Why are slowking cards so expensive
>>58302942Because le textured komiya
Worst sets of SV era>Prismatic Evolution>Surging Sparks>Destined Rivals>SV Base>Black Bolt/White Flare>Obsidian Flame
>>58303131151 dogshit is only liked by tourists
>>58303143151 sucks but it's far from being the worst in SV
Pulled both UR and SIR Lillie's Determination feels good to be a gangsta
>>58303131BB/WF feel great to open with 1/6 rates for illustration rares.
>>583031431. Hidden Fates2. Silver Tempest3. 1514. Evolving skiesthese are the most graded sets in the TCG.
>>58303143>>58303160151 is pretty much the only set that actually matters.Its the only one with a clear set identity, making it actually appealing to master the entire set.Other sets suck theyre just a random mess of random pokemon with no rhyme or reason for their inclusion.First time ever we get a set in fucking Pokedex order - First time ever -Very good for binder collectors with OCD, this makes it even more appealing to collect entirely.The historic return of kadabra after Uri Gellar relinquished his lawsuit victory of tpci.Evo lines are all done by the same artists.Starters are loosely connected arts.The list goes on and on and on how 151 is so fucking superior to every set. No other set can even hold a candle to its identity, collectibility, and history.Youre a literal fool, and likely a fake ass fan if you cannot recognize this.
>>58303383>Its the only one with a clear set identityThat identity is nostalgiaNothing unique or creative, just take the original thing and do it again, but this time add a few full artsBoring set, boring creatively, boring rerunsEven shitty xy evolutions is better than 151 in terms of being interesting
>still buying vintage
>still buying modern
>alt art mega abomasnow>mega manectric>IR delibird>mega mawile>1 Lillie's D>1 Pokecenter Lady>1 KirliaThat's all I got from one etb.
Just opened my first and only white flare pack (from a mini tin)My first ever full art card too!
>>58303415What do you mean take the original thing and do it again?Theyve never had all 151 in a single set ever.You fake ass tourist gtfo
>>58303415anon.. xy evolutions was literal inferior reprints of older previously existing cards. If you think thats good your on some next shit.
>>58303383doesn't most of that apply to Black Bolt and White Flare too?
>>58303319LOL its funny you said this 15 mins before i pulled that Jellicent ex above. >>58303629Well, i was aware of their prevalence but still a surprise for me anyhow.B&W has become my favourite game in the last few years, so i might get a booster box for one or the other in the future. Don't get what's with the silvery borders but i guess B&W sets are always doing something sort of different (like team plasma stuff)
>>58303680bro silver borders are the default now
>>58303708Yeh i just had a brain fart because i opened some sword and shield packs recently too.
While these cards aren't explicitly connected, I like to think this is all happening in the same city.
>still grading cards
>still posting Umbreon
>>58303671BB&WF has good set identity but they fucked the pokedex order thing by splitting it between two sets, and not making victini 000So basically nothing applies to BB&WF
