I need a break from pokemon. A new set every 3 months is so tiring to keep up with

[@clashmaster1016]

Honestly same, I’m only going to focus on crown zenith and what a couple months to maybe even consider other sets.

[@manul_470]

i wouldn't mind if they made sets less often if it meant they were much bigger.

[@franciscocruz5454]

I still want to open lost origins and silver tempest lol

[@michaeldelcastillo7211]

Same. My dad and I made the decision to only chase after full arts and the like. Just cards that we really want. Honestly the 25th anniversary crap that the Pokémon company pulled was really annoying

[@PokeSharkYT]

You think this is tiring. Check out Japanese.

[@HiddenGemscollector]

Wait til you open a booster box. Pokémon really upped the value. Seems consistent and a lot less like gambling. That’s my favourite part about the new set.

[@ExInfamous]

I bought two ETBs (one scarlet, one violet) right off the very front shelf at my local Meijers. Pulled the Koraidon secret rare, the great tusk ex you mention is at #10 spot, and the icing on the cake are the TWO gardevoire ex cards.

[@dr.frosty8480]

No joke I just got my first scarlet pack yesterday and pulled the super illustration rare miriam on my last pack that I had and didn’t realize how rare it was at first lmao

[@toolshed0513]

I hate to say it, but I'm just not excited for anything I've seen with the S&V cards.

[@chrisgraphs1015]

Can't wait as the artwork keeps getting better and better. So many cool cards to pick from.

[@cptgigity]

I like how cards are no longer meant to be played but to resell 😂😂

[@JohnSmith-me4ik]

Personally love playing the game

[@Dartwind]

Should be an interesting set! Would definitely love the Penny cards, she was a great character in the games. Not sure I'll go in for a booster box though - when they were cheapish (80-100) it was great, but over a hundred is a little harder for me to justify. Like I'm doing for crown zenith, I think I'm just gonna wait to prices drop and grab singles.

[@MisterStubstep]

Love the artworks in the set. Better than SWSH Base for sure

[@23evulp8]

Like 10x better than swsh base

[@jodo7814]

Got me 4 booster boxes. Opening two and keepin two!

[@Pikachu-ez1rm]

I def see these prices dropping. Personally, Im not a fan of the Koraidon and Miraidon cards

[@ColtyT33]

Nothing is jumping out at me as a must-have. Will get a few packs but that’s it. Thanks for the content Jake!

[@resolveyeetlord8340]

I opened 7 packs and got a gold nest ball, koiradon ex sar. And like 4 other art rares. I highly recommend running around and talking some smack with your local shops, show them some love and they may help you :D

[@guccibreh9212]

I don’t play or collect Pokémon my niece does but man Jake your content never fails tbh you, cool trainer Ryan (but my mental can only take so much of him but I like him) lmao, and rev greatguys, great content

[@svenmcthias]

Excited for S&V! A lot of great artwork. Thanks for the videos

[@PokeRetroFan]

The Miriam card is expensive now because the Japanese version is crazy expensive because it's a waifu card and English sellers are cashing in. Don't get it twisted. Miriam isn't great or that popular. The cards are beautiful yes but Miriam won’t be the most expensive card at the end of the day. Just people cashing in on the Japanese waifu market early on. I expect the Miriam SAR to drop to as low as $40 soon. Watch this space…

[@justinburrell4979]

Agree, Look at Crown Zenith vs Vstar Universe. Irida is $20 vs $160. Prices always fall unless it is a uber chase card.

[@coffinfleet]

Hey Jake! I would love to see like a collection / storage video from you! Keep up these great videos

[@rderubeis]

is it worth investing in this new set or should i buy older packs if im looking to get good pulls for long term value ?

[@DavePolo1]

I love the Iron Treads SAR. The holo effect especially in Japanese is simply awesome. Great video Jake!

[@jonathanjay2594]

I got quite a few of those cards, I gotta collect them all.

[@kalint29gamer80]

Got the alt art Miriam chase card 2nd pack into the set.

[@dultaging]

You might not see it but... Do you consider primal clash, roaring skies, ancient origins and double crisis vintage?

[@thepackmage]

Are these English prices?

[@pika.journey4817]

It's a pretty loaded Base Set in terms of the variety of different types of cards and mechanisms inside. Does it have those stand out Pokémon though in the set? I think this remains to be seen. The age of the trainer / supporter appears to firmly be here!

[@hhxd4198]

I got the alt art miradon ex in my second ever pack

[@xdraconicgaming5204]

I was originally very upset with their changes in S&V but now I'm kind of excited. I will save so much money not buying packs. I can buy the few nice cards and be done with a set. From the sets that have been revealed so far in Japan, it looks like I only need 8 total singles. Buying those singles will be so much cheaper than getting a booster box of each of the first 3 S&V sets. And 4 of those were in this video. Funny hey?

[@DankDaHerbalist]

Idk why but this block does not have me as interested as SWSH did. Price raises for more shiny bulk dumb trade..

[@matth6707]

Completely agree. I feel like it’s going to be very inferior and in years to come SWSH will be far more desirable

[@pokebeaches1097]

Time will tell for sure

[@DankDaHerbalist]

@@matth6707 SWSH I think will be looked back on favorably even with all the reprints.

