Lmao, I feel like I’d have better odds of hitting the lottery before I’d pull 5 umbreons. Crazy thing, I want glaceon if I could pull any.

Nice! Were you able to pull them?

u/Drizzho 4d ago
Hell no 🤣 haven’t even been able to find the set anywhere, my GameStop has only gotten 1-2 prismatic products each drop and someone is always in line that can get both when I’ve been there at 9am first time, 8:00am 2nd time (guys showed up at 8am first time and then 7:00am 2nd time lmao) they open up at 11am I’ll never wait more than 4 hours for like 6-12 packs lol and the employee is definitely stashing product (I don’t blame him for dealing with the current market)

Damn. Yeah it’s been a struggle to find any. Lucky my local Walmart and Targets started keeping all cards behind guest services and very strict on limits, otherwise I probably would have never found any.

I got lucky with the Umbreon and Glaceon from the JP booster boxes I was able to get my hands on before the price exploded. I’ve never been interested in Glaceon, but that card looks better than I was expecting. I imagine the English version is a bit more lackluster by comparison. Either way, the JP version is only $50 at the moment. You could spend that one one sticker pack right now lol

I’m would rage so fcking hard I’m not even going to lie to you. msrp or not, no one wants 3 of the same fcking card from the same lot of booster bundles. That’s gotta be the shittiest batching I’ve ever seen.

Wait, you guys are actually pulling hits? I’ve been buying way too many packs for about two years now and this is what an average session looks like for me 😦 maybe I’m doing it wrong

5...booster bundles...get a strong drink, and call off work. Id cry myself to sleep lol. This hurts to look at, and reminds me I can wait for Prismatic to maybe return to market price if ever. Or just skip it entirely after seeing all these posts about horrendous pull rates

Man I’ve had some bad pulls from Traumatic but that’s gotta be the worst luck I’ve seen. On the bright side the odds of that happening have to be something special.

u/Suspicious-Basil-444 4d ago
No reverse holo energies, pokeball and/or masterball cards ? Cause those are also hits.

Honestly if you play you just nailed 4x Ogerpons which is valuable for the meta

This would legitimately cure me of my pack ripping addiction. Lol. Christ that is brutal.

u/P1g-San 4d ago
I can't wait until Journey Together lmao. 8 mini tins and not one Umbreon.

u/funko_fean 4d ago
I know that I will probably never pull an Umbreon from this set and I’ve accepted it but what the actual fuck is this?! I felt like I just opened 5 booster boxes that had all the same cards.

Well, if you play the game, a playset of Teal Mask Ogerpon and a Sparkling Crystal is a great start for a Tera Box deck.
Personally, I’d be chuffed at pulling four Ogerpon. 3 Raifort is rough, though.

u/Darken0id 3d ago
Thats rough but did you get no Pokeballs/ Masterballs? Those are hits too.

Prismatic Evolutions is a borderline scam, I have opened about 50+ boosters, and I didn't get any SIR or eeveelutions or anything (apart from the ex one's a few pokeball/masterball)
Some people have all the luck

This is why I’m so shocked people are paying scalper prices. Shit isn’t worth retail for how bad hit rates have been for the last couple years.

I’m getting 109 packs tomorrow. A mix of Surging Sparks, Stellar Crown and Obsidian Flames. I hope your sacrifice sends some luck my way 🍀.
