That flareon is nuts, I never pulled it back in the day when I was getting all the mythical collection boxes. I love this set

[@kcg6161]

Oh yeah my son opened Generations when it came out. That wasn’t too long into his Pokémon journey! 😀… He didn’t open enough of it to get those hits though!

[@superedwardcool1035]

Did he get any good hits

[@kcg6161]

@@superedwardcool1035 He didn’t get any of the big hits Rev opened up today. But I remember the M Charizard EX (which I believe was from that set because it was the X version) that he sold back to the local gaming store so he could buy more cards. He had a few of the other Mega’s and EX’s from the set too I think but not ones worth hundreds. 😀

[@superedwardcool1035]

@@kcg6161 wow that sounds like a nice card though

[@superedwardcool1035]

@@kcg6161 Also i have the mega charizard ex X from evolution

[@kcg6161]

@@superedwardcool1035 Nice! He sold a lot of his earlier cards before getting back into it. I can’t remember what his big Evolutions hits were. If he remembers I’ll have him comment here!

[@JamesGour]

Those pulls were sick. Wish generations wasn't so expensive I'd love to open it up myself

[@ThePokeCouple]

Same here!! There is a store selling this box for $1000 Canadian!!!

[@JamesGour]

@@ThePokeCouple Thats ridiculous. The prices of collection boxes are crazy.

[@toddcarroll5747]

Generations definatley way better then crapbrations

[@tcales9180]

I wish I could afford half of the stuff he opens

[@mariacastellon4817]

Pokey ram Pokémon card packs can you give me some

[@ToonDom]

Pulling and opening older cards like this is awsome! wish i could open myself but im happy watching you!

[@southernhypecollects3670]

I’ll never forget how abundant Generations were on shelves. My nephew and I opened and collected so much. One of my fondest memories of ptcg

[@Swoffados]

Anyone else think rev's luck goes through the roof when he has the alien luck shirt on or just me 🤣🤣😃

[@a-b0t633]

That box will always hold a special place in my heart. I had taken a 1 year hiatus from collecting and this was announced right around the time I was ready to get back on the horse. I was away from home to train for my job and on release day I drove the van I was responsible for to Walmart to pick it up and keep it safe in my dufflebag until I got home to open it. What a blast opening that box. I pulled a lot of good cards.

[@greggoryz10]

Definitely crushed this opening man, made generations look like nothing and all from one box omg! Nuts! 🔥

[@Clenvy]

The new touch with the package/item looking like it fell/teleported into your hands is cool.

[@Kasha0211]

I wish I had collected when this set was a thing. The cards from the radiant collection are amazing I may have to buy some singles. I started with celebrations but I am happy that I was able to score an ultra premium collection off the pokemon center today. Hyped to get it for retail!

[@MrSuperduper5000]

I honestly never understand why these sealed products are so expensive. You can literally buy the Flareon and Charizard for less than the cost of 2 sealed packs! Super dope opening though. Congrats on those fire pulls.

[@samwisegamegeek]

Because they are sealed..... There are only so many sealed copies in the world.

[@xaq343]

This comment is bad lol.

Not in front of pokerev lol

It's worth just south of 709 today lol

[@RocSandy]

Ahh the memory's of generations.....I love that set

[@JaminCollects]

I still really want to open this set! Where was I in 2016!?

[@dr.d-ray]

Generations was an amazing set and that statue is freaking amazing. Thanks for the video Rev!

[@Greatglenfiddich99]

What a sleeper set, definitely something I never hear about or ever see and unfortunately it was before the time when me and my boys got into the tcg. I didn’t realize there was radiant collection cards in as the subset. The artwork is just pure 🔥🔥🔥 Thank you rev for bringing generations back to life!!! Grats on the epic RC pulls!

[@wesleyb1458]

The artworks on this set are incredible and the hits are beautiful! I had never seen this opened before 🔥

[@smithyengs]

Love generations! This set got me back into collecting. Still have some sealed mythical collection boxes!

[@frishdaw]

This is why Generations is such a good set, amazing pulls!

[@farfetchd3889]

That's so cool I've always wanted to open some generations but never bought any gonna have to pick some up

[@ThePokeCouple]

This was an amazing opening!!! Awesome to see this set opened again!!

