Great video as always and awesome pulls! Hope you open more Terastal Festival on the channel :) Not sure if anyone else had mentioned this but if you ever have trouble opening these Japanese packs, I believe there is a small incision on the top right corner of the pack that should make it easier to rip. Just wanted to put this on your radar for future openings!
I was wondering if you were going to do this, super happy to see this come across my notifs this morning! Espeon is my favorite so I'm glad you pulled that one lol.
stumbled upon your channel and I would like to thank you for getting me back into the hobby. your chill vibe is awesome to keep in the background. keep collecting! I love to watch the binder building, its my favorite part about pokemon TCG!
You know, actually seeing this opened and looking at some of the cards? I think I might join the hype train, this looks kinda crazy. I didn't realize they had so many reprints of so many playable cards as well - really happy about that. Man, the texturing on these cards is so good, especially on the Pokeball cards. I really wish that the English card quality was on par with Japan's. You got some really nice pulls this time around, too. That Iron Crown and the Espeon SAR? Gorgeous. Palafin? Nuts. Would be real cool to see this put in a binder, but I guess we'll see how that pans out. Excited for Prismatic, oh yes.
I think at this point I’ve decided to do a binder… I just dunno how to lay it out since every card has 3 versions instead of 2. So it’s too large for a 9 pocket binder, but doesn’t line up well with a 12 pocket. Suggestions?
@Pokelou502 Didn't even dawn on me that that was the case, quite the funny situation to be in. The first thing that comes to mind would be to lay out the set normally as you would with the regulars and reverses, then dedicate separate space - maybe after the ARs and other secrets for the pokeball variants... maybe you would have to play around with the placement of the Pokeball variants, but it could be an option.
I'm hoping to collect prismatic evolutions but if the pull rates are awful I'll definitely go for this instead because I love the eevee artwork and I'll be happy with any language.
I'm a beginner and your videos have been helping me so far! Really making me think if I want to do master sets or just specific cards haha. Subscribed!😊
Hey Lou, hope this isn't inappropriate but if you have any extra Xatu's or Hawlucha I'd love to trade for them LOL. Those are my 2 favorite pokemon and trying to collect them all
Really solid opening! Good luck on this set! Undoubtedly a huge amount of work for this one. Congrats on the recent add to the household! Hope everyone is adjusting well!
For Japanese sets I use luckytcg linked in the description, or korosseo shop which is Danny phantumps shop! I also ordered a case of this direct from Japan this time around.
Why are they guaranteed in Japan but not in the United States? It’s annoying af that it’s all RNG in the US not protecting the consumer. This would help drive prices down.
I decided this will be my first Japanese set, though not going to master it. My 2 booster boxes should arrive early next week. Mastering Prismatic Evolutions is going to be hard enough. 🤣
My first Japanese set was 151. I bought about 10 boxes when they were $50 each. My average value per box was like $65 in cards. Best boxes I’ve ever opened in Pokemon. I did a master set minus master balls. But I have everything else. I did have to buy singles to finish it though. But I ripped packs until I wasn’t getting value out of the boxes because of duplicates. This will be my second Japanese set I’ll collect. Aiming for the same thing, every card minus master balls.
I gotta admit i fell for the hype and ordered 3 boxes for Christmas even with the inflated prices, but its hard not to want to open some for those pretty eeveelutions
I actually preordered from a couple places, including Danny phantump at korosseo shop, luckytcg linked in the description, and I bought my own full case direct from a Japanese seller. So I’ve got plenty coming! I don’t believe it ended up being as scarce as everyone thought, so I’d recommend korosseo or luckytcg when they restock!
Not sure. After I get in my next round of boxes we’ll see what we pull and what variety… it’ll be quite expensive in Japanese with the master balls so not sure I can do both this and prismatic evolutions!
@Pokelou502 Same here, I was able to snap a few from PC. I also was able to get some from gamestop, too. I called my LCS, and she said they would have some in stock. Although they won't be able to accept pre-orders. So, I got to try and get there early to buy some.
@@Pokelou502The main hits I got were: -SR Nemona -AR Mimikyu -AR Diance (I got that one from a vending machine lmao) -SSR Espathra -A Radiant (I think that's the card term for a shiny pokemon) Lucario, Kilowattrel, Noibat, Oinkologne, and Spiritomb
I got these at a local card show the day after release, and honestly I overpaid just to get them that day and open for the video. So $65 per box. The ones I have coming next week I got for $53 per box!
The mapping is a waste of time really because it only tells you where one SAR is. But with two different God packs, a demi God pack, boxes with two single SAR's, boxes with two SAR's in the same pack, boxes with an SAR and an SR and the holoballs and masterballs too. Would you really not open all the packs?
You’re becoming on my favourites to watch, love the vibes and energy :)
2:51 Here you got a Pokeball Feraligart
I circled back! Good catch!!
master ball, sar, and trainer art in 1 box is crazy. i’m buying that palafin the second i see it

My other boxes should be arriving today, so I hope to open more soon!
hands down, you're videos are the best to watch. keep em coming!
that sylveon masterball wowoow

I catch myself looking for your uploads multiple times per week. I absolutely dig the vibe you have, really enjoy watching your videos!

Amazing pulls! The artwork in this set is so pretty!
Can't wait to see the pulls!!!

