I pulled a rainbow rare solgaleo outta a dollar store 1$ pack I can’t remember the set tho lol

[@awesomesawcepokemon7856]

Sun and moon base set I believe, I pulled one from the etb from Walmart 😂 nice pull mate!

[@6pac346]

@@awesomesawcepokemon7856 yes that is the set I pulled one in my first Sun and Moon base set booster back in 2017

[@andrewpollard9684]

Did the same w a charizard & braixen tag team rr

[@FrostyOnline]

@@awesomesawcepokemon7856 I opened a sun and moon etb and got 1 ultra rare and it was like 2 bucks

[@shinylugia]

I got 20 packs from dollar store and the best card was Lugia GX RR from Lost Thunder

[@duet53]

Congrats on the return rev! Stoked for all the 10’s!

[@Vdog-hw8dc]

Your collection is exactly what I hope to have one day I look up to you so much I hope to bring to others like you do one day your just amazing we need more guys like you I hope to make a friend who loves Pokémon and collecting like you thanks for everything!!!!

[@nedthenoob229]

Same

[@JakeTheVikingFranklin]

Lemme get that venusaur 👀👀

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

I have the new one and the base set shadowless.

[@SpaghettiGOD64]

@@krotchlickmeugh627 Nice I have the Blastoise

[@RocSandy]

2021 Blew past like nothing! SO Much great memories thanks Rev!

[@Jstephan915]

Love the PSA return videos. I know the OCD in you is happy with the 3 OGs in 10 with sequential numbers 😂 the 1st Ed Red Cheeks such an OG card love to see the nice grade

[@TheVTRainMan]

Nice return. Love them all. That Shining Magikarp is priceless! Probably some of my best moments watching you try to catch that fish with my son. We were crossing our fingers and toes with each pack you opened. A few days later, my son pulled the Magikarp followed by the Gold Mew! He almost passed out with excitement!

[@jamesdrake4271]

Hope I can share these moments with my children

[@tina_marie12]

Can’t wait to see what that Gyarados gold star got 🤩

[@YQMaoski]

Loved this PSA return video, such an awesome return with the prices being so high. I am still chasing after several of those Celebrations cards to complete my binder. And yeah, I don't have a single good quality Greninja from all of the ETBs I opened up, all off center, with print lines, I have one where there's some of that plastic crimping got onto the card. But still, like you said, it's a gold star, how can you not love it. Congrats on the Red Cheeks, that's definitely the holy grail right there. Congrats and thanks for sharing your wonderful memories with us, Rev!

[@Probasaur]

Wonderful PSA return. Really awesome cards. Want to grade my rainbow Lugia from lost thunder so badly... mainly just to have my favorite card encased.

[@davidledesma1331]

Hell yea Rev Congrats! Love all your vids but these graded card ones are 🔥🔥🔥

[@michaelthomas6280]

Nice returns, grats on all the 10s. Love that Umbreon

[@zeadux2095]

Can't wait to grade my umbreon gold star from celebrations and shiny mewtwo gx from hidden fates when PSA starts accepting cards again! they are perfect cards but centering isn't quite perfect on both cards unfortunately. I might also grade my shining rayquaza from shining legends but it will likely not get a 10 as the centering isn't very good

[@jakekebble]

Congrats on the return, all of them are incredible, slightly sad you couldn't grade the gold Snorlax as that's one of my faves 😍

[@NoFaceChase]

Can’t send in cards with the prices being so high but love to see the ones other send in! Great vid as always Rev!!

[@mathistack5075]

Love your psa return video’s keep up the good work

[@GhostSenshi]

That Blue Eyes was so random haha. Ironically though I still have my original LOB blue eyes that I pulled from my booster box when I was a kid. It’s practically pack fresh and I do want to grade it

[@biofonixv2623]

Man, some of these cards really take me back

[@AltiGaming]

Gold Star Gyarados is looking clean for a 3!

[@carcat3654]

No there are so many creases that are not visible and one huge crease in the middle

[@annmarie6675]

Great returns. I'm glad your golden fish was a 10 after searching for it for so long, lol. I love that card.

[@zac91]

Such a risk with the price of PSA right now. Glad you got so many 10’s. Some great cards.

[@kylemcdaid6829]

Why are they so expensive to grade?

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

@@kylemcdaid6829 because PSA made an excuse that too many cards had come in and they were so backed up it would take them years to get through them all. So they closed down their grading until they could catch up. Then never really closed they just made it like $150 per grade and said tuff luck to everyone that wanted to send in their stuff at the bulk price. Now only youtubers and resellers can afford to grade them

[@wizzblizz]

@@krotchlickmeugh627 to hell with psa

[@zac91]

@@kylemcdaid6829 like others have said, they shut down the economy option claiming they would reopen it once they caught up. Average collectors aren’t going to pay $150 a card unless they have some really expensive cards. Back in the day you could send in cards for $10-$20.

[@DragonyCat]

@@zac91 I'm still waiting to send my cards to them, have never done it before. So unlucky. Don't wanna overpay but also don't want to wait for 3 years or something...

[@reedbot6088]

Psa is diggin' in revs pocket, glad to see some 10s though bro!!

[@tomato7955]

Shining gyarados is my fav card too. Love that artwork.

[@kokushibo3110dislikesuwusingle]

The excitement on the Umbreon ! Insane man. Good pulls and good luck !

[@brandonlarson6415]

It puts me in a great mood seeing you open all those 10s

[@thisiskjsworld]

Stuff like this makes me want to send my base set, jungle 1st editions, and fossil stuff 😩 Can’t crack open my celebrations yet.

