The X/Y era is what brought me back into Pokemon card collecting after a friend showed me some full-arts. I fully agree that these cards have some of the best art and seeing them makes me feel so nostalgic.
Off topic but I just ordered the new milk cartons from the coliseum and I just wanted to thank you for not only making amazing content for the community but also keeping your shop reasonable so collectors don’t get financially pushed out of the hobby. Seriously thanks for all you do for us! Let’s get to that 100k! ✊
I missed out on all of the eras between 2003 and 2020! I don't know if I will ever "catch up" on all those years in between but I am always fascinated to see so many great arts and card types I missed.
Not unless you go completely bonkers AND broke trying to collect the shiny bits from 20 years of Pokémon! Happy with where we are; collect what I like and what plays well. I have three pages of “These make me smile!” Pokémon in the front of my binder- if I ever stop that, I’ll know I need a break!
I am mixed with Scarlet and Violet sofar, given that Sword and Shield ended on such a high with really exciting sets it would be difficult to top that "anticipated excitement".
It has nothing to do with the covid boom. also, nothing is "screwed up" except your line of thinking. It's called supply and demand, and these are collectibles. Were you going to go out and purchase all of them? Does this come down to you not having the money? Perhaps you should obtain the cards when the price is low and supply is higher as everyone had a fair chance to get the cards when they were available. LOL
@@johnmckenney2244 lmao idk why you had to come with such hostility. Just literally look at the charizard base set price pre 2020 and post 2020. Look at any xy booster box pre 2020 and post 2020. Look at any black and white booster pack pre 2020 and post 2020. The covid boom most definitely f’d up the pokemon tcg market or made it better depending on how you feel. Also idk why tf you’re bringing up this “were you going to purchase all them and do you not have the money” nonsense when my comment literally had nothing to do with that. Don’t bring that supply and demand crap to me when we got cards like the moonbreon still sitting at $500 even though there are thousands of psa 10 copies. Stop acting like such a smart ass and do a little more research instead of using supply and demand as your only argument cuz you won’t win buddy. LOL
@John McKenney you are wrong if you think anyone during covid could simply run out and get whatever they wanted during the youtube creator boom AND printing issues during the height of covid, sir. It was definitely not fair and everyone did not have an equal chance to get product. Just saying.
@@HarpoonCannon idk how his comment has any likes thinking the covid boom didn’t mess up the pokemon tcg market lol. I don’t blame him though he probably started collecting during covid so he doesn’t know what it used to be like otherwise he wouldn’t have said that
@@jeffh757 Have to agree. Silver was for shinies; giving all of them a silver seems like the boneheaded Army move to “give every Soldier a black beret, and enemies will think they’re all Rangers!” (Um, no.) But we learn to appreciate them, so Pokémon’s LOTS OF STARS ratings seem designed to give something new in the Gilttery Magpie department!
Some of those full arts and alt ard cards are clean and amazing, the new EX's have tough competition, and they dont live up to it at the moment will be interesting to see how it grows as scarlet and violet go on,
The art work was cleaner on some of the older ones. Some of the newer ones do look a little busy but still nice. I can't wait to get some of the new silver borders!
of course I miss those ! I remember opening my first booster box on my birthday and it was flashfire, and I got the full art zard, I was so happy I took care of it up to today, probably still my favorite card !!
These are my favorite cards outside of alt arts. i have managed to grab most of the XY era ones but still missing a few and then missing all the B&W era full arts.
the backgrounds of the full arts are definitely better than the ones lately. maybe I don't like the art style of the Pokemon as much but not sure about that. but one thing is for sure, the gengar is sweet as
Wow I have never seen a lot of these. Stopped collecting right after diamond and pearl release and got back into the hobby about a year ago. Love that Mew EX you brought up in this video, the Gengar too
I have the Rayquaza EX full art from dragons exalted , the zekrom EX full art, landorus EX full art, Entei EX full art,the M Mewtwo EX full art,the gengar EX full art from phantom forces and love them greatly . i also have many other full art EXs and every single regular art EX in every set in black and white from next destines to plasma blast . totally love Black and White and XY
I'm almost done with the celebration set, I'm looking into any other potential card set to get into but they seem so massive and impossible to complete.
I missed the first EX's. It's new to me so it's exciting! Maybe bringing them back will continue to be a cycle for new comers, like ex, then V's, and back around. All great cards and illustrations! Thanks for the video ❤
I wasn’t collecting during any of the ex era (except the very beginning, I stopped collecting at ex Sandstorm as a kid) so I’m super excited for the return!
I miss EX era and wish I had some packs to rip from back in the day. I remember going to Target to get one pack of plasma blast with my mom, and I so wish I could experience that again.
My guy, I have been thinking about this so much here the last few months! lol Just imagining appreciating the original sets and packs more than I did as a kid.
I've binged a few of your videos today since I came across your channel and so many of these cards start their '22 upward trend in roughly aug 22. Anything notable happen last summer?
All love Danny your the most infectious informational poketuber on the space currently you back everything up with statistics and data and it’s something that not a lot of people on UA-cam do
I love the Mega full art Ex cards, especially that rayquaza! It’s one of my favorite cards that I own, wish I picked up more Mega cards when they were cheaper!
I really miss the classic ex card from late e series into the end of its lifespan with the delta species there was weight into the card with the artwork and holographic patterns even if it seems simple to today’s standards.
I missed out on the ex era so im kind of excited they are coming back. And most definitely yes, the resurgence of current ex's are bringing up the price of past ones.... I will admit i am part of that problem because im going back to grab some of them and i bet im being taken advantage of lol
Just pulled a m rayquaza ex from roaring and bought the mega venasaur for 6 dollars! Feels like a steal considering how much nicer they are compared to most C and Vmax cards
personally some of my favorites are the 'plasma' full arts, I've been grading a handful here and there and getting tons of 10s... I'm starting to consider going for a full set lol
I wish I would’ve got into the TCG back when Pokémon go came out. I still grind pogo to this day. But I didn’t even consider the TCG until about shining fates came out. I missed out on so much
Wow! I actually just traded for that Gardevior EX at my local game store a few weeks ago for like $7, and now it's suddenly almost $20! Glad I got it then!😆
I am definitely one of the new collectors responsible for the price going up on some of the alt art looking cards. Idk if there were any in today's video though.

