No doubt the thing to do with this set is buy the two collection boxes to get the promos and ignore the rest of the set. They should have made those two promos regular sir’s
This set was a mistake. They should have just combined it with the September set and made it a regular set. Both sets are going to be really small and underwhelming as a result.
Agree with this. Or really it should have been stuck with twilight masquerade . Would have made it similar size to paldea evolved. And all the characters from the DLC would be in one set together.
Personally, I think it's a fun small set for casual collectors. Sometimes, its overwhelming to complete these massive sets. The arts in this set are super cool, and the set follows a very cool theme. I like it.
I love the Loyal Three and Pecharunt, plus Cassiopeia is a nice card! Can’t wait for this set I also love the illustration rares and how small it is! The cresscelia is so cool!
Those promos weren’t a part of the Japanese set. So, they didn’t take them from the set to make them promos, the cards were designed specifically to be promos and won’t currently exist in Japanese at all.
I'll buy a couple of the greninja and kingdra boxes to keep sealed. They'll be a nice long term hold. I might open one of each with the best looking promos to grade.
At first I was into this set because I liked the art cards, but now I’m really into this set because for the first time since I started collecting again a year ago I actually want to try making a deck and play the game. Also, lots of people stalking about Greninja and Kingdra, those aren’t even in the Japanese set and were made specifically as English promos.
I was one of your winners of the 6 packs of twilight on your drip stream the other day. Just got my cards in the mail and i pulled the PERRIN!!!!!! YOU ARE GOOD LUCK SIR! thank you so much!
Besides S&W not being printed,This prolly also explains why Sword and Shield is sky rocketing, bc a lot of recent sets are lackluster from Masquerade to now this,
I only pre ordered a PCE ETB for my sealed collection, that’s as far as I’m going to go. There’s nothing I really want to chase in this set, which I’m fine with. Gives me more funds to put towards sets I do enjoy
Honestly I love smaller sets. I never pull SIRs anyway and the IRs in this set are truly amazing. You don't have to open 30+ packs every set. Sometimes a set is just for opening a few packs to see what you get. I'll definitely be getting both the Kingdra and Greninja boxes 'cause at least I'll be getting an awesome card in each.
“If a set isn’t Gen 1 or Eevee focused, people won’t collect it.” But I can agree with these people for once that this set looks kinda mid, even though I enjoy Pecharunt and the Loyal Three.
Why do you enjoy that? To me it's so gimmicky and feels like it's been done before, reminds me of cosmog it's even got a stupid little ponytail like why all these dumb little "cute but evil" pokemon got a ponytail? And the colour scheme of the pokemon is awful, the green and purple dog yuck.
@@OpinionatedChicken59 I personally like them from a cultural perspective, and they give off the same vibes as the anime’s Team Rocket. Playing an antagonistic role, but still goofy enough to be charming.
It’s criminal that they made the Greninja and Kingdra promos. Whoever is making those decisions at Pokemon has rocks in their heads. Literally killed any chase for the consumer (and with it, any desire for more product being bought) by removing the 2 best cards
I've purchased both the Japanese booster box and English kingdra ex set, actually when I look back at it now I think it was a mistake, I'll open the kingdra ex box just for the card itself but I think I'll just resell the japanese box. Looking forward to stellar crown etb tho as I want that rainbow lapras in my collection
Says that Illustration Rares can’t carry a set. But 3 of the Top 5 cards in Paldea Evolved value wise is IR and the top card over 100$ is an IR. So yea they def can. No to mention Groudon IR as well.
as always ima wait till every card gets announced before i cancel my pc pre orders but i do agree with you that as of now the only desirable cards in the set are the promos and the ars. scarlet and violet has had a repeated issue of making better ars than sars and this set is a prime example of that.
