    Here you talk about cards you got in booster packs lately.

    Today I bought my first Team Magma vs. Team Aqua pack (yup you heard...errr read right, my first of this set). The first card in the pack was Meowth. My favorite Pokemon, with the new Ken Sugimori illustration that looks so cute. Also in the pack i got 2 Team Aqua Pokemon (Sealeo and Electrike), 1 Team Magma Pokemon (Aron), 2 Team Aqua Trainers (TM 01, and Aqua Belt which was reverse holo), Magma Energy, Psyduck, and Pikachu.
     
    I bought today an Hidden Legends pack and got:

    Exploud
    Reverse-Holo Oddish
    Vulpix (OMG! A Good Basic Pkmn!)
    Starmie
    Voltorb
    Ancient Technical Machine [Ice]
    Chinchou
    Tentacool
    Clamperl

    That Exploud have 4 Attacks <.<
     
    I haven't bought Pok?mon cards in quite a while. The last cards I bought were in June, which were three Hidden Legends booster packs. I got Shiftry (holo), Sunny Castform, and Bannette (holo) in order for the rares. I did get a promo Jirachi from the Jirachi movie DVD last month too.
     
    rea:hey

    What's up all? Has anybody been getting new packs of pokemon cards lately? Ik now this cool store online where you can buy pokemon cards. I had brought a Ex series value packin. In the value pack you get 3 diff.s packs of card. You'll get a dragon pack,Ex ruby&sapphire pack and a Ex sandstorm pack and you'll also get about 1 or 2 rares in each of the packs plus you will get a single rare card.
     
    I have just started playing the card game again, the last packs i got were from Neo Discovery. But i have recently been buying a lot from the new sets and have been surprised about all of packs that i have gotten. I expecially like the Sandstorm set. My last few pack I got was a Blaziken 110 HP Reverse Foil, an Electabuzz Ex, and a 100 HP Swampert. i also got a energy removal 2 and some other uncommons and commons.
     
    EX: Magma Vs. Aqua (that's what I think I call it) booster, from recently:
    Aqua's Chinchou - Not very good.
    Aqua's Spheal - Not very powerful, but the picture is funny.
    Magma's Rhyhorn - Um, not good.
    Aqua's Corpfish - What is this supposed to be?! Low HP and one attack that does no damage, just poisons.
    Magma's Baltoy - Not too good, not too bad, but below the middle.
    Magma's Aggron (Holo) - Wow! This card is fantastic! I just have to keep it away from Grass and Water types!
    Aqua's Mightyena - Good against Ex-Pokemon (uh, what?)! But not very.
    Trainer - Aqua's Hideout - I am not using this one when the Aggron is in play. No way.
    Aqua's Cacnea - I don't like this one. It might not do any damage!

    The Magma and Aqua pictures are really nice, don't You think?
    I wonder what type of booster I will get next. Legendary Collection? I hope not!
     
    Wow i just got the some boosters for the new Fire Red and Leaf Green and along with it my first EX of the set. A CHARIZARD EX!!! An awesome card, especially with my fire starter Blazikens ahahahahahaha.
     
    I gave all my First Series Poke'Mon Cards to my cousin, and started fresh on two Dragon Boosters:

    Rares

    Latias Ex (Cool card, does 100 DMG!)
    Skarmory
    Shelgon
    Magneton
    Trainer-High Pressure System

    The Rest

    Geodude
    Spoink
    Trapinch
    Bagon (Normal picture)
    Trainer-Buffer Piece
    Shuppet
    Pineco
    Magnemite (Normal picture)
    Magnetmite (Second picture)
    Torchic
    Nincada
    Magneton (Second, non-Rare picture)
    Bagon (Second picture)
     
    The only card in those that you listed, PokeMaster, would probably be the rare Magneton. Other than that, the rest aren't worth playing, but they are good for your collection.
     
    Oh ok. That's cool. My friend really wanted me Latias though, but he wants the collection.....Not for playing use.
     
    Today I went to my local tourny and got fourth place! (Not too bad, I guess). We all got one of the POP Sevii Islands Promo Packs! Also, the winner got 8 packs opf the promos! He didn't want them so he sold them to me for $1. Here's what I got in a total of 9 Sevii Islands Promo Packs (Missing 1 Swellow):

    Surskit
    2x Masquerain
    2x Larvitar
    Pupitar
    3x Swellow
    Murkrow
    Torkoal
    3x Minun
    3x Plusle

    Are any pf these good? Just ask if you need help knowing what they do.

My second Pack contained an Amphoros ex (Very nice Poke'Body effect and much needed) and Flygon (Cool card). That's about it. My dealer for the Packs has two more left, I am buying them and I will Post what I get outta those, LOL. :P