96k! I don’t have any EX cards but have been wanting to start collecting more full arts, old ex cards might be the way to go next
Great video Danny! Thanks for everything you do for this community!

That Genesect EX card looks awesome!! I love the colors and background!
The characters really pop out of the card, really energetic. Thanks for sharing your oldies, Danny.

I have been trying to not watch SV openings either. Looking forward to saving the surprise! Thanks Danny!😊
Be prepared for disappointment
@@silverdawn2767 I'm actually jealous of Japan! :)
I LOVED the first EX’s they did!! Wasn’t crazy about the ones from this era, but I’m super excited to see how the new ones look
I absolutely love that gengar ex sweet looking cart
I am mixed with Scarlet and Violet sofar, given that Sword and Shield ended on such a high with really exciting sets it would be difficult to top that "anticipated excitement".
It’s crazy seeing what these card prices used to be back in 2016 just another prime example of how much the covid boom screwed up the market

100K is going to be huge!
I will miss yellow borders. And a lot of the D cards, because the phase-out will change some of the power decks fiercely.
Miss the yellow borders? Gross
I like yellow borders. They make the colors pop more. Silver borders mute the colors of the cards a bit.

Channel is just blowin up Danny, already almost 96

I missed the XY cards too, I think they are undervalue and under appreciated, specially for their rarity in PSA grades
Much love Danny P thanks for everything !
of course I miss those ! I remember opening my first booster box on my birthday and it was flashfire, and I got the full art zard, I was so happy I took care of it up to today, probably still my favorite card !!
Your always great ……..l congrats. On your. 95K. EVOLUTIONS AMAZING SET I LOVE THAT SET
I got back into Pokemon during the 20th anniversary, lots of Generations packs. Loved all those EXs, so beautiful!
These are my favorite cards outside of alt arts. i have managed to grab most of the XY era ones but still missing a few and then missing all the B&W era full arts.
the backgrounds of the full arts are definitely better than the ones lately. maybe I don't like the art style of the Pokemon as much but not sure about that.
but one thing is for sure, the gengar is sweet as
I will miss the rainbow cards. I think it’s very underrated. Love the videos Danny! ❤
Wow I have never seen a lot of these. Stopped collecting right after diamond and pearl release and got back into the hobby about a year ago. Love that Mew EX you brought up in this video, the Gengar too
I missed this era, but there are definitely some really cool full arts from then!!
Everyone should check out Xerneas ex full art. One of the most beautiful Pokemon cards ever imo.
I have the Rayquaza EX full art from dragons exalted , the zekrom EX full art, landorus EX full art, Entei EX full art,the M Mewtwo EX full art,the gengar EX full art from phantom forces and love them greatly . i also have many other full art EXs and every single regular art EX in every set in black and white from next destines to plasma blast . totally love Black and White and XY

These older cards awesome. I wish they would do arts like those again.
I loved every ex/EX era so far! I hope Scarlet & Violet comes through with the best yet🙏🏼🔥
I miss EX era and wish I had some packs to rip from back in the day. I remember going to Target to get one pack of plasma blast with my mom, and I so wish I could experience that again.

