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

Status
Not open for further replies.
I opened some of the new products from Sun and Moon. I opened the Lunala Elite Trainer Box it had a Lurantis and an Incineroar Gx.


I also opened the Zygarde Pin box and got a Tauros Full art.

I also opened the other 4 promo card packs.

Not a huge fan of the new full arts to be honest. The blue border instead of gold around the Pokémon, the background is really boring, like just a solid pastel color, the holo foil overall just makes diagonal streaks it kind of overpowers the picture, the black line around the card is kind of ugly as well. That being said I do like the ridge pattern on the Pokémon themselves.


I also really like the full art supporters though, at least they kept those the same.
But with so many cards I doubt I'll bother to try and complete the set.

So, a week late, but here are my prerelease pulls:

From the Prerelease packs: Gigalith, reverse holo Decidueye, Incineroar, Big Malasada, Exp Share, Hau, Great Ball, Lillie, Repel, Ilima, Ultra Ball, reverse holo Lilie, Lillie, Nest Ball, Timer Ball, Nest Ball, Lanturn x2, and the Passimian prerelease promo.

Post prerelease (3 bonus packs for playing and 2 more for a top 4 finish):

Pack 1: reverse holo Rainbow Energy, Incineroar, Crushing Hammer
Pack 2: Lanturn, Lillie, Crushing Hammer
Pack 3: reverse holo Switch, Vikavolt, Ilima
Pack 4: Butterfree, Rare Candy
Pack 5: Parasect, Poison Barb

The league I played at also was giving out old league promos free to all participants, and I wound up with a Gym Badge with Lt. Surge on it. I also came away with a 4th Place Lucario for finishing 4th. Link related, it's a pic of the two promos: https://i.imgur.com/AfB608X.jpg?1
 
Today I opened 2 more of the Sun and Moon 3 pack blisters. As well as 5 single packs.


The first had Lapras Full Art and the second had Solgaleo Gx and Lurantis Full Art,
 
Opened the Evolutions pack that came from the code in the newsletter email from earlier this month.

The rare was Dugtrio, the reverse was Koffing, and the Trainers were Switch, Blastoise Spirit Link, and Energy Retrieval.

Opened a Mega Latios collection Box and pulled

Beautifly Holo rare 5/108 Roaring Skies
Heatran Holo rare 63/119 Phantom Forces

Nothing to impressive but I had to try for that shaymin out of the roaring skies packs

Still probably cheaper to buy several of those and hope for a Shaymin than to buy a single shaymin, haha.
 
My fiance bought me the Solgaleo Elite Trainer box as my Valentine's Day present! This is probably the best pulls I have ever had for any game.

Spoiler:
 
I'm relatively new (hadn't realised they thinned the borders)

I got a Solgaleo ETB.

Attached (hopefully) are some of the cards I though looked good. I was very happy with the foil Decidueye GXsince it came from my one Decidueye art work pack lol (and apparently it's sought after)

Opened a Magearna Mythical Collection Box. Didn't notice it until I opened it, but the Magearna promo was miscut, and the Shaymin promo slot was double stacked with a second Shaymin included, and then there was a Manaphy promo hidden behind the Fates Collide Booster.

Anyway, onto the packs in the box.

Breakthrough Pack: reverse holo Professor's Letter, Simipour, and Skyla.

Fates Collide Pack: Grumpig

Steam Siege Pack: Hydreigon

Evolutions Pack 1: Starmie, Charizard Spirit Link, Double Colorless Energy

Evolutions Pack 2: reverse holo Fire Energy, Ninetales, Professor Oak's Hint

A bit of a disappointing box overall.

Opened a Sol Galeo ETB and pulled a
secret rare Psychic energy and sol galeo GX

I didn't know this set had a secret rare Psychic Energy. That's just shot up to the top of my "MUST BUY" list now.

The Decidueye is pretty neat.

Rev holo DCE and rainbow energy

It has both a psychic and steel energy SR
 
My first Sun and Moon pack (as well as the first pack for getting back into the physical game) had this:

[PokeCommunity.com] Booster Pack/"Look What I Just Got!" Thread


Down at my local LGS I traded it for a Primarina GX and a Oranguru from the theme deck (non foil). Just before I was about to leave this kid asked if I traded for the Primarina GX and said that he really needed it. I said that I was planning to use it... that is until he made an offer I couldn't refuse:

Hoping to try and get some more Decidueye GX's with those and the other Solgaleo GX I pulled.
 
Today I opened the Solgaleo Etb and got a badlt cut Gold Psychic energy and a holo.

Then I opened a Litten 3 pack. Bought it because it was laying on the shelf and not hanging up with the others. It had the gold Ultra Ball...

I'm on an ipad so can't post a picture on here but it's on my Twitter.

I also opened the Lycanroc box about a week ago and it had a gold Gyarados.
