Yu (fire/magma fish) in other artwork.
Sorry could you explain again? I was trying to sell a Waifu shiny card to the saddest men in the universe for a couple months of rent $$$
@@Konarcoffee fr, iuno isn't even the best girl in sv
@@reshiee69 Homegirl prolly smells like nickels
Also to add, the artifacts they originate from are from a distant region, which is why their names are so distinctly -not spanish- lol.
I really love watching Max figure out the pokemon as he goes. It's like watching a child sound out a word for the first time.
The Pokemon you got at 25:27 is Ceruledge, its pre evo is Charcadet and can evolve into 2 different Pokemon depending which game your playing, if u play Scarlet it evolves into Armarouge (the red and yellow one you saw in a previous video) and in Violet Charcadet evolves into Ceruledge the purple and blue one :)

Whenever the goblin uploads, I stop everything I am doing to watch him open up new shiny cardboard while screaming random Pokémon names in the middle of the night. Love you, Max! Never change!
So glad that the group of goblins rolling dice to dictate Max's upload schedule rolled a small number this time.

10:54 "that is what we're going for?"😂
Also would like to add that the super expensive card is so expensive because it's nearly a reprint of N, which is one of the best cards in the history of the game
Max's deduction of orthworm is spot on. I hope he looks into how they animated him into the game
Here to explain the lore

You were right about the big frog guy - his nostrils are actually his eyes and the eyeballs on the side are a disguise
I actually bought 3 booster boxes trying to get the alternate Iona card but got the other alternate trainer instead (which I'm happy with too). I even got most of the art cards without any duplicates which was pretty surprising.
5:52 the eyes are in the middle actually, he does have a silly little ditto face :)
I ended up getting back into Pokémon Cards because of your return, and I even pulled two secrets! Thanks Max for the videos and the joy of seeing you pull cool cards
12:30 I love how Gamefreak just couldn't be bothered and added a normal fucking flamingo and a stork while they we're at it
Max your posts always come when I need them the most 💕 keep doing what you're doing it's a joy to watch.
For real I hope he knows how many people he affects. His Japan vlogs got me through a really shitty breakup.
@@vigorousveloceraptor you mean halfway through, unless he finished uploading all the parts?
ahh yes a 40 minute massive legend special
The fucking wheeze before the heroin addict joke killed me 😂
The fire fish is my favorite legendary lol. The lore is that the eyes themselves are possesed beads and made a body out of lava. Its so hot that everything around it melts to lava and it swims through that to get around lol.
There were moments in this video that made me think Max was gonna blow the speakers out and break it 😭
That rollercoaster for Max figuring out Bellibolt was a frog was wild
This long streak of Max videos feels like a fever dream. I still can't believe it's real every time I see a video notification!
The pokemon you said looked like a rock mario mushroom is Nacli, its a salt pokemon which is why its so cubed, as that is the crystalline structure of salt.

The reaction to Girafarig's evo is great
For the fire fish and the other three legendaries like it, I believe they are possessed items that gained the forms of animal spirits or something like that. That’s why the snow leopard has swords for teeth and the moose has a bowl on its head lol
I love your Intro Max!! As well as your video edits! Awesome work! 💯🔥
Max: Wow that fish (Veluza) looks so polite!
Me: No, that fish is SO ANNOYING he won't leave you ALONE
Yeah, that particular waifu is insanely popular. I teach in Japan and lots of my students are *obsessed* with her.
Finally max remember that he has a Pokémon Chanel
Thank you Max for bringing attention to the devastating effects of Pokéblocks on the Slakoth community. All donations are welcome to help these poor guys who are trapped in a rough situation
5:45 It is a cute character! The fake eyes on the side are to make it more intimidating. It's real eyes are where it's nose holes would be.
40 minutes of Max opening Pokémon? Truly blessed 🙏
Love to see max doing Pokémon stuff again. Makes me nostalgia-trip back to when I was a kid and I just smile the whole way through.
It's so fun watching you react to the Scarlet/Violet Pokemon as if they were brand new lol
They are. A lot of people don't play the games. Been there, done that.
@@jamesgraves9858 I mean objectively speaking, the games were over 6 months old when this video came out, and many of the Pokémon were revealed months beforehand. But they were brand new to Max and I found that entertaining to watch 🤷♀️
I cant wait to see Max's reaction to Baxcalibur considering how much he liked lil' frigibax and arctibax
Finally, shiny card 😎
I love how close max gets to some of the lore despite not playing the games
😍 always a good day when max uploads
The little frog you were talking about on the snow hazard cards was named frigibax and it starts to look more like gojira the more you evolve it.
Man my kid lovee your video haha
I HATE card unboxing videos but watching yours has the ability to make me feel less alone. I swear to God bro, Ilysm I wouldn’t watch anybody else do this but this is the only channel outside Cold Ones where you’re active so I appreciate every single upload. Fucking better than therapy
👀👀👀 Definitely excited to see what you pull from those One Piece boxes
Max to Chi-yu: "it looks like its blown out of glass or something.."
The proud designer(s?) that made Chi-yu: *cries in artist*
Finally, e-girl card
Maybe the reason why RUclips thinks the video IS made for kids is because they saw that extra quotation mark at the disclaimer and thought it was a typo and just set it as made for kids
I don’t think Pokémon’s gonna be popular for much longer tbh. Like you were saying in the video some of these Pokémon you can’t even tell what ur looking at and have no idea what they are. Soon it’s gonna be a chair Pokemon, a couch Pokémon, a dildo Pokémon
It was pretty ambitious for the intro to be an exact adaptation of the prologue of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, Max.
They're called the treasures of ruin. They're posseses artifacts that dont mean to be so massively destructive but they are so they were sealed in the 4 corners of the map with magic keys kinda. Just finding the keys undoes the seal though so not very strong magic lmao.
One of the reasons Iono is so expensive is because it is one of the best supporters they've ever printed

