Opening up 3 packs of Pokemon Shining Legends for Steemit!

in gaming •  7 years ago 

That's right, you thought I would stop opening up Pokemon cards for strangers on the internet? Well you were dead ass wrong, bitch. Because we're back again to open up some more Pokemon cards, this time 3 packs of Shining Legends, boyz! These packs come from a pin collection box that my fiancee and I found at a local shop, though the promo card came bent as hell (Something that is typical these days for promo cards since the american products are packaged stupidly) so I didn't see the point in showing it. She claimed the pin right after opening the box as well, so I just figured I'd open the packs for you guys. So, lets crack into them and see what the hell I can pull from them. 

Here are the common and uncommon cards, minus the energy card which I threw away since what's the god damn point of showing them at this point. I really wish they would just pull them out of the packs at this point, I have so many energy cards that I could probably sustain a fire with them for 2 days. Also, this pack is kind of strange don't you think? Got the base and evolution of 2 Pokemon in one pack, that's not something you notice very often, eh? Anyways, lets see what we got for the rare and the reverse holo. 

Aw, shit. It's @Acidyo's cousin from New York, Mewtwo. Well, pulling a GX of him along with a really cool reverse holo fire energy isn't a bad start at all! Even if I've pulled this poorly cloned version of Mew, like, 4 god damn fucking times now. Cut me a god damn break with all these duplicate cards, what am I going to do with them? Anyways, good start. Lets see what the second pack brings us. Will my luck continue of getting discount Acidyo? 

The common/uncommon cards, this time featuring an assload of trainer cards for some reason. We've also got the magic shroom Pokemon and some fish that would probably be a delicacy in Japan and make most Americans gag. What did we pull for the rare and reverse of this pack you might be wondering? Well shut the hell up for a second and wait, don't you have some patience? Jesus, you mongrels. 

Ah, what a shame. No knock off Pokemon here, just a legendary dog Pokemon holo which I've gotten probably 9 or 10 times now and a reverse holo trainer card. Raikou is sporting a pretty dope dog mustache though, I've got to say that. I mean, it's probably the only fucking thing about him that's still enjoyable after pulling this card so many damn times. Oh well, not a big deal. We've still got one pack to go which will hopefully bring us something better. 

And, here is the final common/uncommon cards from this opening. This time we've got kitty cats, weird fox dog things and some kind of strange fucked up fire worm thing. I don't even know what some of these Pokemon are really, the designs are so fucking weird for them. Anyways, lets see what I pulled for the final rare/reverse holo cards from this pack. 

Heyyyy, that's pretty good! What, you don't like Idubbbz quotes? Well, fuck off then and just enjoy this cool Raichu GX I pulled. I believe I pulled this in the last Shining Legends pack opening I did, but even if it is a double I'll gladly take it. 2 GX's out of a pin collection box is not bad at all, and I definitely feel like I got my moneys worth out of it at least. Plus, I really love Raichu (The original form that this shows anyways, fuck Alolan Raichu) so I can't bitch too much about it either way. Anyways, thanks for stopping by to check out some random ape on the internet opening up some cards. Hope you've got some kind of fun or enjoyment out of it. Appreciate it!

Damn, that is some solid luck. The gx cards look so much more impressive than what we have here in korea, our look kinda crappy.

Really? I haven't seen any Korean cards, only German/Japanese and the USA's of course. What about them is crappy exactly? Just the way the holographic shines? I noticed that the Japanese cards don't look nearly as good as the US's for that reason, in my opinion at least.

Well they went with the lowest bidder I think so the paper and ink quality is just bad. Some of the card Honestly look pixelated, and the holographic parts often don't stay glued onto the backs well.

But that's what happens when it's 30 packs of 5 cards for basically less than 15 bucks. The cards are super cheap so the quality is low. Pokémon Korea isn't known for making quality products.

Ah, man. That's a pretty big bummer. Never knew about that, but it's a shame that they basically just print them from garbage. Really surprised that Korea of all places has such low quality cards when places like Mexico also have just as good of quality stuff that Germany produces.

Your article almost makes me want to start buying Pokémon cards again

Honestly always hated the trainer cards.

I don't so much hate them, but I don't really want 3 of them out of a single pack. Just seems like a bit much, but maybe that's just me. Not unless they want to fuck up and give me 3 ultra rare trainer cards. I'll take that, lol.

Yay, can i have one, just kidding, its beautiful by the way, love it 😘😘😘😍😍😍

Your article changed my mind about those card....that is very kind of you