[@samihaddadin4805]

The Venusaur EX is by far my favorite card out of your top 25! Those promos just hit different and I would say it looks better than most alternate arts considering the fact that it was from 2016. Nice video PokeRev!

[@Hybrid_Gaming93]

Rev gettin me hyped to get my cards back!! I can’t wait!! Let’s gooo!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Davidlyv1]

I am so happy you graded that Gyarados. You were so happy when you pulled it, and I know you weren't sure about it, but that joy is what collecting is about - good call :)

[@waqargh1217]

Awesome returns! I’d love to get my cards graded but I’m scared they’d get lost in transit lol

[@user-xl6og4ik5o]

Crazyy cards wow, what a year recap of your best pulls, shout-out to Rev for dropping$$$ even tho he took some losses 👊

[@robin2385]

Nice Profile picture. No skips for sure

[@Seyyidisme]

Do you feel Beckett or CGS grading is a viable option seeing as how PSA isn't accepting submissions currently or is it better to wait?

[@cloudangelestv8505]

This return was insane!! 🔥🔥

[@Daniel-kl2sd]

PSA returns are the best ahha! Looking forward to this one :)

[@mayson212]

That blue eyes white dragon is such an iconic card 🔥 nice to see some Yu Gi oh love rev

[@joshuaederer7883]

I opened a shining neo gyarados when I was young. Sleeved everything immediately since I was a kid.

[@chepe351]

Bro that red Gyarados :oooooooo

It's funny how is so chill about the all the psa's

28 confuses people 😂😂 I feel you on that

Sequential PSA 10s is awesome on the Celebrations Starters trio!

[@merreck6088]

In like june or something i stopped eatching pokemon cards related videos,i remembered some like creators like leonhart and pokerev (i also watched some others regularly). Now i found a vid from pokerev and started wafching pokemon cards related videos :)

[@hankkim0529]

that full art venusaur art is so good MAH GAWD

[@owcal135]

Hey rev 👋 do you normally hold on to these graded slabs or sell them?

[@frankt7053]

That pikachu in a 10 is just the holy grail of pikachu cards. 😍😍

[@brickcriticextra]

I am now deaf from how loud the audio gets when you say boom but other than that great video!

[@_happii_]

Yo Rev, your voice is so good! I think you would be so amazing at commentating for real! Video was sick though! Debating to grade my cards right now...

[@nicjone654]

Great Video!! You did actually grade one of your honorable mentions (the Leafeon Vmax Alt) It got a 10 Lets Go!!!!

[@k3ith20]

Currently just the psa10 red cheeks Pikachu paid for the grading service plus more, going for crazy money! Congrats Rev!

[@EDGYGhost]

Nice pulls! You should look into TGA, in NH.

[@CaptainCleavis]

Dude, that red cheeks pikachu is gorgeous. I just bought myself a non first edition shadowless red cheeks. Someday ill have my first edition ;)

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

I have a few of them from when they were sold at walmart lol. Im not that old but i feel old.

[@Ahivalaostia88]

That pikachu tho... wow!

[@ArticJC]

For a PSA return these were some great hits!

[@ElitzzTV]

Is there a compilation of you pulling all 25? Would be cool to see if they were all recorded

[@MrCoolwipp]

Your face when you had your moment with that Shining Magicarp.. 😅 Hope it was worth it..

Now I really want to submit some cards to PSA to grade! I have (2) of the Base Set Shadowless Red Cheek Pikachus and I have (1) of the 1st Edition Shadowless as well! I don't think they are 10's but at least MAYBE 7s?

[@red_ninja_9439]

Epic

[@tylercrisler7643]

THESE ARE MY FAV VIDS! nice returns!!

[@pokedadsam9041]

Is CGC worth grading with Rev? Or is it not worth it for a long-term card? I'm getting my first submission ready have a Charizard and about 15 Blastoise and Venusaur.

[@jamesroberts317]

A year's worth of the best pulls

[@nickitnite9682]

the blue eyes was a really cool surprise

[@suzukirider1221]

Man I had the original blue eyes white dragon and the dark magician girl mint condition when I was younger. Wish I knew where those were 😵

PSA handing out 10’s like candy on Halloween. Huge bummer on the metal zard and pika!

Even though it was only a 3 that delta species gyarados still my favorite

I love these types of videos. I have so many cards I would love to get graded. Question Rev, what do you do with all the graded cards? Do you sell any of them?

All of them. He doesnt like polemon.

[@athetrainer6468]

@@krotchlickmeugh627 yes he does

[@gregordrizzlewing7339]

He probably keeps a bunch based on sell on value the cards he likes and the cards people want. I think he also probably tries to get every card once 😂 rest he probably gives away in promos because he’s a nice guy like that

Great Grades!

Nice

[@Woody333]

Another great vid mate, a lot of awesome cards there. Really disappointing PSA stopped grading the metal cards. Hopefully they work through the issue and provide that option in the future

[@krotchlickmeugh627]

Their sealing process destroys the card because the Pokémon company cant make a quality product. Just mass produced shit.

[@shisfn7140]

@@krotchlickmeugh627 or PSA doesn’t have the right sleeves or ways to rank metal cards’s quality

Spa 10 is literally so common now. We need a spa 11 now 🤭

[@sgordon24]

i think what prevented the base set venusaur to get a 10 is the top right corner that has a weird cut shape.... it's not perfectly round and more a kind of oval shaped corner.
