The way it's been going, I won't even open the only 2 ETBs I manage to secure. Thanks to bots, sites sell out within seconds. Crossing my fingers on release.
@@PureChaos_NA honestly yes the bots are bad but there are infinitely more people that are in alert servers now for restocks and all of those things together make it tough. But don’t give up. 🙏
@@justinquinones798 tbh man I say you open one of them, at the end of the day we get pokemon for the experience and to have fun. So I would open one and the other one save!
My gawd, I will never financially recover from this. In all honesty though with the scarcity and price increase it means I'll be saving money this year!
I was able to get some product for reasonable prices.However, i really find it strange that up till this day there is no Pokemoncenter in EU. We have to jump via a few hoops to be able to get pokemon center ETB's for double the price which is insane seeing how many pokemon fans there are in Europe. Here is to hoping they will eventually change this and hopefully they will print enough troughout the year so everyone can enjoy this set for reasonable prices.
That’s what everyone said on shining fates and crown zenith. Yea there are more bots. But if the price gets so high those people reselling won’t be able to flip. It depends on how often and large the restocks are. But Pokémon does not like it when ppl can’t get product. They have font thru this before.
There are a lot of French Yters that are opening Prismatic for a while now. Pullrates for masterballs and SIRs is extremely low. No way this can be masterseted.😢
Thank you for notifying on the eeveelutions! I was worried that all the standard cards weren't going to be in the set at all and therefore no masterballs.
We knew that we were getting master balls in English along time ago, but I was definitely worried when we saw the evolution cards as promos in those products when they first got revealed I wish we would’ve known sooner but at least now we know that we will have master Ball variant of the EV evolutions
Hey Chris, you're right to say that all of this exclusivity will drive this sets popularity, the downside being the fomo driven will overpay at first. However the upside is aswell as Pokemons plan to release Prismatic product throughout the year it will also prompt them to reprint this set greatly. Like you, I'm going to wait. We're already seeing this with Battle Partners going for triple MSRP already.
Korean set should also be coming soon which is always cheaper than Japanese so that's an option too. Just wait out the initial wave of FOMO and prices will drop. Prices of most SAR singles for Japanese cards plummeted after 2 weeks. Makes no sense to buy boxes at scalper prices.
Thanks for sharing the confirmation! Justinbasil caused a lot of misinformation…but they were partially correct - just the eeveelution art will be different. Also looks like they were wrong about 2 IRs being in the set.
Yeah, I agree. I definitely think that it did cause a little bit of confusion but at the same time I think it was a good article just so that people knew that there were cards being excluded from the set, which was important because with Pokémon, you just never know what they’re gonna do. I’m super excited about this though having different master ball cards in English then in Japanese, I think it’s an intriguing idea.
I do believe vault X 12 pocket should fit everything, but if not the only other binders that I know that are bigger are I believe a company called top load
@chrispytcg i invested in this set i have kept my etbs and booster box sealed but going to open my sleeved boosters i paid retail for also packed espeon a few weeks ago 🙌
They are not as different as people think. Yea deff more ppl in the market now for sure. But crown came out at the tail end of the hype season as well before scarlet and violet. I agree ppl need to adapt but at the same time they need to not be super impatient and irresponsible with their money either
There is plenty of cheap sets for the new comers. This set should be cheaper as the year goes on and stores bring them to stores and other sets release.
Yeah, I got 4% of what I pre-ordered honestly it’s really bad and I have multiple distributors. But the good news is it is going to be released all throughout the year for different products which does make me feel like they’re going to continuously print packs, which I think eventually people will be able to find it out in the wild. I don’t think the price is gonna drop. But I do think it’ll be a little bit more accessible in a couple of months for people.
It’s too late for advice which is why I made my pre-orders couple months ago🤷🏾♂️ 10 ETBs from GameStop walkin, 10 ETBs GameStop online, and 10 3pack tech sticker online.. and the reason I say it’s too late because we’re in the market now where nothing is going to even be able to stay on the shelf for one hour it’s going to be cruise of people ready to snag and resell even when the partners come out and the team rocket come out and the blooming waters come out,,, all of that is going to get scooped up every time it gets released
@@TeddyBrooski-th9qx I agree in a sense. But I think it’s still possible to obtain product. But it’s just wayy wayy harder. Even for stores and online stores like me obtaining product from our distribution is tough.
@@kawhiiee I totally agree. I don’t get the floating diamond look and it’s just a rainbow of colours, doesn’t feel very creative. High hopes for team rocket 🚀
I'm basically only buying japanese I haven't pre ordered a single English product if I find it in the wild cool if not then cool I'm not paying ridiculous prices for it sure it's a good set but team rocket set going to be Insane if they do it right
be careful with refreshing the page because PC is kinda good with bots. Also just be prepared. If you're prep with all info ready and card ready and you're semi quick, you will most likely get one.
Do your best to hit Pokémon center that morning online and also I recommend target,Walmart,GameStop at opening on release day. Yea it’s gonna be rough but still better to at least try
Well technically they were still correct. Those exact cards were excluded from the set. Which is still true. We just don’t officially know what was going to be in their place or if anything was 100%. But now we k ow for sure which is nice
@@KrisPSouls9258 I understand what you mean but it’s definitely not apples to apples because magic not only makes different variance within the same set, but they also reprint the exact same cards like five or six times across different sets. At least Pokémon only releases the cards within one set and sometimes and a specialty set to fill a small spot and it’s always a common or uncommon card not a hyper, rare or higher rarity card, but I totally understand what you mean that’s also one of the reasons why I stopped collecting Magic outside of reserve list😂
What are your thoughts on the English exclusive master ball cards?🎉
New Years Resolution 🎉 Master setting Prismatic evolution. Ftw
@ may the odds be in your favor!!! 🫡

