It really sucks that the price of booster boxes has gone up by so much. It makes it way harder to afford for casual collectors like me, and many of your other viewers. So I really appreciate how you do experiments like this to compare which set is better. Thank you for always entertaining me and 2 million other people. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
@@PhantomAnpu Yeah, I want to start collecting Pokémon scarlet and violet, but it's really hard since the packs are more expensive. I really hope the prices go down soon. I'm crossing my fingers 🤞
They are higher but it's also much easier to pull the chase cards, if you haven't noticed people are getting master sets many thousands of packs less than sword and shield packs, so in the end you will most likely actually save money. If you're collecting sealed merch then idk what to tell ya 🤣
Is it though? The price has gone up 20% or so, but the pulls have gone up by more than that. I mean, isn't that the whole point of the video? You get way more bang for your buck.
Scarlet and Violet is such an amazing set, from the pull rates and frequency of beautiful cards is amazing! Sucks about those pulls in Sword and Shield but just proves how great the new sets have been!
Exactly. Sword and shield leaves me depressed. Open 100$ worth of packs to get maybe some vstars non alt cards lol vs scarlet and violet you would get so much more from it. Most sets in sword and shield is more worth to just buy singles instead of wasting time and money on packs
I still think this is the best base set we have ever had in a while . And can’t wait for rest of scarlet and violet block. Deff hope we get to open some paldea evolved together at card party!🎉
It's interesting to see how it seems like it's easier to pull the illustrator and ultra rare cards, but also decreases the value of those special cards! As a collector I am happy because it'll make it easier to get those pulls!
Honestly, I prefer the yellow border because it's been like that ever since I started collecting pokemon. I definitely am satisfied with the illustration rares in SV01, however.
At first I didn’t like the silver borders but it grew on me. I’m super excited for this gen and era of Pokémon cards. Good luck everyone on the pulls this year
this set has to have some of my favorite common/uncommon art works. each card looks beautiful, and not to mention the whole trainer gallery is insane. this set is incredible
Sword and shield was way more appealing than garbage Scarlet and Violet. I just threw all my Scarlet and Violet cards in the garbage they’re not even worth reselling. I hate this new generation I’m totally done buying any scarlet and violet products pure trash
1 of the normal Violet ETBs I got was missing a pack, but out of the 8 packs I got they had some banger hits in 'em. So I was happy. Out of 4 ETBs (2 of each) , 4 sleeved packs and a booster bundle box [45 packs total] I got a Terrastal Arcanine ex (DR #32), Banette ex (DR #68), Great Tusk ex (DR #123), Toxicroak ex (DR #131), Oinkologne ex (DR #158), Doliv (IR #200), Scovillain (IR #202), Skwovet (IR #222), Gyarados ex (UR #225), Koraidon ex (UR #231), Oinkologne ex (UR #234), Jacq [T] (UR #236), Great Tusk ex (SIR #246), Arvin [T] (SIR #249) and Penny [T] (SIR #252). I have some more stuff on the way too, some of my last SV order doesn't get released 'til April 14th. So hopefully I'll be adding more to my binder soon.
Educational. I remember getting excited to pull a V card back in 2020 was something beyond the holo. Wow, how it has evolved with Art Rare's and all that new stuff. Still loving it!
Swsh will always be a classic but sv has my heart with the silver borders. Also gardevoir was my first deck when I was little so I love the alt art line for gardevoir. Loved the vid keep up the great work!
The prices on booster boxes haven’t changed where I live. It may be the fact that we had higher prices all the time so sellers haven’t changed their pricing yet
I think scarlet and violet is gonna win cuz that set is FIRE I mean so is sword and sheild but I love scarlet and violet, you cant go wrong with it, also you got some FIRE pulls. Im collecting scarlet and violet and im trying to pull all of it wich is tough cuz I dont have any money so this booster box would help. Keep up the good work Rev!🔥🔥🔥🔥
If only my gf wasn’t downing me for always wanting to buy cards I’d have more sword & shield. But hopefully I can get some good pulls with scarlet because they look greatttt
I love Scarlet and Violet! However I feel like base set doesn’t have any cards that have crazy value The way some of the sword and shield alt arts hit but I love the EXs especially of the Vs
I had good pull in scarlet violet in my case. In fact, I actually had better pulls in scarlet and violet base set compared to crown zenith. Thanks for the video!
I like the gray border, it's like a new era of pokémon. The silver border era. From Here on out I am going to try and complete every base set, seems like and achievable target
Personally, I prefer the Sword and Shield sets more because of the lack of reverse holos. I still love to appreciate S&V, but I find that the guaranteed in every pack takes some of the excitement away. Also, I miss bringing 4 to the front from the Sword and Shield.
After being spoiled with the pull ratess from sets that had trainer galleries and now Scarlet Violet, it's hard opening any older sets without the feeling of disappointment haha
Amazing video, recently my brother was opining scarlet and violet and got the alt-art Koraidon excited on his first pack. He’s always had luck like that though. Enjoy your content, keep doing what you do!