Wow, that Iron Crown SIR is gorgeous!! I didn't even know that was something you could pull from this set
Really solid opening! Good luck on this set! Undoubtedly a huge amount of work for this one. Congrats on the recent add to the household! Hope everyone is adjusting well!
Beautiful cards in this set for sure!
That espeon is amazing!
Where do you order
eBay’s always a good one

@joesco875 thx 😊
Why are they guaranteed in Japan but not in the United States? It’s annoying af that it’s all RNG in the US not protecting the consumer. This would help drive prices down.
Pretty sure its do to greed. I think jpn packs have had guaranteed hits since base set
Yeah but what sucks about japanese ones is that if you get an sar that you dont want in the first pack you know the rest of the box has nothing.
Not sure! Definitely different markets. I don’t mind the hunt too much in English myself.
@@Pokelou502 But I just watch pokerev open this set earlier today and he got 2 sar from the same pack. Not sure if thats ment to be possible though.
Yep, all normal! Each box is guaranteed 1 pokemon SAR. Some boxes will also have an extra trainer SR or SAR if you’re lucky!
The art is soo good. Cant wait for to get my hands on some
Awesome set! Can’t wait for Prismatic. Got 6 ETBs pre ordered. I am scared about the price for that masterset if I decide to collect 🤣
How many prismatic evolutions packs do you expect to open?
Honestly not sure. I have like 30 coming to me lol. I’ll give away some but I’ll likely open a bunch!
30 boxes coming to me, so 300 packs.
@@Pokelou502 dam!!!! That’s a goldmine. Good luck with the hunt! Looking forward to the videos.
Been loving the content man. Do you think your going to start master setting the japanese sets?
Honestly now that TCGplayer has Japanese singles I’ve been considering it!

Can't wait to get a hold of this set!
Wooo! My favourite poke creator love the vids 😊
I’m really loving your videos! Keep it up! 😊
This is awesome!
prismatic evos will be 🔥🔥🔥
I like this set a lot!
I gotta admit i fell for the hype and ordered 3 boxes for Christmas even with the inflated prices, but its hard not to want to open some for those pretty eeveelutions
You won’t regret it-it’s a really fun opening experience. I can’t wait for my extra boxes to come in.
I like the claim voice and no music. ❤❤❤
Jim halpert rippin packs 🗣
How did you buy them? I would love to get some

@@Pokelou502awesome thank you! Can’t wait to see more of your videos!
Are you going for the master set for the Japanese set too or just the English one?
Not sure. After I get in my next round of boxes we’ll see what we pull and what variety… it’ll be quite expensive in Japanese with the master balls so not sure I can do both this and prismatic evolutions!
I CAN'T WAIT FOR PRISMATIC EEVEELUTIONS!!!!!!!!!
Omg. so jealous right now!
Nice video! Your voice is very calming
What do you have on pre-order for Prismatic??
Right now just some Pokémon center ETBs! I hope to get some at my local shops though.
@Pokelou502 Same here, I was able to snap a few from PC. I also was able to get some from gamestop, too. I called my LCS, and she said they would have some in stock. Although they won't be able to accept pre-orders. So, I got to try and get there early to buy some.
keep up with this great videos!!
Nice, the sylveon master ball is the dream
I got 2 boxes just like these (but the previous expansion) when I visited Japan last week :)
Nice! What did you pull?
@@Pokelou502The main hits I got were:
-SR Nemona
-AR Mimikyu
-AR Diance (I got that one from a vending machine lmao)
-SSR Espathra
-A Radiant (I think that's the card term for a shiny pokemon) Lucario, Kilowattrel, Noibat, Oinkologne, and Spiritomb
I love this set! How much did you pay for these box’s if you don’t mind me asking? I’m looking forward to ordering some
I got these at a local card show the day after release, and honestly I overpaid just to get them that day and open for the video. So $65 per box. The ones I have coming next week I got for $53 per box!
@ sick! That sylveon masterball looks awesome, love watching these chill openings.
You did miss a Pokéball near the beginning
I circled back! Good eye!
I don’t really have a way to guarantee I get anything for prismatic evolutions, so I’m kind of excited/terrified for it haha
Dang I’m starting to really like these masterballs, and I did not want to start trying to collect Japanese card!
Oh heck yeah!! I wanna see some JP rips 😁
Just bought 4 boxes
Yo man I am from Italy and I wanted to ask from where cha you buy one of those
Here in the states there are a lot of sellers direct from Japan! Check around instagram, it’s where I found the most luck.
Are you still doing the give away from a few videos ago? Or have you already done it?
The surging sparks and 151 giveaways are already done! But I’ll be doing one for this set when I get my boxes in next week.
japanese packs can be such a pain to open😭i usually just use scissors haha
I should either use scissors or at least edit out my struggles lol
Hi havent watcheed full video but you did miss a pokeball reverse holo Feraligatr in the 1st box EDIT nvm you found it lol
Awesome bro are U in UK ?? As S2Kworldgaming tryna buy at least one pack but can't find noone I tell him to go whatnot...
I’m in the US!
you have missed the pokeball first pack.
I circled back around! Good eye!
You missed a pokeball before the first 5 minutes, I think...😅
I circled back!! lol
@Pokelou502 yeah. I comment before finishing the video 😅
grade🎉🎉

I agree! There’s always room for something else cool even outside of the guaranteed SAR.
Good pulls bro
