I have the electrike 1/2 art as I like to call them in my full art pokedex currently! It’s one of my childhood cards. I do agree it technically counts! I like them so I’ll keep it, but I may use the IR if I happen to get one because shiny. But then it can live in my personal collection binder...

I was worried this set’s IRs were going to be mostly Pokémon that already had IR/SIR/alt art representation. Glad to see I was wrong! We got electrike, yanma, yanmega, ho-oh, and typhlosion! (Shaymin has a full art promo from XY and Lapras has a gallery)

It’s weird that so many Pokémon that already had Art Rares or SARs are getting another one. With Battle partners so many new Pokémon got art rares but this set it’s only Rapidash (who has an Alt art in Sword/shield) and Ho-oh. The others have all had art cards previously. Strange choices.

That IR is GORGEOUS

Other than prerelease, I’m skipping Journey Together anyway. Especially since the allocation numbers are low. The shop closest to me that does prerelease only recently announced the dates for it. I hope scalpers don’t try to come to it just for packs. At this rate I don’t know when I’ll be able...

Probably dropped the team rocket name because there’s more non-team rocket than rocket Pokémon.

Maybe I can get the prismatic products that release later this year with this system. I just want one of each of the two collections coming out later this year.

Do all cards have this dating system? I feel like that may be something to check too.

So many Pokémon got full arts that have never had one before!!! Why can’t these be physical??? I need them for my full art pokedex!

Illustration rare boxes? So there will be more IRs as promos? Interesting.

That Beldum full art is so cute!!! They’re smiling to Steven! I want one so bad.

I am not made of money. I’m a budget collector. This card is going to be extremely expensive out of the gate. The Prismatic Umbreon has already topped $1600. It’s unobtanium for me.

I saw this card and was like “that would be cute for my mew collection.” Then I saw they were going to be extremely limited printing and my hopes were immediately crushed. This is a card I’ll probably never get my hands on. Oh well.

I wish they would do more with the other starters. They do so many things with Charizard. Where’s the Meganium love? I love that cute flower dino. Meganium hasn’t had a card since Sun and Moon Lost Thunder! I’m so tired of Charizard and Greninja. There are other starters.

I tried getting one online. Got it in my cart, ready to check out, and in seconds it sold out and wouldn’t let me hit the order button. Restocks last literal seconds due to bots from what I’ve heard. Absolutely ridiculous. I’ve given up on getting this. I just wanted the sparkly Venusaur and...

I wish they would put more effort into these boxes instead of using stock images for the box artwork.

Looking at the media outside the games, it seems Purrloin is the Pokemon outside of a legendary and zoroark he’s most associated with. In the manga I think we see just Purrloin and Zekrom. So it could just be based on that? Or maybe one of the artists just really loves Purrloin.

Maybe it’s a full art card or an IR with no normal card? But I don’t think N ever had a Liepard, looking through his teams on bulbapedia. He’s had a Purrloin in the games, the anime, and even the manga.

I think it’s hilarious that they put Wailord vertical to fit their entire body on the card. That’s such a good art too I hope I can find one for my collection.

The type hoodie is pretty cool.
