Reshiram Swanna Mienshao my favs got such stunning artwork 

And get another Charizard, Pikachu or Mewtwo? I rather have any other Generation.Dang. Imagine if they did 151 this way. No way this isn’t the best set of scarlet violet. Awesome to see so many underappreciated pokemon get their day
‘Move out of the way prismatic evolutions’ ahhDoing a master set is gonna be brutal af. Every mon has a secret rare AND poke/master ball reverses? Dang
Hilda and N are going to be the most expensive.Reshiram and zekrom sir cards are 2 coolest cards of the era IMO. If there are only 5 sir cards per set maybe they won’t be that expensive either
We didn't know, but they did. They didn't predict a massive boom after surging sparks and they weren't just gonna stop and take back everything they had planned for the set. Art commissions take months to complete and that includes the bulk art, full arts, irs and sirs. And especially considering the fact that many arts are from the same artist they most likely started doing illustration rares even before the set got registered, so blaming them and being mad at them for releasing this now during the hype is pointlessYeah but we didn't know until a couple months ago that every Pokemon was getting an AR or SAR. Or what the pull rates were going to be. Now we do.
Let's forget any of the hype, even though they look extra clownish releasing a set like this right now.We didn't know, but they did.

maybe the strat is to just buy as much as possible a short time after initial release because prices will def go up quickly and not comedownEveryone hoped the same with prismatic yet here we are. Though that's not to say I disagree that it'd be amazing, I just personally wouldn't count on it
I might be missing something, but where did you get the pull rates from? If anything, what we have seen been pulled from the factory production line the pull rates seem pretty sick. And there are illustration rare god packs too. I might end up having to eat my words but I really don't think they'd release such a massive set just for it to have the usual 1/12 pull rateLet's forget any of the hype, even though they look extra clownish releasing a set like this right now.
TPC knowing this set was going to have 170 chase cards and 800 cards to master and then barely changing the pull rates is inexcusable no matter when this set would have released. I don't know why this is such a hot take to everyone.
And then oh yeah TPCi and the English side are even more of a burning dumpster fire. But we are putting that part aside. It's still bad.
