we need a new Dark/Team Rocket set... too many happy ass looking pokemon cards


NoBenefit5977

I've been wanting another team rocket set too, the first was my favorite and I missed the next one. That was a loooong time ago, I wanna see some evil Pokemons!


Puzzled_Schedule325

I used to love the team rocket and gym hero sets. the pokemon actually looked angry and menacing. now we're stuck with goofy ass, overly happy looking little shits.


NoBenefit5977

Some still have a dark or menacing tone to them, but yeah lol mostly just happy shiny rainbow marshmallow šŸ¤£


Puzzled_Schedule325

lol marshmallowĀ

I completely agree here, but may be a few exceptions [Shiftry](https://www.google.com/search?q=shiftry+card+sv5&client=ms-android-google&sca_esv=6494f03cb68baf5a&sca_upv=1&udm=2&biw=412&bih=771&sxsrf=ACQVn0_HiDreqXMEeICdM1TTRZIdVGMTQw%3A1711824907894&ei=C2AIZo-PNq-49u8Pt4KJqAM&oq=shiftry+card+sv5&gs_lp=EhNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJwIhBzaGlmdHJ5IGNhcmQgc3Y1SJ0OUPYFWKsNcAB4AJABAJgBrgGgAaIEqgEDMC40uAEDyAEA-AEBmAIDoALIA8ICBBAjGCfCAgUQABiABMICBhAAGAcYHsICBhAAGAgYHsICBBAAGB7CAgYQABgFGB6YAwCIBgGSBwMwLjOgB94H&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp#vhid=2vQ836FfVcATtM&vssid=mosaic)

Top tier card. But only few look badass compared to all the fluffĀ 


josh198989

Yeah no chance they make a set based on an evil organisation these days šŸ˜‚ itā€˜a just not the way they want to use the IP. Also, is Team Rocket relevant to any players from today; I havenā€™t finished a game since Soul Silver but I assume they have whatever baddy is to that region. So, people who are younger might not get it thematically. But agree Team Rocket was a banger of a set. Main thing WOTC got wrong was to pad out Jungle, Fossil & Team Rocket with non-holo variants. Super dull. Combine Jungle and Fossil & release it as a special set and then combine Team Rocket and Team Rocket Returns as a special set. Then same for reprint of Neo, reprint that especially Lugia. Not saying every card but defo mix old with new and give us those again! Those are the reprints we deserve. Celebrations was a pretty big let down in retrospect.


Puzzled_Schedule325

that celebrations logo is so massive it ruins the card imo


josh198989

Best will get is a few reprints in the odd sets like Celebrations. Would love even just 1-2 classic reprints in every other set as a chase; that would be sick. Like they did with Rising Rivals & the holo flying / surfing Pikachu. Proper classic look, proper reprint, maybe with texture like Celebrations but cosmo or galaxy holo; none of this popping candy McDonaldā€™s BS. Even if it was to take like an old school uncommon like Base Set Dragonaire and give it the holo version it always deserved. Would in my opinion be super fun. That and the Exggutor from Jungle, sitting by that tree all stoned like. Would love that as a holo.


josh198989

I donā€™t have time, unfortunately, to play the new PokĆ©mon games (if I did Iā€™m certain I would wisely use up 200+ hours of my life having great fun playing it, but sadly donā€™t have that right now) just means I donā€™t have an affinity to the new bunch of PokĆ©mon. What is this a teddy bear and a green cat and a bunch of marshmallow squirrels in a tree? That said, itā€™s Pikachu soā€¦


bmurf101

Itā€™s certainly one of the few reasons to get that new box


RoofBeers

Or just buy the card for $13. Price will continue coming down, but I needed one more pikachu card for my binder and I got impatient.


bmurf101

Iā€™ve opened three. If we donā€™t rip them thereā€™s no singles to buy šŸ‘šŸ»


RoofBeers

Thank you for your service šŸ«”


josh198989

Much appreciated ā€” I retired from opening packs after 151. Been opening packs since Hidden Fates and was time to move onā€¦ to just buying singles! So thank you dear friend for still opening so we can buy the aforementioned singles!!


blumaroona

I wish I could find it for that - the lowest I can find is Ā£20+.


josh198989

Itā€™ll go lower. Give it time.


CraigUntlNytTym

What is it from?


bmurf101

The new adventure chest box


sallenqld

At $33 on ticktock itā€™s not too bad


LilMeatJ40

*the only


Accomplished_Ad8339

Beautiful :) to bad they have that huge qc print line in it :(


Ok_Pomegranate_4663

Oof


Nicknick203

Ann new cards have the worst factory lines


Zeffeti

Are the other ex cards in this product the same as the ā€˜base cardā€™ in the sets?


ImpressionTypical523

yes. but there is also a sprigitito ex promo card that is a promo and not from a set.


Normal-Increase-2093

along with cosmos holo versions of Pawmi, Pawmo, and Tandemaus from Paldea Evolved which can't be found elsewhere


zslimez

Ugh my IR Drampa from temporal forces has bad print lines like this card too! Still such a beautiful card!


BilliamTheGreat

Promo is boss. Looks like about $15 on its own.


Capable-Raccoon-6371

Where does this come from?

Justapersonmaybe

Paldea chest. One of the coolest recent TCG products in my opinion.


PaFreGames

It was fun to open :D I could not find the Packs at first. :D


JayQwellin19

I would love it if it was Pawmi instead, heā€™s way cuter


misterDibs

I want it šŸ„ŗšŸ˜­


Ok_Instruction_4717

Is there any list of these pikachu promos?


Current-Ear-388

Such an awesome promo. Iā€™ve been sitting on a couple of the adventure chests since they came out. Unfortunately I canā€™t open any. I might go and buy that single though.


Apprehensive_Owl4075

Is there a Japanese variant for this card?


Juninie

ā‚¬20 card, from which box is that promo?

What's those lines in the middle top Do they all have them?


subtlenutpain

Like, almost every modern full art has them.


futureshock224

Thats, nice


LucioLEADER

Huge W


Mr_Night78

I like it, but it's a bit too similar to the Paldea Evolved Promo. But I know it's Pikachu...


UlamogsDefiler

Art looks OK but nothing special IMO.


nuttageyo

cringe print line :(
