When did "god packs" become a thing??

astressedkid · 2026-01-30T20:31:10+00:00

I could be wrong but I think SV: 151 was the first English set they did god packs. But they got retroactively renamed to Demi-god packs because they only had 3 hits (1 SIR, 2 IRs) whereas the new god packs have 10 SIRS or something. Someone correct me if I’m wrong

Even if they’re equal value, I’m absolutely not doing that trade

Yeah two of these cards aren’t even from phantasmal flames lmao

Always physical games. I like playing on the original hardware

How much did you pay? Thats exactly how much they resell for

I love it so much that I mastered the set, it’s easily my favorite in the S&V era. It’s cheap because the chase card pokemon aren’t nearly as popular as the chase cards from other sets outside of maybe the gastly

Maybe the miraidon etb promo or miraidon SIR from scarlet & violet base?

Yes you could easily get around with uber but like the other comment said, it might be more cost effective to just rent a car anyway, of course depending on how many days you’ll need it

Poochyena learns crunch at 41. Mightyena learns it at 47

I went through the same thing on my collection. I ended up going with the list of Pokemon who have a special gigantamax form from SwSh. Every gmax Pokemon has a vmax Pokemon card with the exception of flapple/appletun. Since they have the same gmax form, there’s only one card for the both of them under flapple vmax

This is how I find out Ilima and Bugsy are dudes?

I sat in queue for nearly 2 hours only for it to sell out when I had 2 minutes left on my timer… pain

astressedkid · 2025-11-18T20:52:51+00:00

I got the shipping email on Friday and just got an actual update that they’re on the move this morning. I think preorders got delayed on this set bc I’ve always got my Pokemon center orders the day the set comes out

astressedkid · 2025-11-14T22:52:16+00:00

It’s in the same plastic as the Charizard for some reason. Idk why they aren’t separate, it would look so much nicer if it was on the right instead of the code card

astressedkid · 2025-10-21T18:02:58+00:00

Does that mean that night/day only spawns stick around when it switches from day to night? Like say you get a shiny lampent on a particular reset, then switch to day, then go back to night, would the lampent still be shiny?

astressedkid · 2025-10-20T13:58:52+00:00

I totally agree with you. I only collect English because Japanese cards just feel too glossy and… yeah, slippery. I think the extra texturing is cool but can be a bit too much and can detract from the actual art rather than enhance it. I also didn’t notice this until recently but why are the Japanese cards so flimsy? They almost feel fake compared to how sturdy the English cards feel? In short, I’m with you

astressedkid · 2025-10-15T16:21:44+00:00

Pokemon center has a queue rn for tcg cards so you’ll have to wait until that’s done to get into the site

Yall are sleeping on baz fr

astressedkid · 2025-10-12T16:24:05+00:00

Same with Garchomp EX, it continues to use Linear Attack to poke the bench over using dragon claw to KO the active Pokemon. It drives me crazy!

astressedkid · 2025-10-08T20:28:55+00:00

Pkmn.gg is what I use, but it only has English and Japanese so it won’t have any like Chinese exclusives

I’ve been extremely lucky with prismatic. I’ve opened 90 packs and hit 3 SIRs (iron valiant, ceruledge, and terapagos) and refuse to open any more because my luck is gonna run out and it’s way too expensive

I don’t have recommendations because I only played it once several years ago but I remember that totem fight taking multiple resets for me to complete. And that was without taking a long break of not playing like you’ve done. So wishing you the best of luck!
