I Don’t Stop Opening Packs Until I Get The $500 Pikachu

[@DOOMenstein12]

Ngl, this video shows why I prefer Ando over other opening channels. He's just so much more excited and animated, even just regular ex cards get him excited. Other channels are too busy sulking they didn't get big Charizard pull while Ando is losing his mind over a Starmie ex lol. Great video.

[@bad_cl1pz575]

he also shows the entire pack and not rush to the end of the pack

[@AngusBeefington]

And extremely lucky. Literally hit after hit in this one

[@EthanCastro-f4e]

The amount of regret he felt when he knew he wasn't gonna get pikachu in the first box is funny.

[@peterstainburn2871]

That was definitely 2 boxes at the beginning. More than 36 packs and 2 SIR’s.

[@TBCUC]

Yup😊

[@DraggoYT]

I've been with you since 2016 Ando and it's been the best ride ever! Every now and then I come back to your channel when my pokemon phaze hits and you never disappoint me. Your love for Pokemon and the TCG is as enthusiastic as ever, and has never stopped since I first saw you. You're literally the GOAT of Pokemon TCG KZbin in my opinion and you've never lost that spark. I absolutely love your content man! Thanks for making my childhood 💪

[@LesWheelz]

Same here I’m going through my phase right now

[@ethanoakes-e8h]

My uncle got me into pokemon about 2 months ago because me seeing his first edition psa 10 charizard and his psa 10 dark blastoise just made me get into pokemon

[@evanolivo8822]

Man this set is bringing me back into Pokémon, I haven’t collected since Burning Shadows but seeing you still doing these and never wavering in your positive energy and love for the game is phenomenal!

[@SaifAbdallah05]

lol bro called me broke in every language

[@Ghostfish34-c8g]

Fr how does he afford all this

[@Zections]

@@Ghostfish34-c8guh KZbin 💀

[@t4su4s]

Full art on the first pack?!?

[@samthebuilder1227]

Crazy right

[@t4su4s]

Yes

[@R-Blazer]

That's happened to a lot of people at this point. But it's still a great feeling.

[@Xntropygmr]

Watching Ando is like chugging caffeine, thanks for all the joy and excitement you bring us

[@ChanceDAFull]

Nice video Ando! Loving the surging sparks openings The Milotic actually might be my favourite sir in this set

[@solace_sucks8825]

watching you open Pokémon has been one of my favorite things to look forward too thanks for all the content man!

[@tedwinter4667]

i remember watching you when i was a lot younger, so nostalgic

[@YodazorBS]

I love watching these surging sparks openings 🎉🎉🎉

[@Madi76434]

I knew he would be searching for the pikachu love it

[@R-Blazer]

Considering that he has the biggest Pikachu plush known to man, it's basically guaranteed.

[@LululuLucas-y8o]

lol I thought my luck was bad with 80 booster packs and only getting 1 card from the top ten. Thank you for the entertainment

[@Ttoillrigg]

Bro getting a regular holo rare in this set is rarer than an actual rare card

[@nickloughner7512]

Nah you're just wrong.... I wish you were, really I do, but my bank account says otherwise

[@R-Blazer]

But aren't regular holos in every pack of SV that doesn't have an ultra rare at the end? In turn replacing regular rares?

[@JoshuaWatson-sr6zr]

Imagine if bro pulled pikachu on the first pack!

[@hypersonic2007]

the video would just be a short

[@corymatthews1908]

I've seen it opened in back to back jpn booster boxes on whatnot but in English I feel it's even harder its wild

[@AnthonyMeadows]

Just recently discovered your channel Ando. Dude you're so fun to watch and you're clearly a genuine fan of Pokemon and the TCG. SUBSCRIBED!

[@JeffOwens-i6p]

it's amazing watching people hunting for the SIR Pikachu and how rare it really is some content creators are 300-400 pack in without pulling one. I got really lucky and pulled one on my 15th sleeved pack. Love watching your content Ando one of the best content creators for Pokemon card openings.

