Been watching your videos for a long time (probably about a decade at this point), but really started to get into watching your first playthrough movies in the last few months. Your genuine love and enthusiasm for the franchise is just so refreshing and pleasant. Please never stop doing what you do.
I'm not one for card openings, but yours are always an exception to that. Your fun demeanour and genuine enthusiasm for many of the cards you find make for a lovely watching experience. It's fun to be exposed to something I otherwise wouldn't engage with in such an enjoyable way. Take it easy with your other projects, Absol! I'm sure they'll be terrific all the same.
There are few channels on this site that just exude such a vibe of positivity and genuine humanity. I have watched your content for quite some time, and every video you post is something that just makes me smile. You have such a genuine reaction to things, not hyped up for the camera, just you doing you. It is unlikely this comment will be seen, but if it does, please keep doing what you're doing, Matt. From a long time fan.
Was very excited to see you open this pack! You actually got me back into collecting cards, though I mostly buy full art singles from my lcs these days. Thank you for the video, I love how much you appreciate every card, even if it’s not Crazy Rare Rainbow EX GX Charizard!
That dragonair card is one of the most beautiful cards I've ever seen. By the way, does anyone know how to find the social media of an artist who worked on TCG? I tried so hard to find "rika" who did the art for that card but with such a generic name and with that being the only card attributed to her I was sadly completely unable to figure it out.
im so glad that the pokemon company is finally starting to notice the original 151 and giving it the well deserved love and respect it needs (clearly a joke btw)
you just reminded me of that book at the beginning that i used to look through so much when i was younger, definitely dont have it anymore but have fond memories that i had forgotten about.
This set looks great!! I think It's really easy for "revamps" and stuff like this to become really gimmicky and cheap but it looks like they did a pretty good job honoring the originals while still bringing the nostalgia factor
Great job Absol I don’t usually watch your Pokémon card content because I like to avoid spoilers for the cards but I couldn’t resist watching your video and keep up the amazing work
I was hoping you'd pull my favorite, I'm glad you managed a couple of sandshrews 😎 I haven't collected the cards in a long time but I might try to pick up a couple packs of this set, the art is great
Those Poké Ball and Master Ball reverse patterns are so cool! I feel having a rare pattern like that is more 'fair' than all those special numbered cards in the sets we have since SWSH, like the rainbow rares. You don't really need any Master Ball cards to complete your set, but it would be nice to have your favourite cards with that pattern :) Also I can't believe the one card I want from this set, full art Pikachu, is the first one you pulled xD
Accidentally bought like 100 standard sized card sleeves (YuGiOh uses small, so i got the wrong ones), but at least it gives me an excuse to by Pokemon booster packs. Can't wait to get some of these later this year, I still have yet to pull and illustration rare!
I don't like pokemon cards because i don't understand anything, but god damn that happiest weedle got me good. Now i wanna buy these boosters just for the weedle.❤
my popplio was some level from being fully evolved and professor oak challenge moon nut ultra version and living pokedex and my starter popplio is A baby because she is A girl and i choose not to evolve her because it took twenty or thirty time to reset to get A girl starter popplio so i decided that i would be uncomfortable with evolveing A pokemon for once and i have no problem with getting egg from A unevolved starter pokemon for completeing the pokedex if i could avoid evolveing A pokemon permanently for the professor oak challenge and plus it is A solo popplio challenge so i had two have her go back two being A popplio i decided two Do some thing like the professor oak challenge
What I find really interesting is that the Pokemon icons in the top right corner don''t match the high quality Pokemon icon art leaked earlier this year for scarlet and violet Some icons look almost identical with some tweaks and some look drastically different There's no reason to do this because it is in the same style as the ones leaked earlier this year, just in different poses edit : I realised its the original ken sugimori artwork from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen in that style - I'm dumb
big projects on the way, rest-assured! enjoy some chill 151 opening for now
When is the next Level 100 gauntlet?
