I've always recommended to people to start with the Crown Zenith set. It's such a great set! The pulls are generous, and the artwork is really good. To be honest, I feel like the Trainer Gallerys - in Crown Z - are so underpriced. Only reason its underpriced is because of the generous pull rate. But anyway, crown zenith is a perfect set to begin your collecting journey. After crown zenith, get into Obsidian Flames, Paldean Fates, and then Brilliant Stars and Silver Tempest. In this order! Then when you really want to press your luck, Fusion, Lost Origin, and 151.
Haven't touched Pokemon cards since I was a child, but I grabbed a single sleeved Paldea Evolved pack from GameStop as a nostalgia trip and pulled the gold Skeliderge ex. Now I'm hooked again.
Thank you so much for making this video. My wife collected cards because she thought they were cute. We recently picked up the Battle Academy and after learning how to play she was terrified by the amount of products, sizes, alts, everything! This helped a lot!
I opened one Charizard promo tin and pulled the Bubble Mew ex. Pretty awesome feeling pulling a $100 card from a $20 walmart tin!! I'm sure I will regret it years from now, but just sold the Mew on Whatnot. Also i've opened about 5 packs total of Fusion strike, pulled Espeon vmax! Only recently got back into the hobby, its been nice to me so far!
I started with shrouded fable again since the boosters are so cheap (2€) and i checked the cards they are still pretty cool, then i bought a lot of diversity. Im starting to focus on master sets now slowly
I skipped buying a case of stellar crown, but i still bought a few sleeves to open, and somehow got all the best cards, like the squirtle ir and hydrapple ex sir, the rainbow ex lapras, and cinderace, the blastoist and venusaur ex, an acespec, all the best rares and reverse holographics
I only got into getting IRL cards was the TCG Poket release.. so i started with Paledean Fates, and in the first ETB i ever opened were actually an Bubble Mew Ex. I was like oh i like that card looks cool, and i send a pic to my friend to then told me that is an really good card to pull.
I need that Spiritomb! I’ve loved Pokémon since 99/00, but only recently got back into collecting cards (except Trick or Trade which I’ve collected the past 3 years). My collection is less value-focused and more what sparks joy for me. I love the ghosts! 👻 Also my partner and I have recently been pulling a fair amount of Crown Zenith and WOW the hits have been crazy! I pulled the Darkrai V Star from our first ETB, such a good looking card imo!
That’s great! I have some stocking stuffers on my eBay page if you want a little something to add on. I’ve got a video on my eBay page showing some stuff.
Just found my old cards from 2000, went and completed the team rocket set and have the two sealed theme decks so just waiting for The glory of team rocket next year.
First off, Where is my Pidgey is one of the best usernames I’ve ever heard of. I’m subscribing just for that but also, because I’m applying to be a Pokemon trading card expert at a local collectible store, so I’m trying to learn as much as possible about collecting cards and Pokemon in general 👍
TCG Player is a great place to just look around and see all the cards in the sets - you can sort them by price high to low just to see the cool stuff and learn what all there is.
New to all of this: bought a couple boosters after watching a bunch of videos. Seeing all of the grails and huge collections is dope. But when you said something to the effect of "you have to save money, you cant buy it all" that hit home for me, I like your style keep up the good content.
@@WhereismyPidgey or I’m just dumb lol. I looked at a couple of the other websites and they have some! Appreciate the video, finally found some places with decent priced packs instead of from stores.
Getting back into the hobby after the new tcg app came out lol. I decided to revisit my collection and price check it. Turns out one of my fave cards is like $100 ungraded. Also another one of my favs is like $50. Both were rainbow secret rare mimikyus, which is one of my favorite pokemon. My luck really was crazy 😅
Thank you for watching - all 3 rounds of mystery boxes are sold out!
Sent an offer but wasn’t able to add UA-cam user name :/
How do I send an offer

Yeah I bought 3 of those crown zenith boxes from sams and they're so fun to pull 😭
Terrified to start pulling from other sets 💀
CRZ, BRS and SIT were the luckiest sets to me. I basically instantly 10x'ed the money on openings.
Paradox Rift and Temporal Forces are by far the most underrated sets in the S&V era.
That’s what I’m saying especially temporal forces
I'm starting to believe big time in that set!
I'm a temporal forces truther
Temporal forces for sure.
Haven't touched Pokemon cards since I was a child, but I grabbed a single sleeved Paldea Evolved pack from GameStop as a nostalgia trip and pulled the gold Skeliderge ex. Now I'm hooked again.
As someone who was incredibly overwhelmed as heck on where to begin, this was so useful, thanks.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!

@@WhereismyPidgey I've subscribed! Thank you!
Haven’t collected pokemon cards since primary school over 10 years ago. Just getting back into it now, this video helped alot, thankyou
Just started collecting, got me a 151 posted box, and didn't open it, so THANK YOU for helping support my decision, lol
respect man, i’m just getting into the hobby and this was super helpful!
Thank you for going quick on the last pack - and not turning the moment into like 3 minutes like some other channels 😅
So late to the party, but you best believe I’m watching this video. New subscriber and loving the content so far!
Thank you!!!
Ive been buying cheap packs of older cards from dollar general been happy about it so far lol
Dollar general sells cards? Have u pulled any cards that are over $10 in value yet?
I cant believe content of this quality isn't monetized yet
So close!!!