i managed to scoop up like 8 etbs and about 16 of the special cllection box things idk if i rip any of it either the prices are gonna stay mental.

I’m excited! Really liked Terastal Festival
I really do hope the Pokémon company prints this set into the ground harder than crown zenith just for the chance to get one box at msrp 😭
If pokecenter restocks on release date, what time? Is it at midnight?
10am Est

Yea that’s a huge trap. No regular main Japanese set will hold at that anymore. Pokémon japan has proven to reprint over and over again now.
lets go prismatic looks so iconic set 🎉 i have possitive energy that i will pull some master ball !
Thanks for the update about the set ❤
Korean set should also be coming soon which is always cheaper than Japanese so that's an option too. Just wait out the initial wave of FOMO and prices will drop. Prices of most SAR singles for Japanese cards plummeted after 2 weeks. Makes no sense to buy boxes at scalper prices.
When in doubt go to LGS right at opening on the release day to get the product.
Yes 100% LGs. And GameStop would be the two places I’d go
Guys enjoy the boxes you have got! I managed to secure myself 1 etb and i definitely wanna open it because i want to enjoy the hobby of collecting! :)
Thanks for sharing the confirmation!

Im new to pokemon collecting, and have never done it before, but will this mean surging sparks will be more available now? (Im in uk if that matters)
Do we have an binder on the market that wil fit all cards in the sett thats my question😅
I do believe vault X 12 pocket should fit everything, but if not the only other binders that I know that are bigger are I believe a company called top load
weeee cant wait, 17jan i receive ETB, 2 booster bundles and 27 jan the umbreon tin
I’m just hoping that when it releases I’ll be able to get stellar and surging as well as other SV sets
@@epp9er praying that’s the case
Me too…only could get a few surging sparks products before they dried up :/
I have the masterball vaporeon in japanese. Hopefully as its different it keeps the price held higher
@chrispytcg what do you think about Jouney Together? Do you think it will be a popular set?
Yes but I think it will be more on the Stellar crown level. Not Surging
Thanks for the update 👍
do you know when the super premium box for prismatic will go on sale
Thanks for the info! 😊
You got it! 😄
Super stoked for the masterballs!
I'm stoked too! Can't wait to see everyone's pulls.
I dont know if im going to buy this set im currently opening fusion strike trying to pack the gengar v max 🙏
Just buy the gengar!! Fusion strike is extremely tough to pull it right now and those packs are getting super expensive
@chrispytcg i invested in this set i have kept my etbs and booster box sealed but going to open my sleeved boosters i paid retail for also packed espeon a few weeks ago 🙌
@ nice!!!! Good luck 🍀
isnt PE released on Jan. 17..........7AM Pacific Time or 10AM ET?
Est* I have more success at 10 but deff be ready at both times if possible. Just hoping Pokémon doesn’t change the trend with the demand
Hey, can you tell me will Pokémon let me use the same account I pre-ordered from to buy more ETB wise
As far as I know yes. But I’m unsure if any changes will be made for this specific release and how things have been lately.
This is going to be a nightmare lol. I want to get one or two of those PC ETBs but the chances are slim to none. Thanks for the info though Chris
