You mentioned people saying their ETBs were either duds or completely loaded, this has been my exact experience. Purchased 2 from Target near me, the first one was pretty bad only 1 V and 2 trainer galleries. The second was absolutely loaded - secret rare Pikachu, Radiant Charizard, Elesa's Sparkle, Textured Grass Energy, multiple Vs and Galarian galleries and full art Galarian Gallery trainer, couldn't believe it!
@@jodo7814 Really?! That's unfortunate. I have 2 alts that are cut that way. Not super noticeable but if you really look you can tell the border is thicker on the top than the bottom on one side and vice versa on the other.
You should line up all of the pulls that you get along the back wall lean them up against the back of the wall so we can see everything that you've pulled. Either that or show all the pulls again at the end of the video.
That Ditto GG is so so cute. I still searching for it. ❤️❤️❤️ You are so lucky to pull two in this video 🥳. The Absol card is also a really cool card. I loved watching the video ❤️
My wife and I have been opening regular ETBs and keeping the Plus ETBs sealed; actually, our last ETB we opened only had 9 packs and it was kind of a dud until the last pack when we pulled Mewtwo VSTAR!
The etb plus I bought was just ridiculous. 12 packs 12 hits. 1 gold, pikachu secret rare, 4 GG textured, multiple untextured GG, and 2 charizard vmax. Not to mention friend in hisui, and 2 other vmax in the rare slot.I bought another one , but I don't think I'll open it bc I feel like I'll never get that lucky again.
Great video, as always! Love your vibe & chill attitude in all your videos. Love the Crown Zenith from what I’ve been seeing. I’m waiting to get another character box of CZ before I open any packs.
You mentioned trade for cards twice, and I wanted to ask where do people go to trade? I assumed all that meant was selling on tcgplayer but I wanted to ask :)
Opened my 1st CZ ETB, no big hits, but honestly i like the extra stuff inside, and your vid convinced me to pick a PC CZ ETB! Keep up the great content Kurt!
Zacian v, entei V and regigias Vstar Galarian gallery are my chase cards art wise, allready pulled hisuian samurott Vstar with snorunt on the art! somehow i alwase loved snorunt, but the art and the colors on this gg samurott x snorunt are insane. anything else is bonus for resell :)
Nice comparison! I've opened 2 regular ETBs and 2 of the Pokemon Center Exclusive ones. Overall I felt the pulls were pretty comparable but the extra packs from a set that doesn't have a booster box available sure was nice
Are the sleeves in the plus version still gold on the inside? No one slows the inside of those, but honestly I like the regular sleeves more either way
I still haven't been able to buy Crown Zenith!! It's been sold out everywhere locally since release, but it ended up helping me since I had to buy something else, so I bought a Darkrai Tin and ended up pulling the Moonbreon! It's on my channel too!😭
I’m trying to finish a binder to bro and I wish you the very best of luck finishing the binder brother!!!!!! I have a long way to go but I have opened 8 regular etb’s so far and 2 regidrago boxes and today I’m about to open 2 Pokémon center etb’s I’m excited for these ones I didn’t know they came with different stuff inside so I’m happy
Kurt save some pulls for the rest of us! lol! j/k No gold cards yet, but did get my personal chase this set (Hisuin Zoroark) . If anyone is in the area the Dollar General in Citrus Heights had quite a few Vivid Voltage Sleeves and some really clean Rebel Clash / Fusion Strike pin sets a few weeks ago. Great video as always!
I pulled the Mew Two VSTAR GG (My main chase), as well as two Pikachus. I am content with my pulls, and probably won’t open any more ETB’s, just probably will buy one to keep sealed, and I still will probably open the tins when they come out.
Those were some pretty fire ETBs! I'm kinda starting to think production really messed up the spreading (collation?) of hits with the PC ETBs. I've seen a lot of people double up on the same hits from the same ETB and I know 2 guys from work who both bought 2 of the PC ETBs. One got 2 of the gold Giratinas (one in each ETB) and the other dude got the Arceus in one ans Palkia in the other. It may just be coincidence or an actual first wave bumble but it's very strange.
Pullrates are 100% the best in years. A galarian gallery is 1 in 3 - gold card 1 in 80 - and that Pikachu is roughly 1 in 120. I feel like they're more in line with what vintage cards had for their special cards. My first ETB had two gold cards (Pulkia and Diagla) and Cynitha's Ambition! It was madness. My sister opened hers at the same time and she still got some amazing cards, but I think my epic box was so awesome that she just felt disappointed. xD
Luckily I pulled 5 gold cards after 88 packs. Was able to sell a duplicate arceus for $115 and a duplicate dialga for $70. Not very often do you get your money back in an etb… but I haven’t pulled the secret pikachu yet!