[@fairyprxncess]

I love watching your pack opening videos. It's so satisfying if you get a hit 🤩

[@logancolenook]

Some of these arts are some of the best I've seen in a while. They're amazing!

[@JerimihJohnson-o9w]

Bro is the goat at Pokemon packs

[@SpacicMinecraft]

Im glad you pulled the alt art of Jasmine's Gaze! You were extra excited about that one!

[@Idkman57]

I swear that pikachu goes up by 10 dollars every time I check on it.

[@R-Blazer]

I don't blame it; it's a beautiful card!

[@Lepas3243]

This is the only type of video type i can sit and watch for 1-3 hrs

[@blackbullet4254]

Here are some of the music he used in the background which I liked a lot and decided to search for them with the help of the lovely Shazam! 38:21 Ooyy & STRLGHT - Running into 39:05 Martin Landstrom - Turtleneck 39:58 Rocket Jr - Venice Sun 40:46 BLUE STEEL - Vogue 42:40 Sarah, the Illstrumentalist - Care Package

[@oscrwds]

shoutout epidemic sounds!

[@pokemonsheepbunny5254]

I havent finished the video yet but so far this opening is actually insane

[@pokemonsheepbunny5254]

He only had like 2 packs that he didn’t get a pull on

[@MaskdGrindr]

I love the amount of chaotic energy in this video Ando! Showing us what it takes to pull these crazy cards

[@ShepDrawz]

I think Surging Sparks is one of the best Scarlet & Violet sets of all time!!!

[@luckycoin9989]

Omg bruh I’ve been watching this for a whole minute and didn’t realize that this just got uploaded like 6 minutes ago, EARLY

[@huddy1171]

What an awesome video! I think that you should open 2 booster boxes and then go to a trade day and get what ever you have left to complete the set. Great video Ando and keep up the great work.

[@SuparNerd]

Exeggutor low key best art in the set imo

[@denise9234]

As someone who just started making opening TikToks, you’re such an inspiration! Thanks for what you do :)

[@frowning_sylveon]

I love watching these vids there so fun to watch and your reactions to pulling good cards make me happy

[@hichigoshirosaki7536]

I just absolutely love your energy when you open packs, hands down one of my favorite pokemon youtubers

[@TurcDeter]

Been watching you since I was a kid and 12 years later and you’re still as entertaining as before 💪🏻

[@helianthusphoton1178]

was hoping you'd do more of this set! its a fun way to find out about cards i'm not aware of, because not all of the rares are on the official site. Latias is female btw

[@Thomas-is5fw]

Just started re collecting pokemon cards after so many years and came across your Chanel so epic and so much energy I love it

[@rickofhell7274]

Just got back into pokemon. I love the video❤

[@Vroomy1986]

Hi Ando fellow Aussie here. Love you're enthusiasm buddy. Such a generous guy. Keep up the great content 😊

[@Sugerglider-zh1zt]

Love the color of the Alolan exgutour artwork

[@lowcal24]

I remember you from like 9 years ago dude!!!! I had such a nostalgia trip seeing you come up on my recommended again! I used to watch you so much! I even sent you a package for MMM!

[@pPianomMan2332]

Glad to see you doing good bro, been subscribed since 2017, you started my love for pokemon and I got into the games and stuff after your vids, just wanted to come back and say thanks for the memories!

[@fluid_vynie8601]

Bro I remember watching unlisted years ago love to see he’s still ripping packs bro the nostalgia was real watching definitely going to be tuning back in regularly again

[@emmanuelaparicio796]

Love your videos, thank you for the content, your joy when it comes to your reactions or just the joy for Pokemon is so genuine, its a bright point of every video!

[@Dire_Panic]

Love your energy in your videos! Super funny and entertaining 🤠

[@PlushiePower]

i started to binge watch all your videos so much, your energy makes them comfy to watch tbh😭 also i got the Horizons Collection bundle yesterday and pulled the Hydreigon!! i just got the box bc i thought the big card was cool so that was nice lolol

[@JonC-wk]

Your pokemon collections always amaze me 💛💛

[@abrahamgallegos5482]

Yo ando been watching you since I was like 12 yrs old I’m 21 now and still always feeling excited watching you open these packs can’t wait to buy myself some of these

[@geekygirl0333]

Congratulations on the progress, Ando! At this point, I think that trade days and buying singles might have to be the way forward to get the final few cards.

