Hey! I finished my master set for 151 a couple weeks ago nothing feels better! Had to trade dupes for some of the big hits but opened way too many packs for it haha!
congrats that is awesome to hear! thats the smart way to do it too, trade when you get close enough, i really hoped to pull them all but will more than likely do the same... thankfully jynx is an easy one to buy, so no rush 😂
LOL i know, it’s so cheap! it’s more a badge of honor, to pull a master set yourself seems like an awesome story… but its definitely time to slow things down with 151, on to newer and different sets!
i need so many cards still yet i’ve already bought singles. It’s frustrating because i would have loved to pack them all myself, but it’s just so hard when there’s so many rare cards 😂. I did also decide to go for the master set (reverses and promos) so… that parts on me 😂
I do the same with the reverses/promos when mastering (although feel it’s more a personal preference)! I think another reason i think it’d be cool to pull them all is because its smaller set (comparatively, but i agree there are SO many secret rares!), it definitely is more on the impossible side to do that with a main set… I couldn’t imagine someone trying to pull all cards in something like Evolving Skies 😳
Was hoping to see the Jynx today, she just won’t let it happen man. 😢 On another note, hear what you’re saying about the ScarVi pokemon and trying to infuse mons from 2-5 into sets but I honestly enjoy the newer mons from playing through the game and am excited to keep seeing them in the TCG personally.
thanks and me too, such a strange card to be stuck on! thats really cool to hear that you dig the newer gen, i really just need to play the DLC and ill more than likely get that same feeling bc i do like the new ones from S/V main game!
Oh man I need that Mr mime and reverse holo dodrio! I’m down to 6 cards and ready to buy singles 😢 lol also need mewtwo reverse, charmander IR, wartortle IR, and venasaur ex. Hope that jinx finds you soon!
I don’t know why anyone would open any unopened Pokemon product, especially when it’s just so easy to buy the singles for the chase cards. I never open product unless my 6 year old bugs me enough
Well for me a lot of it is for content, lol, but it’s also fun (the same reason why the 6 year old wants to)! Yes, it’s easier to just purchase all the singles you want, but theres an awesome feeling you get from pulling your chase, or cracking packs with friends, and the stories that come from it. Now should anyone open all these packs for a Jynx FA… well absolutely not 😅
@@LessThanGosh that is true but my luck on pulling chase cards the last two years has been horrible. I couldn’t even pull a Charizard for the Obsidian Flames set. That shows my horrible luck. lol
Ahhhhhh, I want you to buy it but I want you to pull the jynx. Dilemma. Just get the odd Zapdos/Alakazam set or booster box. Pointless doing 30 odd packs mate
i know and feel exactly the same 😂, i think thats exactly what ill be doing, if in my travels i see an odd box here or there, ill get it and store it away and sometime down the line we'll revisit when the stash gets big enough!
SV era and games are 300% stronger than whatever mess SWSH was. SV base alone is better than 3/4 of Swsh sets. Don’t fool yourself. Also SV is pretty good at balancing old and new. There is a mix in e very set. Are you kidding me? It’s mostly 50/50. I don’t want these old pokemon over and over again . I saw them my entire life. Charizard for example isn’t even a good pokemon. It’s like the most basic you can be as a fan. 151 is such a money grab and nostalgia is fooling people into thinking the first generation was actually good when in reality it was just mid and pretty uninspired compared to the intricate design-origins Pokémon have today.
interesting takes, i agree with a few points. S/V the game is much better than SW/SH but to say S/V base is better than 75% of SW/SH TCG sets... you lost me there. I will say S/V base is the best base set in the modren era, the inclusion of IR/SIRs alone does that. You obviously don't care about nostalgia, which is fine, but it is a real thing and holds weight to many people. also, to compare games/designs that are 20 years apart doesnt seem fair to me, look at the technology difference! Finally, the whole hobby is a money grab, that's kind of the point, lol. Appreciate sharing the thoughts though, always welcome!

It hurts to see the struggle because the jynx is like $5-$6 too lol.

Do you have any Full Art Trainer's cards that you would like to sell or trade. I'm doing a binder for my grandson of all the Full Art Trainer's. 🙏
i dont think i have any extra from 151 but def do from other sets, if you want/need any of those i would be happy to help the grandsons binder!
Oh man I need that Mr mime and reverse holo dodrio! I’m down to 6 cards and ready to buy singles 😢 lol also need mewtwo reverse, charmander IR, wartortle IR, and venasaur ex. Hope that jinx finds you soon!
really appreciate that! honestly if you reach out to me via email, id be happy to give the mr mime and dodrio!
Oh wow I’d really appreciate that!
Hi! I realize I can’t find your email 😅
@@sammikkins ltgoshgaming@gmail.com (hope all is well!)
Hope you get something good! 😫
got some decent pulls but nothing crazy, but thats the way it goes sometimes!
It's funny cause the last card i needed to complete the set was the articuno, ended up buying it for 80p xD
Wow, thats another random last card, glad you were able to get it and complete the set, congrats!
Best fun

I'll trade you my jynx for one of your zards! :D
😁 as tempting as that is, i might have to send a counter offer your way soon! Thanks for confirming the card even exists though 😂