I open my Pokémon packs upside down it actually is easier to open if I carnt open my packs from the top then I do it upside down I find that you get more hits from crown zenith collection boxes but I must say it’s a pity that Pokémon company not bring out crown zenith booster box because I don’t think they make it easy for collectors card stores. Especially when the world having it hard with everything going up in price my card collector store didn’t get sent crown zenith ETB boxes or collectors boxes of day of release they had to buy some from another store just to have some in there store for customers . My question is will Pokémon company bring out crown zenith booster boxes in the next few months I hope so I hope they do bring out a crown zenith collectors chest and a scarlet and violet collector chest tin . Love you4 video and watching your excitement lol from Kate last 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
From what I've seen from most cases, about 8 are pretty stacked and 2 are duds. And when I mean stacked and duds, its on the Galarian Gallery cards because thats what people are hunting.
You’ve definitely been very lucky on your pulls. 👍🙂 Unfortunately for me, not so lucky in multiple ways. 😂 Half of my zenith preorders got lost in the mail. The half I did opened were a bunch of dud boxes. Opened 3 etbs …2 were dud boxes. Opened 7 Regi boxes….6 were dud boxes. Though my luck isn’t quite there, I still love this set. 😂😊
Because it's spelled and pronounced just like the og TV/electronics company named Zenith and that company was always pronounced Zee-nith by everyone. Zenith was bought out by LG Electronics in 1995. It had been a well known electronics brand name since the 1940s. But because I'm familiar with the Zenith electronics name it actually annoys me when people pronounce it Zen-ith when talking about this set.
600 packs and i haven't pulled the zard vstar yet have 11 golds and 5 pikachus...actually only pulled the 9 card image pikachu once...pull rates are super weird
Lol people complaining about they didn't get hits from ETB's lol 😂 probably cause they don't play the card game you all are pulling so many good cards you don't give credit for too worried about ultra rares and above
You mentioned people saying their ETBs were either duds or completely loaded, this has been my exact experience. Purchased 2 from Target near me, the first one was pretty bad only 1 V and 2 trainer galleries. The second was absolutely loaded - secret rare Pikachu, Radiant Charizard, Elesa's Sparkle, Textured Grass Energy, multiple Vs and Galarian galleries and full art Galarian Gallery trainer, couldn't believe it!
I've noticed that the care put into this sets print has been pretty on point! Hope they can keep that up in Scarlet & Violet.
Except for dialga. Cards are printed at a tilt lol
@@jodo7814 Really?! That's unfortunate. I have 2 alts that are cut that way. Not super noticeable but if you really look you can tell the border is thicker on the top than the bottom on one side and vice versa on the other.
Haha I kind of like that you open the packs upside down. It's different and it's what makes you you! Love the openings.
I will never get tired of watching Kurt opening Crown Zenith!
Stumbled upon Kurt going down the TH-cam rabbit hole. Easily in my top 3 of pokemon streamers. Much love!
Thank you!
Congrats! More great pulls, more additions to the binder!
Thanks Billy!
You should line up all of the pulls that you get along the back wall lean them up against the back of the wall so we can see everything that you've pulled. Either that or show all the pulls again at the end of the video.
I used to do that but people were just scrolling through the vid to see the pulls ☹️
I also bought a regieleki v box yesterday, and pulled the gold secret rare Giratina!!!
I haven't opened any crown zenith yet our one Walmart got stock but very little and went very fast waiting for another restock amazing video
That Ditto GG is so so cute. I still searching for it. ❤️❤️❤️ You are so lucky to pull two in this video 🥳. The Absol card is also a really cool card. I loved watching the video ❤️
My wife and I have been opening regular ETBs and keeping the Plus ETBs sealed; actually, our last ETB we opened only had 9 packs and it was kind of a dud until the last pack when we pulled Mewtwo VSTAR!
Dope! I got Mewtwo vstar on my second etb with some first pack magic. Such a nice card!
So just saying if you wanna float a pikachu this way it would make my day lol
The etb plus I bought was just ridiculous. 12 packs 12 hits. 1 gold, pikachu secret rare, 4 GG textured, multiple untextured GG, and 2 charizard vmax. Not to mention friend in hisui, and 2 other vmax in the rare slot.I bought another one , but I don't think I'll open it bc I feel like I'll never get that lucky again.
