I'll have to look into buying it, then, since I'll be needing Fairy energy when the XY set comes out.

TPCi has disappointed me by making that Victini EX an exact reprint of the Plasma Storm one right down to the art. :(

Been fairly lucky with boosters lately. Just some highlights from the most recent few packs:

Boundaries Crossed:
Landorus EX

Plasma Freeze:
Electrode holo

HGSS Triumphant:
Darkrai Cresslia Legend (bottom half)

Legendary Treasures:
Meloetta EX
Zapdos reverse

Holy crap, I've seen so many people pull either one or both of Meloetta EX from their booster boxes that it's crazy! I swear, if I buy a booster box and there's no Meloetta EX in it...

Picked up a Sylveon Collection Box at Walmart:

Dragons Exalted:
Rare: Magmortar
Reverse Holo: Aggron (rare)

Next Destinies:
Rare: Zebstrika
Reverse Holo: Lapris (uncommon)

Legendary Treasures (a):
Rare: Reuniclus
Holo: Zekrom
Radiant Collection: Servine, Gardevoir

Legendary Treasures (b):
Rare: Empoleon
Holo: Tympole (reverse, common)
Radiant Collection: Eevee, Audino

Nothing exciting pulled, but still glad I picked it up.

Nothing super interesting but I got a pack of Plasma Storm. Nothing extremely good in this pull but my favorite is this Team Plasma Snorlax. I love the background and layout of the Team Plasma cards.



Which turns out to be rare and the best one from the pack. A good amount of uncommon ones such as that Lombre and the Solrock and a reverse foil Eviolite (uncommon)

Then got another Plasma Storm pack some time after. The best card being a Reverse Foil Golbat (uncommon) , a uncommon Glavantula, a rare Dodrio, and a uncommon Magneton.

Yesterday I happened to find a pack of Next Destinies cards near a Target opened already and so I decided to pick it up. Not the best pulls, but I did get this awesome Beartic which is rare. Plus a reverse foil Elgyem (only common though).

Scans of the cards I got:


I already got a copy of the Ralts and Mienfoo from a Next Destinies pack I got a while back sometime last year.

If you ever decide to play, that Eviolite could be pretty handy to have.

I was thinking of playing again. I used to , but a good majority of my cards are outdated and I don't have enough new cards to form a deck yet. But I'm definitely gonna start collecting them again. I find it exciting to get a card I like the artwork for or a rare holographic card.

Confession: I don't play a whole lot anymore. Too expensive to drive to the nearest league every week.

Oh cool thanks for the link. I was already considering at least trying TCGO (knew about it for a while) . I have a decent amount of codes both from booster packs and the GottaCatchEmAll.com thing Pokemon's English site did a month before X and Y came out. So I may already have enough codes to make a good online deck at least. :)

I got a pretty shiny gold rare candy in a plasma pack I think on the TCGO. Ive heard its a secret rare card but I dont know XD.

I opened up my Legendary Treasures booster a few days ago - and I got the #1 card I was hoping for [Purrloin from the Radiant Collection], got it twice! That made me smile big.

To my surprise, I also got the gold Reshiram card! I wasn't expecting that (Reshiram is my favorite legendary as well).

yes it is a secret rare card.

i picked up a froakie pin blister pack and pulled 2 exs. Unfortunately it was Cresellia and Zapdos ex...

Even if you have them you could always sell them xD

Woah and it looks like they're both holos too (Are they only available in holo?) ! And that gold Reshiram is awesome! Congrats!! You're rather lucky to get all of that in one booster pack.


I decided to redeem the codes for the packs I got recently. The best card I got were a Holo Moltres, Holo Articuno ,and a reverse holo Gardevoir (all rare).


Speaking of Gardevoir, but I actually a Rare Holo Gardevoir in a Next Destines pack not too long ago. The same one I get today in TGCO.

It's so hard to tell what's holo on the online version. And the new holos on the real game aren't as shiny as the older ones it seems. (Well except the reverse holos.)

Decided to buy 4 Legendary Treasure Packs today! (I haven't bought pokemon cards in 8 years)

Following up my massive last post with a booster for Plasma Freeze I found lying in my room unopened:

Noteworthy cards and rares were Frozen City, Nidoqueen, and a reverse foil Raticate.

Why that is a nice haul (Talking about the last post that you made) There. Well look what i got my favorite secret rare card!

I pulled the bottom half of Darkrai/Cresselia Legend a few months ago. For an early Christmas present, my boyfriend sent me a gift which just so happened to be the top half of the card. Very happy. :) He's a keeper, ain't he?
