Journey Together? More Like Fight Over Packs Together

[@brandonhord8949]

The irony of a set being called "Journey Together" coming out at the same time that Pokemon collectors are more divided than ever is just *chefs kiss*

[@TwicebakedJake]

Poetic

[@thecommoncollector]

Spot on

[@hieinh]

Collectors aren't divided

[@PerfectPrinceX1]

​​​@@hieinh ya so confused by that comment. everyone wants the cards that's all pokemon cares about. dude is tripping talking about divided. you have to be together at one point to be divided .....

[@Calebdevelops]

@@PerfectPrinceX1 nah casuals hate investors

[@nycless]

Official ratio for criticizing the pack arts. I´m so glad we´re back at handdrawn pack arts for at least 1 set. I got sick of all the CGI ones

It's incredible the Pokémon Center hasn't been able to handle bots. Maybe they should implement a lottery ticket system for pre-orders with verified accounts with adresses and payment information

[@MacHacking]

How do u know there is even bots? Got any source on that, or just ur monkey brain.

[@endurancekills]

@@MacHacking bro like wuh, have you not seen the influx of bots on the hobby. Honestly, in every sector where money can be made there is a automation system to increase profits.

[@geobruv3649]

They don't care, they are happy this is happening.

[@funnyclips720]

Saw your photo in pokerev thumbnail!! Niceeeee!!!

[@SkyRaiderA1]

I got extremely lucky I just happened to wake up when they opened pre-orders. Got woken up at 8am by family watching the snow start falling, and I checked twitter and the Pokemon TCG account I follow posts about this set. I scrambled to pre-order and got 1. It took around 30 minutes to get the confirmation email. This is my very first PC ETB, so I feel very blessed.

[@beemstar06]

my first pc etb too! i got very lucky

[@heribertobarahona7695]

Congratzz on getting your first Pokémon Center ETB!!! ^^ For me its the second set I get a PC ETB. Was able to pre order from Prismatic AND now Journey Together.

[@NOV4EVR]

Same! Got lucky for one, will be my very first as well can’t wait to grade promo

[@vexmythoclast9476]

Similar situation here! I was at work and was waiting for a coworker to show up so we could start on a project and was checking Twitter when I saw that they were up for prerelease on Pokemon Center. Managed to snag my first ever Pokemon Center ETB, and the confirmation email took about 45 minutes 😅

[@Stormfire152]

is there a difference between a normal ETB and one from pokemon center? i pre-ordered a journey together booster box and an ETB through a local store

[@RayneDr0ps]

If I could have been first on the pre-order, I'd have some. lol

[@toogoodtobeshoe1748]

This set looks awesome. It’s one of the few more modern sets like 151 and Fusion Strike with an actual aesthetic identity. Honestly love the color and the artwork.

[@YaBoiAlbert_Rips]

Got mine from GameStop! Go before they sell out

[@tetravisum]

I actually think the pack arts are really nice, some of my favorites for sure. Definitely hope to put them in a binder with cards if im able to get some

[@LoganC821]

Had a feeling this year was gonna be a fight for product. Hopefully the demand will die down or the PC will increase production. If not then maybe some big reprints will come along.

[@-dmm]

Something is off. I don't think it sold out. There's no way this product sold out in 10 mins. PE took like 1 whole day. They are definitely holding lots for release date or maybe releasing in waves

[@SoopSah420]

Im shocked i was able to beat bots and scalpers. Got me both an etb and booster.

[@zoomempire9815]

I’m in LA and need to deal with the wildfires. Can’t even have a chance to check the website. The fire almost comes to my neighborhood and I need to run for my life. You guys in the east coast are having a great time with the journey together. But look at me, I fought with the fire at 6am that day.

[@ajames3062]

There was also an error on the product limit for the booster bundles. It had a purchase limit of 25. They since have corrected that and it has a purchase limit of 5 now even though unavailable.

[@dobermangroundzero82]

There probably going to cancel those. They said they were also going to look into addresses and card names payed for multiple times. About time they did something.

[@HarukoSakura]

@@dobermangroundzero82 source?

[@stevegaspar]

​@@HarukoSakurano source just a logical thing to do because it does say 5 for bundles etc and on their ToS Pokemon center reserves the right to cancel orders and they only charge when the item ships.

[@Danzo1212]

​@dobermangroundzero82 I have 3 cards and can use 4 addresses so all good

[@718_JH_Moto]

Y'all crazy asf if you think pokemon gonna cancel free $$. They'll just reprint

[@alexcalixto4422]

The thumbnail is by far the number one funny of my day! 😂

[@Anonymous-pw5kr]

They also removed the listings besides the sleeved packs as of 5 a.m. this morning.

[@KGAStudios]

Even those are sold out now thogh

[@FreeLandProspector]

These packs are 90s retro colors pack arts are 🔥whole set feels throwback nostalgia

[@CarsonAsbery]

sold out so fast and i’m upset😭

[@Zanon]

And welcome to the haaaaaaabby

[@nickcarballo6039]

Im wondering if terastal is the precursor to less IR in sets. Having less IR and then having more SIR makes a set more collectable to people who enjoy ripping as it becomes more difficult. If so that kinda sucks kinda seems like theres a bunch of new people in the jobby if this set sold out so fast.

[@lukashuddleston4232]

Love that title, lol. It's absurd how others can ruin something you enjoy so quickly

[@b3nderman]

I love the headlines! Hahaha, so true!!

[@strictlyoval3474]

I was able to snag 2 ETBs and a booster box about 20 minutes after it dropped. Happened to be right when I woke up and ran to the computer so fast haha.