Great video, as always! Love your vibe & chill attitude in all your videos. Love the Crown Zenith from what I’ve been seeing. I’m waiting to get another character box of CZ before I open any packs.
Also can we see how the binder is going please dude
Looking at getting a binder for my sets what one would you recommend
I’m a fan of the Vaultx 12 pocket binders 😃
Great pulls Kurt! That last pack magic, Adaman is my lil brothers chase actually. Thanks for the content!🔥🙏🏼
I ordered 2 of the plus boxes can't wait they arrive Monday.
Good luck on the pulls!
When you and Kanto Kurt Both Post Same day, same time .. but his video is so much better . 😩😩 big fan! Love the video!!
It’s always fun watching things you can’t buy😂
You mentioned trade for cards twice, and I wanted to ask where do people go to trade? I assumed all that meant was selling on tcgplayer but I wanted to ask :)
I trade at a local card shop or at conventions 😃
If you don't put them in the binder what do you do with them?
every card in the set goes in the binder just in an order that I prefer.
Opened my 1st CZ ETB, no big hits, but honestly i like the extra stuff inside, and your vid convinced me to pick a PC CZ ETB! Keep up the great content Kurt!
Thanks James! Good luck on your future pulls 😃
Two Pikachus?! Your luck has been insane lately!
Very true.
Zacian v, entei V and regigias Vstar Galarian gallery are my chase cards art wise, allready pulled hisuian samurott Vstar with snorunt on the art! somehow i alwase loved snorunt, but the art and the colors on this gg samurott x snorunt are insane. anything else is bonus for resell :)
Nice comparison! I've opened 2 regular ETBs and 2 of the Pokemon Center Exclusive ones. Overall I felt the pulls were pretty comparable but the extra packs from a set that doesn't have a booster box available sure was nice
I’m just getting back into Pokemon collecting, how do you get the exclusive ones?
@@timmymcgypsy6234 the pokemon center sells the elite trainer plus box, tbh i'd collect the etb plus and open the regular lol
Are the sleeves in the plus version still gold on the inside? No one slows the inside of those, but honestly I like the regular sleeves more either way
Yes both sleeves are gold inside
I've still not been able 2 open and zenith, never so excited for a set before 😞 would like 2 c a video where u go trading some time
I’m looking to trade my extra Arceus v star for some of the cards I’m missing from the set
What do you do with your bulk?
I trade it to a local card shop for sealed products or singles
Wow that Hisuian Samurott is such a beautiful card and great videos Kanto Kurt Keep it up!!!! 😃
I ordered 4 of the etb plus from pokemon center, I pulled 2 palkias out of one box!!!!
**2 gold secret rare Palkias to be specific lol
@@kaitlynbogucki6800 damn that's lucky
I still haven't been able to buy Crown Zenith!! It's been sold out everywhere locally since release, but it ended up helping me since I had to buy something else, so I bought a Darkrai Tin and ended up pulling the Moonbreon!
It's on my channel too!😭

Good luck bro! You’ll complete it!
Love the video, they are always super well made! Keep it up!
Crown Zenith is the best!!! I pulled the Golden Arceus Yesterday!
Very nice!!
I’m going to say the same thing I said last time is dang man you have hot hands with this set! This is the Kanto Kurt set not the crown zenith set🔥🔥
Good hits!! I pulled the Giratina VSTAR this morning!! Can’t wait to open more
Congrats Neisha!!!
@@KantoKurt Thank you! Definitely was a shocking pull lol
Kurt save some pulls for the rest of us! lol! j/k No gold cards yet, but did get my personal chase this set (Hisuin Zoroark) . If anyone is in the area the Dollar General in Citrus Heights had quite a few Vivid Voltage Sleeves and some really clean Rebel Clash / Fusion Strike pin sets a few weeks ago. Great video as always!
I pulled 3 Pikachu's from 2 ETBs
One regular ETB and One PC ETB.
I really thought it was rare... But is it really?
I wish I had one of those I only opened 1 pack of the new set from a friend of mine who got a elite trainer box I got a picachu puzzle piece card
That was awesome u pulled the three best gold cards and the secret rare pika in 4 boxes best ever opening
I pulled the Mew Two VSTAR GG (My main chase), as well as two Pikachus. I am content with my pulls, and probably won’t open any more ETB’s, just probably will buy one to keep sealed, and I still will probably open the tins when they come out.