The artwork on some of these cards were just on point
Dude its crazy how expensive these pieces of cardboard are. and we love them!
So excited for the EX!! Just got back into playing and never played with them. Thanks for the great video
Danny is honestly such a generous, informative, and entertaining creator. Hope you hit the 100k mark soon!👍
Love these cards, some of my all time favorites. I just with I would have been in the hobby back then, and not just coming back to it last year
The full art ex cards were gorgeous, so much detail compared to full art v"s.
Thanks for sharing some bangers! I always appreciate when you show parts of your collection! Lots of great cards🔥
Nice, but can you do a video of older sets? Nostalgia to me are the gym sets or neo sets
Oh boy, just this video alone is going to boost these prices
:/
All love Danny your the most infectious informational poketuber on the space currently you back everything up with statistics and data and it’s something that not a lot of people on UA-cam do
Always informative, thanks for the great stream.
Started with EX cards back then and im excited for it to be back now as I start on pokemon TCG again!
Love those EX cards also GX as well Thanks for sharing
I love the Mega full art Ex cards, especially that rayquaza! It’s one of my favorite cards that I own, wish I picked up more Mega cards when they were cheaper!
Dark Explorers is such a great set. So glad I collected the master set of it back in the day.
I really miss the classic ex card from late e series into the end of its lifespan with the delta species there was weight into the card with the artwork and holographic patterns even if it seems simple to today’s standards.

I'll miss the gold EX graphics. I got into Pokemon TCG during the XY era so these cards will be nostalgic looking back at them
I love jelly bean gengar, picked up a few of those on TCG player for ~$42 last year and graded one last fall.
Love the artwork on that Gengar EX!! Awesome video Danny!
X and Y and sun and moon got me back Into Pokemon. Excited to see the new cards.
Just pulled a m rayquaza ex from roaring and bought the mega venasaur for 6 dollars! Feels like a steal considering how much nicer they are compared to most C and Vmax cards
Thanks for all the information you put out in these videos brother. It's really helpful when trying to figure out what sealed products to invest in!
Great video. I just found that Lucario EX in my collection.
These older EX cards look so good. So much better than current V's, and Full Arts
Let's go, Danny! Love the video and content.
You will hit 100k in no time. So happy for you Danny
personally some of my favorites are the 'plasma' full arts, I've been grading a handful here and there and getting tons of 10s... I'm starting to consider going for a full set lol
I wish I would’ve got into the TCG back when Pokémon go came out. I still grind pogo to this day. But I didn’t even consider the TCG until about shining fates came out. I missed out on so much
I recenty bought some EX cards for my collection. I love the full arts EX cards.
Invested in a lot of EX full arts from black and white and x&y and even some in this video and I can say I'm not disappointed at all
i played ex and gx and honestly loved ex more especially the artworks
Loving the market reviews!
That Sylveon EX is just fantastic. Giving me alt art vibes
So glad I held onto my sealed 20th anniversary mythical pin collection boxes.
You know it's going to be a good day when a Danny Phantump video gets uploaded! :)
Oh wow, I have the Gengar EX, I really love the card, I also had no clue of the value of it
I have a bunch of these BW EX cards and I’m happy to see them move!
Love seeing those full arts again!
Wow! I actually just traded for that Gardevior EX at my local game store a few weeks ago for like $7, and now it's suddenly almost $20! Glad I got it then!😆
Some very cool EX cards I started collecting after the EX so I’m excited for Scarlet and Violet
Was disappointed that suicune got left out of the full arts from dark explorers. Entei and Raikou looked amazing.
Hard to believe how the prices of these older cards are so much lower than some modern stuff.
Thanks man really like your videos help keep track and learn more about Pokemon and investing so I appreciate everything you do
I got back into Pokémon with XY flash fire. Still have the secret rate MCharizard X!
I’m glad that ex is coming back it’s something I experienced collecting but never playing
Loving ❤ this channel and the info you drop 😊
uff and in 2020 I bought all the full arts of Next destinies for a fraction... They also look great ^^. And again a great video and LG from Germany
Love how be brings it back to the TCG
Love the artwork on all of these, just beautiful cards
Not missing a single vid, another fantastic vid. Cheers Danny!
something else I personally miss is the smaller set sizes
Love the ex full arts
Luckily for me this set came out when I was younger and started collecting so I have a few of these fa’s
Man these older full arts are great!
I am building this set halfway done but the price is getting high to finish but I will just going to take longer
I almost beat Jason klyz in Tampa 2013 cities when he ran darkrai, keldeo. Good old days!
That’s an epic story. Wish he still played instead of just retro
prices are crazy compared to when i was really into them
I’ll be interested on your opinion of the new EX card quality.
#1 POKEMON news and stuff kinda guy
I wish they’d bring back tag teams in some way. The coolest kind of cards
I am definitely one of the new collectors responsible for the price going up on some of the alt art looking cards. Idk if there were any in today's video though.
Keep up the great work Danny!
Welp looks like the price spikes are slowly going to the BW/XY era of cards.
Yup too bad I was still a kid back then when the singles were cheap