That Espeon is where its at! So good!
helpful video, I started back in xy, and quit around tag team so I've not known about the best sets to get
So happy to see your channel growing so nicely, so well deserved!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for the video. My kids are getting into Pokémon cards and this video helped a ton! Excited to enjoy this with them.
So glad you liked it! I hope they have a ton of fun!
Thanks for the advice bro. You’ve just received a new subscriber!
Great video for someone like me learning. Why are you setting the energy cards aside? Thanks
I end up doing separate boxes for all my stuff - so common cards, energy, and rare stuff - I try to keep it all separate from one another.
Definitely enjoying these videos.
Woo hoo!
I started with shrouded fable again since the boosters are so cheap (2€) and i checked the cards they are still pretty cool, then i bought a lot of diversity. Im starting to focus on master sets now slowly
The 151 poster promo box has gonw up to anywhere form $28 to over $100 and its been about 1 month.
It's still 15 here in my town
How does this channel only have 919 subscribes this video is so good. GET THIS MAN TO 1K SUBS
Thank you so much for that! I'm so excited! So close!

Same for me! Managed to pull the Charizard from Brilliant Stars in my first pack

Thats awesome! I love all the ghost pokemon big time - I'm working on getting a Gengar Masterball if I can!
Crazy story when Palladia evolved first came out. I opened up really like five packs and I pulled the Magikarp an sold a few days later for $45 or $50
Ohhhhh snap!!!
Thanks for the video! I'm an uncle buying cards for his nephew as uh Christmas gift
That’s great! I have some stocking stuffers on my eBay page if you want a little something to add on. I’ve got a video on my eBay page showing some stuff.
Haha I pulled the Excalibur and said the same thing. It looks crazy though. I dig it.
I definitely watched the go fishing or something lol keep it up bro🎉🎉
Those Mew calls have worked a treat, how many have you got?
I think I have two left - maybe 3 got to check my grading orders! Yeah I’m glad I got good timing on that.
Just found my old cards from 2000, went and completed the team rocket set and have the two sealed theme decks so just waiting for The glory of team rocket next year.
THAT is amazing! You are going to have an awesome time next year when that comes out! I love that old team rocket set!
I’m from the future you were right about Bubble Mew
It has gone wild!
Thanks for advice , Just subbed
Thanks for watching!!!
I like a lot of the shrouded fable cards 😭
Just randomly stubbing soon this just getting into Pokemon crazy world
The fish calls to us all my friend!
Too bad scalpers and psycho collectors who buy the entire shelf ruin it for others.

where should I get cheaper surging sparks booster boxes?
@@ThePhenomenon151 everywhere expensive now it seems.
How come this video does not get the traction it deserve? Such a nice content
Thank you!! One day the pidgey empire will rule all.
What’s a better investment surging sparks or supercharged breaker
I'm English sets all the way so Surging Sparks in my opinion.
i dont even know how to get started, been out of pokemon for so long and want to get back into it

Thank you for watching! Yeah I have to always remind myself to not chase everything just what I really want!
Link to video with where to buy booster boxes??
I'm fairly confident there would be more shark deaths If we decided to milk sharks like cows 🧑🌾🦈
That is a solid point haha
I saw the go fishing video. I hope I can still get that deal. How would I know?
Sadly all three rounds of those boxes sold out so fast! But I'm doing a new box set in January!
@ hey man I really appreciate the response. I’m glad I found this channel keep it up 👍
WHAT DA FISH DOIN?
What website do you get the $100 surging sparks bbs?
Danny has a deal, but you do need to order 3 at once www.youtube.com/@DannyPhantump
I didn’t see the surging sparks booster box?
On the website? Oh I wonder if he sold out?!
@@WhereismyPidgey or I’m just dumb lol. I looked at a couple of the other websites and they have some! Appreciate the video, finally found some places with decent priced packs instead of from stores.
@@tylernelson6000 Awesome - yes I was going to say I just saw them online at Josh's Cards as well. It's hard to find good stores sometimes!
maybe u gotta change the rod? good and super rods are meh, use old rod :D.
question, how do i get bulk cards? xd just to let my kids enjoy em'
I think some places sell bulk stuff like that? I can try and look into it!
or you could just do whatever you like most 🤷♂️
It’s totally fine if collecting is a hobby and not a side hustle.
So at this point should i just buy the cards i want for my collection or buy packs to gamble for it? :////
I think cards - pack prices are crazyyyy right now
I watched the go fishing 👀
Hii, are you looking for 7/11 Lapras?
HELP! Australia is totally dry of 151
Getting back into the hobby after the new tcg app came out lol. I decided to revisit my collection and price check it.
Turns out one of my fave cards is like $100 ungraded. Also another one of my favs is like $50.
Both were rainbow secret rare mimikyus, which is one of my favorite pokemon. My luck really was crazy 😅
Thats awesome! Glad you got some good luck on that!
You make me wonder, Where is my Damm Pidgey
haha I still haven't found mine.
Mr Pidgey does your community have a discord? I like your videos
One day for sure!
New sub
Glad to be subbed in the pre 1k era!
Forever a OG sub!
zapados is crazy lol im sure its been zapdos forever
I'm pretty sure he knows it's not Zapados, similar to when I call it Pokeman for fun sometimes
@@whosmokesthablunts496 not sure if he sure. Said it so calmly and repeatedly, cant take it seriously.
I watched the go fishing video

Went fishing twice. Was unsuccessful both times. Had to tap out lol😂 That feeling when you pull that third illustration rare and it’s not Magikarp 🫥
Going fishing is really rough these days!
