Our set sources its cards from Japan’s The Glory of Team Rocket, Heat Wave Arena, and the Marnie and Steven decks. It also contains the...

Scalpers about to have a FIELD DAY with this set. Too bad that the set is mid imo and I can just get most of the singles I want in Japanese lol.
 
People that call this set mid are insane or blind
It is. I have no intention of opening it, and most of the cards I want are from heat wave arena, not glory of team rocket.

and yes I can get product just fine, I chose to skip the set myself. Watching the chaos unfold for this set is gonna DEFINETLY be a interesting thing to experience.
 
Yeeeeeeess the TM Machine! That's going to make tool discard decks more consistent. Electrode, Melmetal and Garbodor finna pop off. That would go nuts with Rotom VSTAR if it were still in format.

I have my list of must haves! Singles all the way for me, but good luck to those who can afford to purchase and are able to access product :D
 
Making Team Rocket's Mimikyu one of the pre-release/build and battle promos in a set without any Tera Pokemon certainly was a choice.

I am not complaining considering I am a big Mimikyu fan though, having one of the Pre-release promos only attack literally do nothing in the format seems like an oversight.
 
It is not (just) scalpers who are charging 150-200% retail on this set. You can't order ANY product for this set from your normal retailers without seeing a VAST markup on ALL products.

I blame Pokemon for this, all because of the Eevee set. They "said" they were going to be printing "plenty" of product and yet every retailer cannot get a full shipment, for this set as well as Prismatic.

And so, because of the supposed demand, every retailer is marking up prices much too high, because THIS set will NOT have anything of value when compared to the hyper inflation placed on the Eevee evolution IR cards.
 
First time in years that build and battle doesn't have alternate art . . . . First time since the last set as journey together didn't have alternate art in build and battle

Journey Together's Prerelease Promos WERE alternative artwork.