Cancel your orders immediately this set is garbage. You can see the full set pretty much anywhere, just google it or you can also google the Japanese version of this set Night Wanderer which has been out for a while now. There are no good cards. I repeat, there are no good cards. The best it's got is Cassiopeia and that card is not going to carry the set.
Can someone please explain to me why this is a specialty set? I just don’t quite understand I get there are no booster boxes but I don’t think having the legendaries/mythical from the game should justify it. Thanks for the great content Jake God bless all!!!
@@TwicebakedJake I definitely agree with that lol but even celebrations only had 50 cards give or take. There just doesn’t seem to be a theme which is what confuses me. Champions path is the closest thing I can compare this to but even that was charizard themed which is probably one of the most popular Pokémon. Thanks for the feedback Jake :)
Stay away from this one but would target paldea evolved or twilight as a base to start collection unless investing. Vintage is going down heavy so might be the time to pick these up.
It's definitely a set that exists solely to get the cards out on time to literally become legal Day 1 of Worlds with how cards like the Dusclops/Dusknoir elevates Charizard immensely or how Fezendipity is a reprint of Oricorio GX
As someone who collects/plays yugioh, the new SIRs are tame in comparison to the Starlight and 25th Quarter Century Rares. 😂 I'll probably just buy the Cassiopeia as it's my only chase card.
I'm also not super excited about this set. I'll likely get 1 ETB, and then save my Poke Dollars for some of the more exciting sets that have already been announced moving forwards.
Am i the only one that thinks they missed the mark by not putting a SIR Ceruledge in this set. Still waiting on a SIR Ceruledge or Armarogue. My favorite Pokemon from SV . 😅😂😊
I don’t think they “messed up” on this set or it is a “mistake”, this is a good collector item in the short and long term especially the Kingdra and Greninja boxes which I hope they print enough as those are the best cards in the set. Not every set should have a Charizard or other nostalgic Pokemon, the Pokemon art in here is good. I love this set for it’s potential affordability. You’d be mad at this if you’re an “investor” though in which case, womp womp.
@@TwicebakedJake ok but what i mean is is there a Japanese version that they will get out of packs? Because english promos are such bad quality id rather purchase a super clean japanese version
For once we got some amazing cards that Japan doesnt get. Kingdra & Greninja all the way EZZZZ. The sparkle is what helps with the EDO vibes. See it as grain
As a japanese collector Night Wanderer it's probably one of the worst sets I've seen in a while then again who cares, there are still 12 beautiful ARs waiting to be put in my binder, even in a set as disappointing as this one I'm still looking forward to something and with all the absolute bangers waiting for us this year and in January I really can't complaint at all xV
I was saying this was gonna be the worst set since Champion's Path since the set was announced and people were clowning on me for it... Safe to say I was definitely right
I agree that the SIRs for this set but ALSO Twilight Masquerade have been dull. Perrin and Carmine do absolutely zero for me, we need to get back to amazing pokemon SIRs as I am so sick of medium-close-up trainer with a dull background, it's been done to exhaustion. I'm not even excited about the terestal pokemon sets coming out. Big hats and crystals. Nah.
Yeah nah, this set is geared towards players, not collectors, my man. There's some real meta-shifting cards in here that are going to be huge - in contrast, the "collectible" cards are very much few and far between.
Yes, weak set. Maybe Pokémon plan on short printing the set….since Stellar Crown comes out 1 month later. I pray Stellar Crown will have better SIR chases. 😂😂
People shat on twilight masquerade until greninja hit 200 and eevee is sitting at 40. Pokemon youtubers are so wishy washy it's getting annoying. As soon as a couple cards sell for a bunch everyone decides they like a set. Name one set over 6 years old you wouldn't love to open now? This set will be the same as every other set and be sought after over time, even if it doesn't hit right now.
They DESTROYED this set by making the two best cards promos. Whoever is running the show at pokemon HQ needs to be fired, because this has cost them MONEY!!!!!