It will be tough but you gotta try!
Big thx for the update!
You know, here’s me looking at vintage Pokemon cards since this set is still SO far out and I can’t get any products anyways lol
I have been doing a few vintage pick ups here and there as well.
If English prices like this for future generations I will be making sure my son gets into Japanese 😂
Happy new year and don’t panic 😂🎉
Crown zenith release market and prismatic markets are totally different
We have to adapt
They are not as different as people think. Yea deff more ppl in the market now for sure. But crown came out at the tail end of the hype season as well before scarlet and violet. I agree ppl need to adapt but at the same time they need to not be super impatient and irresponsible with their money either
I hope I'll eventually be able to open Prismatic lol
Good luck to anyone trying to pull a master set
GGs to any new comers trying to get in lol 😂 I’d rather spend my $500 on a sports box with a autograph instead of that pre order number sheeeeeeh
Yea the pre order numbers are deff diabolical in some areas
There is plenty of cheap sets for the new comers. This set should be cheaper as the year goes on and stores bring them to stores and other sets release.
Godspeed to Masterset this
You’re most definitely are buying packs on release date.
The allocation in my area is crazy. 8% of what the owner order.
Yeah, I got 4% of what I pre-ordered honestly it’s really bad and I have multiple distributors. But the good news is it is going to be released all throughout the year for different products which does make me feel like they’re going to continuously print packs, which I think eventually people will be able to find it out in the wild.

We are due for a SIR for Lugia 😅
Would have been nice to see one in this set.

@chrispytcg I definitely want booster boxes of rocket
Chat he said 7am EST. So 5 am in the west coast?!?
7am and also 10am. More success at 10am est but have also hit drops at 7am as well.
Where do we buy? Lol😅
Pokemoncenter at the times I said are best times. But if you are In The USA I reccomend GameStops at open time on release
Awesome Video!
Bruh, why are they burning holes in our pockets. I got like 20 ETBs coming in but sheesh...
I might just resell
I feel that.
Plenty of Prismatic? Like there’s tons of 151?
be careful with refreshing the page because PC is kinda good with bots. Also just be prepared. If you're prep with all info ready and card ready and you're semi quick, you will most likely get one.
Very good info 🙏🙌
I have the Eevee Master Ball!! Come see me pull it on my channel! 👀
Low hanging fruit
I told you in your video weeks ago that these were the eeveelutions arts that we were getting. People were freaking out about nothing
Hello :)
Remember they said 151 would be available, it hadn’t been, this set has bigger hype, all these year sets are FOMO without a doubt, don’t wait.
151 was easily accessible for an entire year before it dried up. But I 100% believe this set will be printed an insane amount thru-out the year.
I hate these extreme prices on release day. But I really want this set
Do your best to hit Pokémon center that morning online and also I recommend target,Walmart,GameStop at opening on release day. Yea it’s gonna be rough but still better to at least try
I just want 1 for pers
