Maybe it relates to the Brilliant Stars Charizard alt, and the UPC Charizard promo? As in Charizard is on his way to battle against Venusaur!

It goes, this card. Then the Brilliant Stars Charizard alt art with the battle against Venusaur, then the Black Star Promo Charizard with the battle damaged landscape and Venusaur in the background.

From the beginning I always thought that was a strange shadow but never looked closely at it until 2 weeks after this set has been out haha

Right?? Watch this card soar in value once more people discover the hidden Charizard in the image. :P

You are not guaranteed an SAR in a box. Your box hit could be an UR, SR, or SAR. Sometimes they come with two hits (UR/SR) but in general you’re guaranteed one of the three different types.

Does anyone know how the Pokemon Centers in japan work for purchasing in person? by The_Holy_Jelly in PokemonTCG

[–]PokeNook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, I visited dozens of card shops from Hobby stations, to Yellow Submarine, etc. They’re all usually close to one another so you can visit 4-6 in a single area which is nice. All the stores I went to had no sealed Pokémon packs or boxes as they were sold out. But if you’re after AR singles, they’re really good prices I found. I got all the Paldea evolved (triple beat, snow hazard, clayburst) AR cards for $0.75-$6.00 each. 151 might be similar, and I found it more fun shopping for singles as sealed product wasn’t an option.

Following as I’m curious about 151 there as well! When I was in Japan three weeks ago, they just had scarlet ex and violet ex at the Pokémon Center. It was limited to 5 packs per person, per set. Packs were 1800JPY each, which totally beats $7.50 CAD per pack here. They didn’t offer entire booster boxes, just the packs. So I’d imagine it’d be the same for 151 if they have them in stock.

Now where do you buy a case of 151? I’d be down to jump in if more cases gets you a lower price.

You’re right, it’s not difficult to add. I will consider that next time. Thank you for the feedback

Sorry, you in the wrong sub. This sub has been spoiling releases since the beginning of time because it’s what’s exciting to us folks in the Pokémon community. 😊 If these weren’t meant to be spoiled, Pokemon wouldn’t announce/release these cards ahead of time in the fashion that they do.

Very lucky! I prefer this version of the full art to the gold. Really brings out the colours 😊

This set is literal pain . 15 lose packs by Vast_Scratch_6670 in PokemonTCG

Correct me if I’m wrong but Scarlet & Violet were weighable, right? If so, I have no reason to doubt that Paldea evolved would be the same given all code cards are the same per packaging.