This set is crazy for players, it's coming out right before worlds with a lot of viable cards that's shaking up the metagame in Japan rn
The best cards are the kingdra and Grenija promos so I would buy the collection boxes but not opening many packs.
No doubt the thing to do with this set is buy the two collection boxes to get the promos and ignore the rest of the set. They should have made those two promos regular sir’s
Yeah agreed. Even better just buy the promos as singles!
sorry but dusclops is a game changer for catcher decks
like tord zard...
Putting my money down now that the minute one of these cards rockets every influencer starts pining about how amazing these sir’s are
This set was a mistake. They should have just combined it with the September set and made it a regular set. Both sets are going to be really small and underwhelming as a result.
Agree with this. Or really it should have been stuck with twilight masquerade . Would have made it similar size to paldea evolved. And all the characters from the DLC would be in one set together.
Both sets are insane for the TCG though?
Personally, I think it's a fun small set for casual collectors. Sometimes, its overwhelming to complete these massive sets. The arts in this set are super cool, and the set follows a very cool theme. I like it.
The *theme* is a cool idea, but the execution and the artwork is very lacklustre.
The SIRs are a bit lackluster but the IRs look great again. The set will be fine.
The Greninja, Kingdra and Kinggambit cards look awesome
I love the Loyal Three and Pecharunt, plus Cassiopeia is a nice card! Can’t wait for this set I also love the illustration rares and how small it is! The cresscelia is so cool!
I like this Greninja more than the one in Twilight Masquerade. Also, I would've liked to see a Jasmine SIR
I would not buy any sealed stuff currently. Pull rates are disgusting. Sticking to singles...
I haven't collected anything since 151 but I'm staying tuned to these Rocket / Eevee sets in the future.
Never heard of those, will there be a rocket theme set?
@@luismendes4990 rumored
They drop the ball by making the 2 best cards promos
A win for collectors, an L for investors. Im glad they're promos. I hope they keep doing this.
@@MakoKongagreed
Those promos weren’t a part of the Japanese set. So, they didn’t take them from the set to make them promos, the cards were designed specifically to be promos and won’t currently exist in Japanese at all.
They did that on purpose to get the collections to sell.
I’m going crazy for the houndoom SIR and the ETB has the best color dice of any set
What is "SIR" mean? Sorry js getting into pokemon cards
You mean IR?
@@AlejandroGonzalez-ks5lnspecial illustration rare or alternate arts
I'll buy a couple of the greninja and kingdra boxes to keep sealed. They'll be a nice long term hold. I might open one of each with the best looking promos to grade.
I ordered greninja one I’m just doing some research (my birthday is 3rd August so I’m treating myself)
Small yes. Disappointing? I don’t think so. There is some good art here. Maybe no big chase yet. But there will be, the market will pick one or two!
What do you think is up with ceruledge not getting any cards, he was my favorite new pokemon
At first I was into this set because I liked the art cards, but now I’m really into this set because for the first time since I started collecting again a year ago I actually want to try making a deck and play the game. Also, lots of people stalking about Greninja and Kingdra, those aren’t even in the Japanese set and were made specifically as English promos.
I was one of your winners of the 6 packs of twilight on your drip stream the other day. Just got my cards in the mail and i pulled the PERRIN!!!!!! YOU ARE GOOD LUCK SIR! thank you so much!
That greninja promo imo is infinitely better looking than the TM greninja. The Kingdra is insanely good looking.
Right. I like the TM Greninja but I like this one more
Besides S&W not being printed,This prolly also explains why Sword and Shield is sky rocketing, bc a lot of recent sets are lackluster from Masquerade to now this,
TM is absolutely not lacklustre, infact its easily the most popular set since 151.
Jake, i love you and have watched you for years. That new music with the singing is horrific, the old tbj music was so much better.
It sounds like it was AI generated, so he could do better 100% with a little time and effort.
I only pre ordered a PCE ETB for my sealed collection, that’s as far as I’m going to go. There’s nothing I really want to chase in this set, which I’m fine with. Gives me more funds to put towards sets I do enjoy
I'm hyped for this set because of the Houndoom and Persian. The SIR's aren't that good though.
Honestly I love smaller sets. I never pull SIRs anyway and the IRs in this set are truly amazing. You don't have to open 30+ packs every set. Sometimes a set is just for opening a few packs to see what you get. I'll definitely be getting both the Kingdra and Greninja boxes 'cause at least I'll be getting an awesome card in each.
This will be the Pokemon Go of the Scarlet & Violet era😂
Wish they made a Gengar V SIR
Maybe in team rocket set 👀
I am optimistic about the new sparkle pattern. While I dont want it on every card, I am excited for it to be on a few.
“If a set isn’t Gen 1 or Eevee focused, people won’t collect it.”

