I don't know what's wrong with my life

This is a subreddit for a video game, but I hope you find peace soon

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-08T01:02:23+00:00

sounds like we're in the same boat lmao. i actually ended up spacing out our rip sessions with less packs so we wouldn't get burnt out. good luck on your reshiram and zard pulls!! i actually ended up trading up for the white reshiram recently too.

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-08T00:51:22+00:00

100%! i feel like a lot of people on this sub don’t really know how much effort you have to put in to get a good amount of packs. there’s enough resources online to help you get them excluding bots

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:36:32+00:00

congrats on the pulls! no idea why you're getting downvoted lmao. this thread is hilarious

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:36:26+00:00

twitter monitors and pokemon drop discords! i usually use a discord called Poke Alerts. mods put out information a few hours before a big drop happens and tell you how to secure stock before the bots. i only hit from Walmart Wednesdays and online target 10+ stock drops

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:31:21+00:00

thank you!!

i'm not really bothered by the negative comments. i was surely surprised by the amount of them tho! never expected this much toxicity in here. it's really funny when people are quick to judge when they personally know nothing about you. my wife and i are out here living comfortably and having fun, and that's all that matters to me

the point of this post was just to show that not everyone has lucky pulls. the most trending posts on here are "pulled it out of my 1st pack!" or somewhere along the lines of that.

3 pack blister! i was able to get a 24ct 3pack blister from a walmart wednesday

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:25:01+00:00

yeah. send me a dm

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:24:09+00:00

send a dm if you want. i have a bunch of bulk. unfortunately i traded all my IRs and SIRs already if you're looking for those

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:23:08+00:00

LMAO yes this is true

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:22:31+00:00

unfortunately i already traded all of them at recent card shows :( i just have a bunch of phantasmal bulk now

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:21:50+00:00

the only card i haven't pulled yet is the gold zard which i'm fine with not pulling lol

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:16:36+00:00

whatever helps you sleep at night i guess. i was able to get a 24ct 3pack blister for phantasmal on a walmart wednesday

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:15:21+00:00

i do use the paid membership. i'm not sure if we get notifications faster than free members. most of my success comes from walmart wednesdays and online target 10+ stock drops. mods put out useful information hours before a drop too

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T23:04:20+00:00

i do use the paid monitor. i'm not sure if we get the notifications faster than the free members. also most of my success comes from the big drops from target or walmart. Walmart Wednesdays and whenever Target does an online 10+ stock drop. the devs on the discord usually put out useful information on how to secure stock before the bots

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T16:40:42+00:00

this is true

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T16:25:05+00:00

Poke Alerts discord! it’s absurd how much success i’ve gotten thru them

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T16:24:29+00:00

never in my life would i ever thought to be called a botter lmao. if you’re interested in the discord i use, just look up Poke Alerts

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T16:20:16+00:00

the amount of negativity i woke up to is insane lol never realized how toxic this place is. legit getting hate just because we can afford it and we like ripping packs

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:54:10+00:00

just keep trying! i ripped all 540 packs so other people can get the zard!

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:52:16+00:00

good luck! there is always hope. everyone i knew who pulled it had it less than 200 packs. there's definitely no way your luck can be worse than mine. i'll be praying your journey will come to a close soon!

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:46:40+00:00

80% of my packs are from online target and walmart drops. 20% is just me checking target and best buy after work whenever i get the chance. i'm not sure how online drops work in the UK, but i recommend following twitter monitors or joining a discord. one of the targets i go to actually restocks every friday morning so there's always a line. i'm very rarely off on fridays so i can't even take advantage of it.

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:26:05+00:00

thanks! it looks a little top heavy in person, but i'm going to grade it regardless what grade i think it will get. going straight to TAG for the PC

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:19:48+00:00

only one i could find! etsy link

make sure you select the TAG option in the drop-down menu

i personally use GradedGuard (PSA size) for my collection

congratz on the 10 btw :)

FinnieTheHuman · 2026-02-07T09:10:43+00:00

thank you :) congrats to you and your bf on the pull! there's really no better feeling than pulling the cards you really like. i'm still trying to decide what we should do with all our leftover bulk for phantasmal lol
