You already know the kids are going to be avoiding the house that gives out Pokémon cards instead of candy

Jamming that pumpkin-stamped Pumpkaboo directly into my GLC deck 0.5s after getting my hands on these. Hell, just reprint my whole deck with the stamps, pls.

This kind of promotion would have been the perfect opportunity to give us a bunch of the pikachu promos with them dressed as different Pokemon or in costumes but that would have made to much sense I guess ??‍

Honestly i think it was a good move. If they had made the set super desirable with chase cards, collectors would buy out everything and few would be handed out during Halloween. It would be the McDonald's promo all over again.

Why grocery stores of all places

Why grocery stores of all places

Because it's kind of like seasonal Halloween candy that you can't eat

And we saw exactly what happened with those, the secondary market collapsed on them because they were made in such massive quantities

Also, as much as I'm happy as a huge Halloween nerd that they're finally doing something related to it outside of Japan, this was a HUGE missed opportunity to not create a new special set featuring shiny spooky Pokemon. I would splooge in my pants if they did a a shiny Trevenant Vmax ?

I'm just glad they're giving out cards that don't suck all the ass.

They had a perfect opportunity to make a summer theme pack with water pokemon, but are water pokemon even popular? And hey, add an inflatable pikachu head beach ball as the stamp too.

120 packs for $15 :O

Edit: i cannot do the maths, i meant 120 cards

I would say grammatical error, not miscalculation.

And I believe the mega-mega pack that has 14 booster and Lucario and Tyranitar promo too. Gotta buy buy buy.