[@johnnytheyoungmaestro]

I seriously love all the dedication and hard work you put into these videos, and I can tell that out of any PokeTuber, you'd want to complete a master set the most. Congratulations on pulling all of those gorgeous cards, and finally securing the Secret Pikachu! :)

[@CollieFlow3r]

That slakoth art is ace!!! Just perfect 😊

[@MuLK3y]

Just wanted to say mate you are a bunch of fun to watch. Only a few weeks ago I decided to start collecting again, last time was Evolutions. Personally I am going after the 151 set for the nostalgia, much like your regret at the first lot of pulls though I am regretting it somewhat given the prices 😅

[@TCGTreasure123]

i love watching Ando's videos:) keep up the amazing videos

[@meeg9115]

I know these videos are expensive as all heck to film but they are my FAVORITE, so thank you for this! It’s so entertaining just watching people open pack after pack haha

[@Kharvtheshinydeino]

Love seeing his reactions to getting hits, makes the video worth watching to see what he will get and his reactions. Great Video!

[@M4NIAC-AP]

Bro I remember watching you with my brother in 2018-2020, you were a big part of my childhood

[@Affinity3301]

Man, the artwork in Surging Sparks are some of the best I've ever seen in any Pokemon Card set. But they're just so expensive 😭 Like booster boxes are out of my budget And the premium on sleeved packs is insane.

[@amiehenry-xs3mg]

Just love the + vibes emitting from these videos! ❤ Our family love your videos Ando! Always hanging out to see if you launch it onto that poor giant pikachu again 😂

[@Thatsnarly]

Dude I love watching you unlisted leaf while opening pokemon packs I swear every time you pull something I pull nothing but when you pull nothing I pull a whopper card keep going man even if your going bank rupt😅 P.s I'm collecting the set as well🤙 and I also have the slakoth card😂❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@rundadrun_catch_them_all]

Easy going videos..thank you Joking but I have the “13 cards”, send the binder and I’ll be happy to complete and take care of it for you! Keep putting out fun stuff! 🎉

[@LivingReactor]

Someone at a card shop opened up a build and battle surging and first pack pulled the Pika, was wild stuff

[@Ttoillrigg]

Surging sparks is a great pack

[@ahuman6901]

You’re right, Milotic is my favorite card in the set

[@TheWiseSocks]

Dude, Ceruledge is literally one of my favorite pokemon! That IR is sooo good!

[@Big1400-mw1he]

Getting more full arts than holos to start is wild 😂

[@kairuri1457]

Woah! It's been YEARS since I've last seen a video from you pop up! Had no clue you were still making videos! The cards in this new set are so pretty though!

[@moesasaur]

I used to watch you as a kid 😆 i’m an adult now. i remember my parents giving me my ipad and i would watch you everytime i ate dinner haha

[@andrealtd6791]

Isnt this a kind of .. compulsive gambling? I want to start a TCG pokemon collection .. but I don’t want to end up like this. Man you have opened almost a 1,000 packages!!! 😂😂😂 , i hope you could buy those with subscriptions and else, so you don’t get so defund! GOOD LUCK IN THE HUNTING hope you complete, that collection!, I bet you will!! 🎉

[@isaacpanoho2321]

The illustration rares in this set are all incredible

[@tanthomas3862]

I really wanted you finish this set with only pulling if you can.

[@peterstainburn2871]

A booster box has a usual pull rate of 6-7 double rare’s, 3 illustration rares, 2 ultra rare’s (full art), 2 ace specs and a chance of a special illustration rare or gold. Occasionally you can get 3 ultra but that replaces a chance of a SIR or gold. You can get less of the illustration rares or ace specs but never seen more than the usual in a box.