[@danordonez844]

I also got pulled back into collecting with this set and XY Evolutions and I might have to look for this box online

[@simonholden5280]

Amazing set 1st time seeing this collection box opened and wow well worth the high price tag great video rev killing it again 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mihaelasantia1371]

This vid is fire!Worth to watch it!Thank you rev for posting this.

[@draymond_targaryen6909]

Amazing pulls. Really hoping there is this kind of excitement around celebrations in 5 years. Was able to order a Celebrations UPC today and it arrives tomorrow

[@biomocs]

I've only opened 2 packs of Generations (1 of the Mythical Pin Boxes) and pulled a RC Froslass and the full art Sylveon RC. I wish I had bought more though before the packs got expensive :(

[@bryanthinonojosa7907]

Never open that packs before it’s crazy all the cards you mention to get you go them lol love the art work on the cards

[@andrewjaitner]

Oh man, I am looking for those 2 promos , love the generations set , almost complete my master set

[@realcharlebois8719]

Congratulations on the pulls REV! So fun to watch, LOVE your reaction on that last pack!

[@infinitedarkk]

It’s cool watching boxes being open that you have never seen before

[@brandonshehow]

Those were some great pulls. It's nice seeing you open something for yourself and not giving it away.

[@618thrift]

I remember buying this box at target on black Friday for $20 off of retail. It was so much fun opening! Still have it all!

[@davidhickey6882]

Man I never thought you could ever get that lucky, you crushed that opening, definitely worth the 500$

[@lottstosea]

Great pulls! Same consensus with most of the others, if packs weren’t so pricey I’d love to tear into some

[@Ozzydiecasthunter]

Wow great hits in that box! Well worth opening it !! Didn’t get a chance to open this set looks awesome though!

[@cloudmtl]

Sick pulls bro! Never get to open these up so it's cool to see some of the cards opened up!

[@panchopolarbear]

What a stacked box!! Holy!!!! I’ve never opened Generations before.. the cards look super fire

[@dripway868]

14:55 my friend who recently passed away gave me the pickachu card about 2 years ago, rip Aidan W.

[@fenner1986]

I just got most of those radiant collection card back from CGC, definitely worth grading them. That pikachu RC is one of my absolutely favorite cards, along with the pikachu ex promo from the same era

[@quafee]

I opened this when Generations came out. Such a fun box. I've opened up this box and the hidden fates ultra premium collection box. I've yet to be able to get my hands on the celebrations premium collection box.

[@danleonardoyo3946]

I’m jealous of the hidden fates one lol I’ve only opened the celebrations upc, wish I was collecting years ago

[@quafee]

@@danleonardoyo3946 Evolutions got me started back again and I've just grabbed some things here and there. I opened up one of the hidden fates upc and i still have one sealed. Also I have no idea how PokeRev is assuming that Illustration Collection Book is worth $150. I've seen a recent listing sell for $29. I still have mine sealed since I had no desire to open it.

[@sangawrsawmling28]

What are the odds.

[@rockblockstudio]

@@quafee Same. I think the Japanese copy is expensive because it comes with 1 or 2 promos unlike the English so he probably saw those listings

[@ryuuthefrog3775]

Ohhhh, that's where my friends got all that stuff! I was always wondering where those fullart promos and illustration book came from. I have one of the little figurines of Mew and Mewtwo, one of said friends traded it to me. What cool boxes. I never knew they existed.

[@ChrispyDriver]

I have not collected cards in years but the celebrations cards were just to cool to pass up. Now I'm addicted again lol. Would love to get my hands on some of those generations packs too!

[@nevercold808]

What an amazing box! Congrats on the bangers. I've never opened this set... Got into the hobby too late.

[@snowylilacs7952]

I opened this when it came out. It too brought me back into the game. I had totally forgot about most of these cards or didn’t know a whole hell of a lot about the set in general. But damn epic pulls!

[@luigionvacay4287]

Generations was such an amazing set! I still have my radiant collection charizard that I pulled when I was a kid!

[@bushesaregreen5857]

When I was a little younger I got 2 of the elite trainer boxes and the Charizard box so I opened a lot of these. And I have a lot of the rarer cards and this brings back so many memories dude I loved it.

[@JD-oe8lk]

Damn Rev you were on another level with those pulls. I need some of that luck. That was one of my favorite opening videos you’ve done. Keep it up and I wish I had gotten back in when came out.