I'll be getting the promo boxes. Very thankful it's a small set so I can only pick up a little bit of it and go on to a set I'd rather hunt.
Unpopular opinion but I’m super excited for the Cassiopeia SIR, I love the design
i personally like the loyal three sars a lot. Im currently just picking up japanese boxes while prices are cheap
Says that Illustration Rares can’t carry a set. But 3 of the Top 5 cards in Paldea Evolved value wise is IR and the top card over 100$ is an IR. So yea they def can. No to mention Groudon IR as well.
A competition set no collectors want. The moment that eevee set was announced, this just went down the drain further

Even the packs look boring. That sets my expectations low.
We got 30 subs! On our way to 100 🎉🎉🎉
That greninja promos sick. Would love to get the houndoom too
I’m new to Pokémon should i wait for stellar crown or should I invest into vintage stuff
Stay away from this one but would target paldea evolved or twilight as a base to start collection unless investing. Vintage is going down heavy so might be the time to pick these up.
What’s up with all the sets having such unappealing names?
I'm asking the same question lol, they have gone more fancy fantasy rather than a cool and strong looking name like for example roaring skies
I’m happy that’s it’s a small set bc it should be easy to get done but I agree maybe those promos should of been the chase cards
The hondoom and persian are about it for me lol
It's definitely a set that exists solely to get the cards out on time to literally become legal Day 1 of Worlds with how cards like the Dusclops/Dusknoir elevates Charizard immensely or how Fezendipity is a reprint of Oricorio GX
I think because the leak about a possible team rocket set coming out they are putting out what they had already and slapped a new name on it.
the greninja ex promo should have been one of the chase cards in this set
everybody will agree - the set will suffer for 3 or 4 years - then in 6 years it'll be the most sought after. watch...
As someone who collects/plays yugioh, the new SIRs are tame in comparison to the Starlight and 25th Quarter Century Rares. 😂
I'll probably just buy the Cassiopeia as it's my only chase card.
I do like the houndoom IR but outside of that in the mainset not promos it's not great.
people thought the same abt teilight masquerade, sure they had the greninja but idk this could turn around we might js not see it yet
The 2 bangers promos is all I’ll get from this set.
All penny cards are chases for me also I like pecharunt and the trio so it's a w for me
No one complained about champions path. I wonder why? It wasn’t because there was a rainbow Charizard VMAX? 🤔
I'm also not super excited about this set. I'll likely get 1 ETB, and then save my Poke Dollars for some of the more exciting sets that have already been announced moving forwards.
The alt arts are all great looking in this set, but I hope most people have the same opinion as you so the set stays cheap for me to buy singles lmao.
Ur crazy. Those cards look amazing. They need to do that more. The first two are good. Idk about rest
Not to self. You should sign the BACK not the front
Am i the only one that thinks they missed the mark by not putting a SIR Ceruledge in this set. Still waiting on a SIR Ceruledge or Armarogue. My favorite Pokemon from SV . 😅😂😊

just gonna buy casseopia and get the 2 promos and im done 🤙🤙🤙
I’m going for Mastery set with SF especially since it’s less cards.
Is the greninja exclusive to english?
The Greninja is coming in a Shrouded Fable collection box
@@TwicebakedJake ok but what i mean is is there a Japanese version that they will get out of packs? Because english promos are such bad quality id rather purchase a super clean japanese version

Set gonna be Nice for collectors 💯🌟🌟🌟
Why is Greninja getting a card 2 sets in a row? When did it get so popular?
Have you been living under a rock? Greninja, have been top 10 since its introduction.
As a japanese collector Night Wanderer it's probably one of the worst sets I've seen in a while then again who cares, there are still 12 beautiful ARs waiting to be put in my binder, even in a set as disappointing as this one I'm still looking forward to something and with all the absolute bangers waiting for us this year and in January I really can't complaint at all xV
I was saying this was gonna be the worst set since Champion's Path since the set was announced and people were clowning on me for it... Safe to say I was definitely right
How is it safe to say? The set doesn't release for another 4 weeks
Looks like it'll be a good set
Id buy the etb because the box looks cool
That persion should have been 151
foreplay for team rocket release hehe
Holo pattern isn’t “NEW” the iono
no im just gonna buy the promo box with sedraking and gyjusto and thats it
Nothing stands out in the set. Should have just included it with twilight. Passing on this.
I love the promos!

Yea....I only want the promos.
Great video!!!😊😊
You buy it because you like the cards in the set, is everyone treating pokemon like the stockmarket??
Battle styles
I’m glad somebody else is finally saying it. This set is trash.
Shrouded Fable ='s Battle Styles
For collectors it's so so, because those legendary pokemon isn't that great not even in the game imo.
Another obsidian flames level set. Bit of a waste
This set looks like a massive flop. These etb will likely drop under 40$ if not all the way down to 30$. Unless they short print it.
Yes, weak set. Maybe Pokémon plan on short printing the set….since Stellar Crown comes out 1 month later. I pray Stellar Crown will have better SIR chases. 😂😂
Is going to be a pass for me

It doesnt have gen 1 or charizard so not good. Disregard everything else. Only care about nostalgiabaiting for stocks.