[@MRsilvermushroom]

Andos excitement is infectious 😂😂😂😂😂

[@pokemonsheepbunny5254]

Surging sparks is such a crazy set

[@Niscire]

The Surging sparks set is wild !!! Awesome

[@arthurcornw3ll]

This is a very cool idea, I haven't watched for a while but surging sparks pulled me back in keep it up 👍👍

[@ryancorbett9384]

Gold pikachu is harder to pull than SIR pikachu. Its about 1 in 1100 packs which is insane.

[@gerardomartinez9992]

Yup that why I sold the SIR pikachu and bought the gold one.

[@tajjacob2289]

The best bit about the Durant card is it’s one of my top 5 favorite Pokémon and it got a freaking SIR, like so wild that it got an SIR

[@Acolinnit]

dude insane video, I'd open up a surging sparks booster but sell they out at my local target/wallmart so quickly

[@RG_Inferno]

I got the Hydreigon SIR from opening boosters with my friend, I recommend getting a lucky friend to open the packs with you

[@CheetahBots-tf3bg]

Kevin Durant aka the SIR Durant, my favorite card in Surging Sparks

[@louis-1010]

The rainbow borders on the stellar type cards are so sick I’m dying to get my hands on some of them!!!

[@RYxRanked]

Hey Ando pls respond I have a question so for Christmas I’m getting a surging sparks normal etb not Pokémon center version should I open it or not

[@sovereigntysartsgames9123]

I pulled the pikachu out of a booster bundle. I've been reading that the boxes don't have the greatest hits. Your best bet is the 6card bundles. I bought 3 booster boxes and got crap. I get better hits from the booster bundles and my first blister I got a hit in every pack including Jasmine's Gaze. I've been getting 2 hits per box. There was 1 i opened I only got 1, but the next one had 3 hits so it averages out. I've opened probably... around 20+. Try it man! I gave up on the boxes! Bundles are where it's at!

[@violentkingdom2831]

I love your videos, can you do a Lost Origin video soon?

[@plantcatto]

the milotic ex s.i.r is so so gorgeous in person, i nearly cried at the pre-release when i pulled it. its my first ever s.i.r and i will cherish it forever. also got the sylveon ex, which i needed for my sylveon collection.

[@nealmitchell3811]

This set has been awesome. I’ve only managed to buy a few boosters though as they always seem to be out of stock near me

[@pedroriosromero4574]

I just pulled the Golden Pikachu while watching your video🤣 I was so utterly shocked.

[@brandonrathi]

Just curious…what do you do with all of the extra double base cards.

[@Yommister]

probably trades them all

[@dwaynenoname6787]

Always love your videos keep going 🥺💯💯✨🎉🎉🎉

[@nikhelchumber4843]

The art in this set is insane!

[@KenroGaming]

I think it would be cool if you kept all of the tapu koko that you find throughout the year and then have a big shredding video in honor of the wrath of ando

[@YetAnotherMarriedCouple]

That traaaaaade Ando. Omgoodnessme. Good on ya mate! ❤

[@R-Blazer]

"Ladies and Gentlemen, the concept is simple!" Someone's been watching a lotta Failboat.

[@CharlieBrohl]

Great bulbasaur shirt Ando!! I want one

[@sharongaber600]

The full arts in this set are so pretty

[@Grahamn1105]

My 6 year old is just getting into collecting Pokemon, would love to help him add some cards to the set. Awesome video man, that pikachu is crazy cool.

[@danny.2ss]

This set is so good I wish it wasn’t always sold out

[@aniolgarciairiera7899]

Awesone video love every bit of it (i only watched the first 3 minutes). Keep that amazing energy!

[@sixers_ross]

Keep making amazing content Ando. Much love from the U.K. 🇬🇧

[@brodyking3451]

My local target and Walmart only have individual pack, NO etb's, NO, 3 pack blisters, and NO 6 pack booster bundles. I had to get a etb online. Should I open it or keep it for the value in the future?

[@retsiMeulB]

These videos are always so entertaining lol
