Booster Pack/"Look What I Just Got!" Thread

Status
Not open for further replies.
Just bought some B&W boosters (and one HGSS it turns out) - 4 B&W and 1 HGSS (and a deck, but what you get in the decks in set, so :P).

I don't know what's 'rare' or whatever (just recently getting back into this), but these are the holographic ones:

Shiny Copycat and Pokemon Catcher
Beartic with shiny behind him
Rayquaza with shiny pink bit
Braviary
Throh
Excadrill

Any of those interesting?
 
Seems like you got more than just boosters for the base B&W set. You must've gotten an Emerging Powers one as well since you have Beartic and Pokemon Catcher, both of which are pretty interesting cards.

And you must've gotten a Call of Legends booster (which, technically, isn't a part of the HGSS series, just a filler set), since you have a Rayquaza there. Does the Rayquaza have a silver card border or a yellow one?

Woops, yes, Emerging Powers and Call of Legends (my mistake). It has a yellow border.

Nice Black and white box, I got a full holo Zekrom and Reshiram when I bought mine a while back. How many Professor Junipers did you get from that box and any rev holo trainers ?

I only recieved one professor Juniper. Rev. trainers: potion, switch, energy retrieval, and plus power. I was hoping for at least one Samurott but No Bueno. I now have at least 6 Darmanitans lol. I am kind of surprised because I was expecting a more spread of pokemon but I recieved a ton of the same ones including like 12 timburr and 8 swoobat. I purchased these packs off ebay for $41.00 and they were actually the single packs. I am not sure if they are one of the first packs to come out because they did not include the PokemonTCG code card.
 
The original Black & White boosters didn't come with a code. Only Emerging Powers and Noble Victories boosters come with codes, and you have to buy a booster box of B&W to get a booster code from that set. Every theme deck since Black & White came out does have a code, though.

And certain cards are more common in certain areas than others because of how they distribute packs.
 
Just got a Samurott Tin today and got nothing noteworthy except for a few holo cards. The tin and figurine that comes with it is very nice though.

Yeah, if you're not careful they can poke your eye out!

Says the man who's got 8 of them stuffed away in a ziplock bag in a drawer just waiting to prick my fingers when I dig through the drawer.
 
Got three boosters today, two Emerging Powers and a Noble Victories. I got a holo Darumaka and a Darmanitan, a Hydreigon with shiny lines behind it, a holo Sewaddle, a Beartic, and Swanna, and an Xtransceiver. Any of those interesting?
 
Bought a Seperior tin today and pulled yet another full art zekrom along with a nice leafeon.

Got several packs over the last few days myself. Got an Eviolite finally. And a full art Thundurus.

I actually have two full art thundurus and a regular thundurous, surprised I pulled them! I traded someone a catcher for a hydreigon this past wednesday and I want their other one. I have three full art zekrom, what would be a good trade for one of them?

Look up the monetary value of one and see if any cards you want are a similar price.
 
The past weeks I bought a few packs, these are a few of what I got;

BW:EP Reverse Holo Krookodile
BW:EP Holo Krookodile -comes standard with the theme deck-
BW:EP Reverse Holo Ferrothorn
BW:EP Holo Terrakion
BW:NV Reverse Holo Golurk
BW:NV Leavanny
Lilligant of both versions.

Are any of these very interesting regarding worth or are they good to use for TCG, maybe particularly against other cards?

Oh and a question, when can you say your collections is officially complete? When you have all the -first edition- sets? Or do you need every holo and reverse holo edition as well? Or is that up to yourself?
 
Bought another serperior tin the other day and pulled nothing special, trying to complete the the ZPST deck.

-Umbreon COL (HOLO)
-Grumpig Triumphant (Reverse)
-Gothitelle EP
-Verizion EP (HOLO)
-Electrive Triumphant
-Sawk BW (Rare)
-PONT, Twins, & Cheren

All and all not really good pull.

The Card store I buy from did not have any Emboar tins which kind of shocked me. Target on the other hand had five lol. Target obviously being more expensive so I passed.
 
Hi all; Is buying 36 booster packs of the base set worthwhile for AU $395 (free postage). generally it looks as though i am saving 3-5 dollars a pack from other sellers who are asking 13-15 dollars a pack including postage to Australia.