[@totallynotredx4347]

His excitement when he gets hits is what makes me love watching his videos huge fan started collecting pokemon cards after watching his vids

[@jirachipl8193]

Those today prices are sick. I remember getting like 3 of those Sylveons, couple of Pikachus's Charizards and Flareons as well and I treded them for some other crap. They were like 1-3$ value per piece that time.

[@zacharymueller4234]

That butterfree holo is actually an error bleed which was oddly common for that card in this set. Cool hit

[@jmitchcomedy]

That was a great opening. I’ve never opened Generations before but now I’m definitely tempted.

[@jwar3628]

Bro your pulls are insane the past few videos. Makes me want to break open my Kanto Power box

[@emilyrhodes9770]

Wow I loved this opening! I never opened Generations but I had a ton of fun with Celebrations 😁 I love the art of the Radiant Collection!

[@s-king3635]

This set gives me throwbacks to legendary treasures, it might just be my favourite English set in the Pokémon tcg

[@betoturista4388]

How is this possible Rev!!!!!!!! Hahah congrats my guy ! This was awesome 🤩

[@brittdaycake]

This is one of the craziest openings I’ve seen!! Pulled nothing but fire 🔥🔥

[@AmieonGo]

OMG THAT FLAREON!! I can't even! I have never opened up this set

[@WBsteve]

The box is sweet, and I wish I started collecting again earlier so I had a chance to open some of these packs at a decent price. I have never opened these packs and I probably never will.

[@jakekebble]

Those artworks are so nice, wish I could get my hand on Generations, keep the content coming Rev!!! 🙌🏻

[@Probasaur]

Awesome opening. This is one of the boxes Ive wanted since ive seen it a couple years ago. This is truly a premium collection. One day I will find some generations packs and open them.... one day! 😁

[@AxiGaming2026]

That Jirachi RC card last sold for $1,000 on ebay, but that was back in May 2021. Still, nice pull!

[@Voorhees2002]

What an opening! Never opened or seen this set being new to Pokémon cards. The 2 mews and actually the reverse Gengar were my favs lol.

[@Taylor.Nicole]

Back to back to back to back!!!!!! Killed this opening and I love radiant collection

[@epicbssgamer5496]

I love thuis pack damn! You know its good when you upload bro!

[@mathswampman]

If you're a fan of the radiant collection, you should check out the Japanese equivalent Pokekyun (CP3)! The set is only the cards from the radiant collection (32 cards), but they're way better looking, and the quality on them is insane.

[@carsongxd]

Ummm no. That isn’t pokemon.

[@mathswampman]

@@carsongxd What are you talking about?

[@MisterStubstep]

Thanks for opening! Never seen one of these before

I love the radiant collection set. Especially from legendary treasures. I wish I had completed the set when it was easier to do so.

[@unlucky9586]

Straight freaking fire! Hope you get them graded and show the grades

[@rbikidportland]

These premium boxes are so dope 🤩

[@trifecta9181]

I opended up generations when it came out. It was great for me as a younger kid because the mythical boxes were guranteed an EX which made kid me happy that I pulled something

[@samihaddadin4805]

Generations has crazy pull rates! I almost completed the sets with a lot of the big hitters! Nice video!

[@selinarochelle]

That pack luck was insane!! Congrats 👏

[@Nido123]

I only ever opened two Generations packs, and I got that Flareon ex full art out of one. It is one of two ultra rares that I still have from my original collection of cards, because I stupidly got rid of around 40 other ultra rares I used to have.

[@Addictedtocollecting01]

I own both this anniversary box, and the other one you showcased...I opened both of them lol...definitely worth it lol

[@feardrop6570]

Wow this opening was INSANE!! Brought a smile to my face :D

[@TheDragonGaming775]

I have a ton of those pikachu cards, I bought a bunch of them back when the set came out and they retailed for like $20 each. I can't wait to get them all graded

[@Shim_Shack_Studio]

I pulled a lot of what you just got except for the Sylveon. I'm glad you pulled the chu man! One of my favorites. I think I have a few of them along with the Zard. Such a fun set man.

[@jscottgp2011]

I have that book. I have those 3 deck boxes that are inside. I have cards from the generation set…but those promos and that figure don’t look figure. Were there different variations for the 20th anniversary box sets?

Probably the best generations video on KZbin. 🔥🔥🔥🤣