[@SpicyRancher]

In comparison to the base swsh set this blows it out of the water imo. It’s only a continuation of the swsh latter half sets improved artwork.

[@mutha_sucka]

@@matth6707 the real question is, what set from SWSH will be the best? CZ or ES?

[@NintendoMania]

This is the first set I'm getting into and im so excited! Got my booster box pre-ordered!

[@resolveyeetlord8340]

Also getting 2 reverses actually makes me want to collect them all and get a full set of reverses, and the silver boarder and the texture of the card looks absolutely stunning in person I was scared they’d look bad, but wowzers

[@HIMO37089]

I agree...but I don't know if a trainer card will hold the top? I think the examples you gave (ex Giratina), that was an alt art pokemon, and if you look at other modern sets, it's typically pokemon focused cards that hold the number one spot. Will be interesting to see on full release though. Thanks for the video!

[@blackbelt171]

The japanese version of the card is ~$800, im sure some people will be buying the english because its a lot cheaper

[@charizard0822]

price will drop but there is a chance it stay there ! Some trainer can be very popular and even more so when it's a good card to play in the tcg (which is the case for Miriam).

[@guest8473]

i hought a scarlet and violet pack and i got a miriam full art secret rare

[@mikeopath6274]

@TwicebakedJake what's the song title at the end of the video called? Thank you

[@ryanariffle]

The pricing on Miriam is absolutely stupid, anyone paying so much for the Japanese version of the card is literally being fleeced.

[@Pikachu-ez1rm]

Right. Thing is people want to sell the English version for the same price

[@blueyespersian]

Unless you’re Japanese, truly enjoy the card or play the TCG.

[@nightflash262]

I want it, but gonna pass for awhile. Save a little then will buy again for a better set.

[@23evulp8]

Sword and shield base was absolute garbage compared to this and you would’ve 2.75-3x your money holding a sealed booster for only 2-3 years . But ok do you bro

[@nightflash262]

@@23evulp8 yea maybe gonna buy for sealed purpose or maybe some singles but that's it. Gonna stop for awhile cracking products open.

[@23evulp8]

@@nightflash262 same.

[@PokecChef954]

Awesome video!

[@feiteng]

its not that miraidon is more 'popular' than koraidon, it's that the former is more playable

[@gimmickz714]

Would be so much better if they made 4 sets per year. Would be better for both tcg and collections

[@totumz4156]

I’m going to stay collecting the SWSH cards I want. Too much going on in the hobby right now

[@quincyq-radio6300]

Very cool 😊

[@daryontube]

This set is not for me. It’s good to have a break so no problem.

[@3rdandOut]

When does this come out

[@amyspahr849]

none of us normal people will be able to open even 1 pack with scalpers so

[@marcorodriguez-8714]

Join local tournaments they give youvcarfs

[@danile3753]

:) very good very nice

[@bilalandcards]

The only problem is that the cards in English feel dull in comparison to the Japanese counterparts. I truly believe none of these cards will be above 100 or even 50 in a few months time. MAYBE only SIR Miriam but that's about it. Personally, my chases are going to be Miraidon and Koraidon SIRs but I'm not going to buy packs and try to pull them, I'm just going to buy the singles when the market stabilizes.

[@gotgotgone]

First set in years that I’m focusing on singles and not packs. Only products I’ve ordered are the Pokémon Center ETBs. Really excited to see this cards in person!

[@SegaDisneyUniverse]

Well with the price of booster packs and other products in this set being much higher, it's probably best to stick to singles.

[@remz94]

great video

[@pikachusbulba9955]

Hi :)

[@jstmakenoise]

nice

[@jamesbenton9793]

This video is a bit confusing because you are showing the Japanese cards yet talking about the English version prices which you should clarify. As the prices of the Japanese versions of scarlet and violet are significantly higher.

[@tomphutseevong5462]

Pokémon is better to get good hits rate because the terrible sns era are not fun a all I love getting hit and enjoying the pulls to me I rather put my money where I actually get my money worth having fun getting hits not get disappointed every time it all comes down to what’s valuable to you

[@watermelonstarfish]

After all the pretty and cheap Galarian Gallery cards in CZ, this set seems pretty bland to me.

[@andyhale3467]

It would be difficult to tell you 5 cards from this set. 20?!?! Not possible

[@Koudey]

Best cards or most expensive from the Set?

[@xDBoomer]

Not enough good hits to justify buying booster boxes. This is a set where you buy singles.

[@josiahcopeland1616]

Super Neat Man 🙌🏼🧔🏽 🤟🏼🧔🏽🤙🏼

[@konvictedkreations344]

Waifu effect still in effect

[@brushben22]

If these are the chase cards in this set, this set kind of sucks

[@whatthepack5]

Wow these cards are gonna be so bad! RIP good Pokemon.

[@jordandudley9120]

🗑🗑🗑 set. The passion is just gone, all a money grab now. Just like everything else

[@3l_Pinxhe_JoE]

Are you excited for this set or nah?

[@blueyespersian]

It’s a good looking set honestly. But Crown Zenith is too good to not focus on. Best set this year!

[@mutha_sucka]

@@blueyespersian can’t even compare Crown Zenith to this set.

[@blueyespersian]

@@mutha_sucka Crown Zenith is top tier. Alongside Evolving skies for one of the best more recent modern sets. That’s for sure!