My etb from pokemon center was awful Just 4 hits in 12 boosters 😢
Wow, that box is impressive!!!
Third Secret rare art Pikachu, send some pull rate luck my way for sure !
I loved this set ❤️ And I am planing for all card collecting in this set. Is there any online web for buying single card?
ebay and TCGplayer are great options :)
Those were some pretty fire ETBs! I'm kinda starting to think production really messed up the spreading (collation?) of hits with the PC ETBs. I've seen a lot of people double up on the same hits from the same ETB and I know 2 guys from work who both bought 2 of the PC ETBs.

the pikachu card is one of the best card I've seen I love it so much !
I've pulled 4 Arceus Vstars and still no Pikachu... lol
Pullrates are 100% the best in years. A galarian gallery is 1 in 3 - gold card 1 in 80 - and that Pikachu is roughly 1 in 120. I feel like they're more in line with what vintage cards had for their special cards.

always quality videos kurt:) absolutely LOVE crown zenith, i’ve only been able to open one etb and it was a dud🫠 but still an amazing set
Thanks Ana! Your next one will be better 😃
@@KantoKurt kurt!! i sure hope so:)
I want that secret rare PIKACHU SO BAD plssss hahaha just got my 4th and 5th etb can’t wait to open them
Pulled some heat from Pokemon GO, grabbed a couple more celebrations boxes from Wally mart today!
Luckily I pulled 5 gold cards after 88 packs. Was able to sell a duplicate arceus for $115 and a duplicate dialga for $70. Not very often do you get your money back in an etb… but I haven’t pulled the secret pikachu yet!

Love the content Kurt keep up the great videos 🔥👏🏻
Amazing video once again
Thanks Nicholas!
can you put the link in the comments pls to buy the plus
Great pulls. I love this set!
Too bad i cant get the pc version overseas
I have never opened the elite trainer box plus because it is really expensive
also i ordered 6 pc etb's and every single one only had 11 packs
From what I've seen from most cases, about 8 are pretty stacked and 2 are duds. And when I mean stacked and duds, its on the Galarian Gallery cards because thats what people are hunting.
Man, it seems like EVERYONE is pulling the same cards from this set, has ANYONE pulled the Mewtwo VStar?
The pikachu is the card that represents the s&s era. Pokemon says everyone should own one.
Oh my gosh 😂😂😂 3 SR Pikachu’s?????? I need your luck
Love it!! 🔥🔥💪🏼 @Kanto Kurt
I can't pull the Pikachu to save my life😂
You’ll pull it soon Barry 😃
@@KantoKurt thanks bro😂😂 hopefully soon! Love the content! Started collecting again and haven't since I was a kid! Look forward to your videos!😎
Man what the heck, I’m 114 packs in with no secret rare pikachu!! I must be the only one lol, congrats on the pulls! 🎉
You’re gonna pull it Greggorz I believe in you!
Wow wow! I need that secret rare Pikachu so badly. Would you wanna trade for it? Lmk!
Keep one sealed
You’ve definitely been very lucky on your pulls. 👍🙂 Unfortunately for me, not so lucky in multiple ways. 😂 Half of my zenith preorders got lost in the mail.

Better pulls are on the way Jake!
Watching from Philippines
Thanks so much!
Ayooooooooooo bam levels are mad low ngl. And for the double trouble double whammies. Suprising
I've opened 2 CZ ETBs and both were complete duds
Regular etb hits harder than Pokémon center on average lol
Why does alot of people pronounce it zeenith?
There's only 1 e
Anyway love the video 😁🔥
Because it's spelled and pronounced just like the og TV/electronics company named Zenith and that company was always pronounced Zee-nith by everyone. Zenith was bought out by LG Electronics in 1995. It had been a well known electronics brand name since the 1940s. But because I'm familiar with the Zenith electronics name it actually annoys me when people pronounce it Zen-ith when talking about this set.
My 5 ETbs have been complete crap
Regular or Pokémon Center?
600 packs and i haven't pulled the zard vstar yet have 11 golds and 5 pikachus...actually only pulled the 9 card image pikachu once...pull rates are super weird
Lol people complaining about they didn't get hits from ETB's lol 😂 probably cause they don't play the card game you all are pulling so many good cards you don't give credit for too worried about ultra rares and above
Today is your payday Buddy!
What up kurt
What’s up!
Is it just me or is he under pricing the cards
I don’t price the cards, the prices are taken directly from tcg player market prices
First Pin?