so many beautiful goblin reactions in this one.
the horror of brambleghast

Naclstack the apartment complex
Farigiraf the GOAT
Nearly guessing Tadbulb’s name
And hysterically misjudging Veluza’s character.

Noivern ending the box is a classic mofoe unboxing
14:45 is killing me. Especially as someone with 4 years clean
that grass type that looked like it has seeds for eyes is called Bramblin! it’s based off of the tumbleweed!
I do find the huge art they do across the cards now very cool, it allows for so much more than when I was a kid
Funnily enough when you were talking about bellibolt having a ditto face it does! It’s nose holes are it’s eyes and the big eyes are fake
I could watch bro open up battle styles and get excited
the little frog and his evolution doing a back flip have a series of art rare cards that go in succession! prob why it looked out of place as u got the middle of the 3 :).
I'm glad that I dont have dementia, since Max also can't remember any of the recent pokemon.
I only keep up with Pokémon through maxs videos so it’s all new to me as well. So never feel bad about being late or anything max. Appreciate ya
So enjoyable seeing you having fun opening boosters instead of raging (even though new pokemons are quite like Van Goch drawings)
Bramblin is the scary tumbleweed pokémon. The eyes don't blink and instead flip and rotate to express Bramblin's emotions. The stalks are held together by what appears to be the remnants of roots on the underside of its body. Bramblin are created when wandering souls unable to move on get tangled and fused to dried grass.
How many years has it been since he destroyed the door and never replaced it?

Max, the dungbeetles name is dungbutthole. He collects his trainers excrement and rolls it into a ball for later consumption. After he consumes enough he evolves.
love that max fell for bellibolts defense mechanism
the monthly maxmoefoepokemon video lets gooo
funny part about the primeape evo, Annihalape, he is legit a Zombie primeape who is essentially ultra instinct Goku.
Thanks for playing the ds opening sound
That is the most cursed Mofoe Mega-pack that I've ever witnessed or at least if my memory serves me right. 😂
But most definitely, it's still always a treat to watch Max opening packs or whatever random thibg his got gis goblin-hands into opening.
Cheers, mate! Long may you reign!
The flamingo pokemon is one of the best speedrun pokemon in the latest game because of it’s high base stats and it can learn both close combat and brave bird
8:24 that my friend is a tumbleweed, he rolls around like one in the game lol. Pokemon running outta ideas lmao
I just want a set of Regis, Noibats, and dark gyarados pre release cards for Max to open
Pumpkin bones? They're tumbleweed, the windblown plants that you see in wild west movies
Yes ! I saw it The creature went that way 👀
18:31 - It's a tumbleweed max :)
5:41 no max u were right, the little dots are eyes and the big things are his ears (i think?)
Why is watching maxmofoe just as relaxing as watching steve1989 open mres if u know u know
the lore behind the flamingo pokemon is i actually bit my lip and now it hurts when i try to eat mayonnaise
Dear Maximilion "Mother Fucker" Pocket Monsters,

The legendaries in these sets are canonically mass murderers
i really think it shouldnt be understated how crazy iono's effect is crazy