[@baydencarter3998]

I just wanted one PC ETB :( starting to think this might be worse then the covid surge

[@getbig85]

it is by far😭

[@Cat-e6gc]

❤ I hope that if there’s another set of trainers it’s a few of my favorites. I’m so excited for this whole set, it’s going to be awesome!

[@jlrounds]

Looks like a fun set. I hope I can get some preorders!

[@duaner9392]

Honestly , I picked up a booster box of Upper Deck Spider-Man Renditions. Actually had more fun than with Pokemon

[@Goin4wins]

I just left my local GameStop to preorder the set you have to go instore to do so. Got 2 boosters and ETBs.

[@Theu131]

Are the game stop booster boxes the ones with the promo ?

[@Nysportsbabyyy1234]

​@Theu131 they all have the promos, however the one from pokemon center will have a stamp

[@keyframeclips]

@@Nysportsbabyyy1234The booster box promo isn’t stamped.

[@Goin4wins]

I’ll eventually end up going on eBay to get the PC ETB. I’m just glad I was able to get the set period at msrp.

[@MVPikerMike24]

What ticks me off is up here in Canada, they are still charging tax on the PC website, even though all things Pokemon everywhere else in Canada is Tax free until Feb.15. One wonders what they are doing with all this "extra" profit they are charging inappropriately. I've sent 2 tickets over the last 2 weeks about this fact and have yet to receive an answer.

[@vegas_party_animal7737]

Yeah the fact that everything for the set is now marked “unavailable” definitely tells me that it isn’t sold out. Highly doubt the single booster packs would have sold out instantly like the ETBs

[@MannyG93]

While i got lucky with preorders on this set, the limit on each was dumb. 2 per etb as the new standard. But 6 for the booster box and 25 for the booster bundle. Like what?!

[@Doors067]

I'm good with 2 one to keep sealed the other to open enjoy or sell to pay to keep the sealed free (better option since I'm broke)

[@doyouevenkeegan1108]

Pack art is beautiful in my opinion

[@ev1677]

Yeah he's just bitching about nothing, they're beautiful.

[@khaida_]

Pokemon gotta have a way to deal with the bots

[@threeamigosbackinaction7968]

They're surely going to restock soon! right??!?

[@connorism69]

The pack arts and Booster Box design are great. Expecting it to be underwhelming and with crappy pull-rates though lol. Hope I'm dead wrong.

[@beantownboy83]

This set is releasing right as sword and shield cards are being rotated out of the competitive format. Lots of the cards are meant to replace competitive mainstays. The Pokémon Company would be insane to make this set unobtainable for people playing the game.

[@Anonymous-eo8uy]

i like your title for this video XD

[@YouCanCallMeMich]

UK PC says 'SOLD OUT'......

[@gabrielaspuria]

Thanks for the video! Will this set come with a booster box? And how do we know if a set will have a booster box? I am new to collecting and was told the upcoming set won't have a booster box.

[@TwicebakedJake]

Yes, this is a main series set with booster box

[@individual_disk_936]

It's just not worth the headache with this current boom. I'm focusing on buying Japanese singles and working on a National Pokedex which is cheap on a per card basis. Buying into the fomo isn't worth it, and it's definitely not worth the money to break packs. Singles are always the better option. Patience!

[@user-by9hv4ng4l]

Agree!

[@TheMultigladius]

Journey into my fists son, gotta catch 'em all 🎉

[@thearkbuilder4875]

I just placed a preorder in person at GameStop for a booster box, only $150, highly recommended if you have a GameStop near you

[@Nysportsbabyyy1234]

Same i got an etb on pre-order in person as well

[@HighForever19]

I just called. No pre order yet, atleast in Canada. Pokemon Center Canada has them but it says unavailable. It was easier for me to get Prismatic, lol. Which is wild

[@JustinLewis7326]

Can only preorder packs online from GameStop I guess ETB and booster box you can order in person?

It's actually disgusting that this happens time over time, it is just crushing the hobby and makes sure real people that like to collect are just scalped everytime.

[@jessicamagri8211]

Agreed…I was getting ETBs and packs for so cheap last summer. I was able to buy 151 and Chilling Reign ETBs at Target for MSRP prices. I miss those times 😢

[@ptannous27]

It was up for at least 30-45 minutes before the website crashed. Not 10 minutes. Ppl just assumed that because they saw it so late.

[@robinyang7604]

Nah I was there 15 minutes after it opened and you could get to check out but no further. Spent an hour and half trying to get one booster box but no dice

[@ericmackrodt9441]

151 got me back into collecting Pokémon, but after 6 months collecting I came to the conclusion that, aside from 151 and some specific cards, the whole scarlet and violet era so far is so boring. Sword and Shield was way more interesting. But to be fair I grew up with Gen 1 and 2 so, to me a lot of later gen Pokémon feel like Fan made Pokémon. I know a lot of people love stellar crown and surging sparks, and that's cool if you like it. But I find those sets lame. Also, I don't get why that full art Pikachu is so expensive, the art is so weak imo. Let's see what this one is gonna look like, but it's probably not for me. I'm really looking forward to the team rocket one.

[@JoshuaRichardson_551]

Depends on your finances . 1000$ in XAI508P is 4000 XAI508P if it goes to 50% of ath in 2024 thats a 600% gain. If it goes equal to ath . Its a 1200% gain.

[@nkbd8139]

People having a cry over pokemon centre exclusives when they clearly aren’t the target audience, you do realise you can get the same card thats not illustration rare or stamped with a pokemon centre stamp for cheaper right? 😂