@@DragonTuba5159 eventually, I'm workin' on it
What about a level 100 gauntlet where you only kill houndour in the starter cave in sv while only having starter and havent beaten the tutorial?
@@AbsolBlogsPokemon my guess at what it is: picnic level 100 gauntlet?
@@AbsolBlogsPokemonany hints?

The artwork on all these cards, not just the full arts, incredible and the video a joy to watch for your genuine enthusiasm!

That Squirtle card is EVERYTHING!! Such a cutie!!
2:15 that impression was so good 😂😂😂

Can’t wait to cop a few packs of these myself this fall. It’d be neat to see Johto get this kind of attention too. It also makes me nostalgic
Johto probs won’t get it. 251 doesn’t sound as great as 151
you know the pokemon company has no shame when it comes to gen one pandering. gen 2 ain't getting anything
It’s not Gen 1, no chance.
I was wondering this exact thing when this ser first came out, I'm so glad you did a video like this
I never understand Pokemon Card openings but I just love to watch them
*-can’t wait for the booster pack of meltan’s region-*
ooh neat! it’s been a while since the last card video!… the “Lickitung?!!” caught me off guard 😂
Was very excited to see you open this pack! You actually got me back into collecting cards, though I mostly buy full art singles from my lcs these days. Thank you for the video, I love how much you appreciate every card, even if it’s not Crazy Rare Rainbow EX GX Charizard!
that book was so nostalgic! i read the crap out of it even though theres lots of incorrect stuff in it like my diamond and pearl post game guide
I'm glad I'm not the only one that quotes SupremeRk9's "Shiny Lickitung?!", randomly
That dragonair card is one of the most beautiful cards I've ever seen. By the way, does anyone know how to find the social media of an artist who worked on TCG? I tried so hard to find "rika" who did the art for that card but with such a generic name and with that being the only card attributed to her I was sadly completely unable to figure it out.
That Mewtwo art is absolutely NUTS.
Yooo that pokeball pattern is so awesome!!!
i wasn't feeling very good but this video helped a bit :) love the ibuprofen cameo
i always love watching your videos and wanted to say thank you matt (absol). you always sweeten my day with your videos
im so glad that the pokemon company is finally starting to notice the original 151 and giving it the well deserved love and respect it needs (clearly a joke btw)
Tbf how much love has Tangela gotten since gen 4
really cool video idea! i loved seeing the number go up lol. awesome how close you got to completing the 151
Man that impression at 2:15 was so so good
the master ball reverse holos are SUCH A COOL IDEA! looking forward to seeing you do this with the english set! grats on the double dragon!
Really cool to see that you got a good percentage of them! There's a good variety and I really love a lot of the art in these packs too :D
Love your channel man you always make content that’s fun to watch
Was looking forward to seeing you open these, congrats on all the pulls!
So many good cards in this set ! The Chansey is sooo cute
You know it’s a good day when Absol uploads :)
That seel is so adorable! So many cute and cool cards!
thank you so much for making these matt, you are the best! :)
I love all the eeveelution cards in the set, The card art is really cute
love the thumbnail!!!
I have that Pokédex book!!! My grandma recently sent it to me as it had been with her since I was a kid 😊
you just reminded me of that book at the beginning that i used to look through so much when i was younger, definitely dont have it anymore but have fond memories that i had forgotten about.
I used to read it SO MUCH
Can't wait for the English release! Need to add that Vaporeon and Mew to my collections
sounds like an interesting idea, dont normally watch the card openings but ill give this one a go!
That Mewtu looked sooo sick !!!!!!
Some great hits! Love the artwork for this set, can't wait for it to come to English in a few months 😎
Congrats on the pulls, especially Erika, people going crazy for her right now. Love the videos! ❤ ❤
These cards are gorgeous =). Japanese cards have their own charm. Thank you for showing us these in such a fun way=3
This set looks great!! I think It's really easy for "revamps" and stuff like this to become really gimmicky and cheap but it looks like they did a pretty good job honoring the originals while still bringing the nostalgia factor
this was an awesome video love to see you uploading
Great job Absol I don’t usually watch your Pokémon card content because I like to avoid spoilers for the cards but I couldn’t resist watching your video and keep up the amazing work
Love watching your vids absol keep it up, but no rush.
I won one of these booster boxes from a premium gacha machine here in Japan! I was super stoked
I was hoping you'd pull my favorite, I'm glad you managed a couple of sandshrews 😎 I haven't collected the cards in a long time but I might try to pick up a couple packs of this set, the art is great
I enjoy these chill videos. if i needed something more crazy then i can hop in a stream
Congrats on that master ball moltres!
Love your videos! Keep up the great work! (I know this sounds generic, but I mean it lol)
The thrill of the hunt! My card opening days are behind me, unless I want to go broke 😂
Those Poké Ball and Master Ball reverse patterns are so cool! I feel having a rare pattern like that is more 'fair' than all those special numbered cards in the sets we have since SWSH, like the rainbow rares. You don't really need any Master Ball cards to complete your set, but it would be nice to have your favourite cards with that pattern :) Also I can't believe the one card I want from this set, full art Pikachu, is the first one you pulled xD
This makes me want to fall back into opening packs but it's so expensive and I have no space
i had that Pokémon Handbook as a kid! kinda wanna pick up another copy of it, have no idea where my original ended up
I love your breaks! Very lucky!
OMG I have that book you opened at the start. I forgot all about it. I should go find it.
Price isn't everything, but that Erica has sold recently for just under 400USD!
Accidentally bought like 100 standard sized card sleeves (YuGiOh uses small, so i got the wrong ones), but at least it gives me an excuse to by Pokemon booster packs. Can't wait to get some of these later this year, I still have yet to pull and illustration rare!
Heck yeah this is gonna chill me out
I literally gasped when I saw Erika, congrats!
The bulbasaur art in this set is so friggin cute
catching pokes or catching dreams? you decide
I fist pumped when you pulled a Lickitung.
Congrats on the Master Ball pattern ファイヤー!
I haven't paid too much attention to this set but some of the art cards I've seen from it are great
If you’re looking for something to do with your dupe(s), I recommend framing them :D Has made for some awesome decoration around my room
Lord Helix has risen again!
Absol, You have inspired me to buy a gba sp and shiny hunt!
Chansey is my favorite pokemon and it's art is so cool!
Love the card vids
I have done nothing but binge absol videos all summer
Ibuprofen better be sponsoring this vid
gotta be my fave staryu and starmie cards yet
I really appreciate you doing these openings. so i dont spend my own money on cards XD
14:37 sandshrew’s Japanese name is “sando” & sandslash is “sandopan”! So sand & sandpan(golin) :>
Still the best pokemon youtuber!
babe wake up, absol uploaded a new video
incredible set indeed
_this guy casually pulled a $200+ card_
dang
Thank you for making TH-cam video ❤
Ohhhh sweet!
wake up babe. new absol
Insane that Erica is going for 300
Good show, Mate
(Hope you’re feeling well!)
Yo Absol, fellow youtuber (2.5k) NeoHere has an Absol fanclub
Put them in the pokerap order
Funny you say that about Celebrations, coz I got three Gold Mew but not Zard or Umbreon
Seems silly, but I’d love to buy an extra Vaporeon you pulled with your signature on it! Where could I reach out to do so?
I don't like pokemon cards because i don't understand anything, but god damn that happiest weedle got me good.
Now i wanna buy these boosters just for the weedle.❤
I just preordered the English one lol
Lickitung??? I died
cant wait finally have mono sound from the camera. cant watch this with this sound
new absol upload!
Man I need those reverse patterns in the English sets 😫
I miss the Gen 3 era reverses!!
Today I found a shiny absol in Pokémon Go and I named it after you (:
I also caught it in a normal pokeball so it would match
On the marowak holo idk if I’m right or not but I think the cubone is shiny on the top left

Like I said before, I don't even collect cards. I just like your commentary
