Got a case of etbs. None of the promos were close to centered and not a single sir. In 10 ETB's (90 packs) i got: 1 Cyrano FA 230 1 Surfer FA 235 1 Black Kyurem FA 218 1 Kecleon IR 213 1 Troll Slaking FA 227 1 Stunfisk IR 202 1 Golden Stretcher 251 1 Bruxish IR 200 1 Dugtrio IR 208 1 Exeggutor FA 225 1 Braviary IR 214 1 Slakoth IR 212 1 Brilliant Blender AS 164 1 Precious Trolley AS 185 2 Enriching Energy AS 191 2 Energy Search Pro AS 176 1 Black Kyurem EX 48 2 Archaludon EX 130 1 Ceruledge EX 36 3 Flygon Ex 106 1 Tatsugiri EX 142 1 Milotic EX 42 2 Scovillain EX 37 1 Latias EX 76 1 Cyclizar EX 159 1 Flamigo EX 160 1 pikachu EX 057 1 Palossand EX 91 The cards are somewhat dirty out of the packs where you could sometimes feel particulate rubbing between the card when sliding them. The textures are faint.
I opened 2 of the Pokemon center ETBs. Card quality was really good. No big hits but the promos and cards I did get were all very well centered with no issues to speak of. I’m collecting the stamped promos and grading them so I’m glad I got lucky
This is crazy, I just started collecting and I’ve opened a few packs, and an etb, I was planning on buying a booster box but I might just hold and get singles instead, it’s definitely an investment to get into collecting and I think I’m gonna take my time and build a deck for competitive play first. Great video
Got SIR Milotic! pack 13 out of 36. New to collecting and such. Looking to sell it. Should wait or sell while the hype is up and there arent many out there?
I'm am desperately trying not to open my Pokémon Centre ETB that arrived today and not sure I will make it 3 more days for the standard ETB to arrive - I want to start Pikachu hunting asap lol
Impressed how fast you turned around pull rates on this pack love these vids. Daughter and I just started collecting with stellar crown loving the journey.
I lucked out, pre ordered x2 blisters x2 bundle and x1 booster box. Ended up pulling 238 pikachu in a pack behind one that was crimped on the cards. First buy coming back as a collector!
Im more worried about prismatic evolution if the pull rates stay the same which i imagine they will be. It's one thing to have a main set be hard to find with these pull rates and another thing to have a specialty set have those bad pull rates. I've not seen preorders go so fast on sites like best buy and gamestop. I'm hoping they print it closer to crown zenith than 151.
My ETB was pretty brutal. 2 Ace Specs and 1 EX. I’ve got another ETB and BB on the way, and I did also manage to snag 2 PC ETBs this morning on restock (UK based) - hoping for better luck 😂 Cracking 1 PC ETB and keeping the other sealed… Choosing which one to open is gonna be tough.
Hey Danny, did you find any packs with a double hit? I bought an ETB and both versions of the three-pack blister. The ETB was pretty mid, but then I pulled an ACE spec, followed by Pikachu SIR from one pack out of one of the blisters... 🤯 I just stared at it for minutes in disbelief. Got all I can ask for from opening packs for this set 🥳
I’m really looking forward to getting my hands on a few Milotic ex. I wanna try running it with Frosslass in TCG. Don’t know if it will work, but idk I wanna try it 😂
This set has been really good for me O_o. 18 packs in and pulled Lisia’s Appeal SIR, tatsugiri ex (reg and FA), latias ex FA, B. Kyurem ex FA, Milotic ex (reg. and FA), Palossand ex (reg) and 1 ace spec. 12 sleeved boosters (picked randomly from the case) and 1 booster bundle. Dont know if this will help, but that’s how insane my luck has been as of late. Best of luck with everyone’s pulls!
I just started collecting and had no idea this set was new. Been buying and opening for a week now. Tooooooons of boosters and boxes where im at. BUT im 120+ boosters in and no Pikachu =( I have 30 boosters waiting for after dinner. Wish me luck!
Pokemon can't release booster boxes with guaranteed hits like they do in Japan and the simple reason is that this would affect rarity by a serious margin. English releases are a lot bigger than Japanese ones (production-wise) because the target audience is incredibly bigger. Imagine how many more hyper rare or sir cards Pokemon would have to print! There's just no point!
I'm very concerned with the quality control so far. Opened a booster box and 2 3-pack blisters and the SIR and 4 IR's I pulled all had some damage to them in some capacity. That's unacceptable.
Wow, eagle eye watcher catching that Drayton, haha. With everything you have going on in your life on top of ripping packs to build that master set, I don't blame ya one bit for dorking it on one card. If it were me, there'd be way more mistakes, haha. My two PC ETBs burned me pretty good. That's most likely it for this set for me.
I honestly rather would buy singles ..even tho you get booster boxes tad bit cheaper for a pack but the singles is where the pull rate really jumps ! At least to me lol
I definetely believe there are less of certain chase cards seeded into the set to make them rarer. I say this because i can easily pull all the other cards that are not chases or hold much value but the ones that are chases are wayyyyyy harder to pull. Like ill pull 7 vivillion IRs but not a single ceruledge or latios IR. Same for SIRs. I see more of the lower end SIRs getting pulled by me and others than the chase SIRs. This is how every single set goes. The expensive cards barely ever get pulled and the cheap ones just flow out of the packs no problem. Until i pull the chase card multiple times as opposed to the others that hold no value, my mind is set.
Opened 66 packs yesterday and got absolutely smoked. This set is brutal
same opened 63 packs and got nothing of value except for the double rare pikachu ex :/. There is too much fluff in this set unfortunately
I opened 1 ETB that I bought for $50 from my Local Game Store and pulled Lisia's Appeal Sheeeeeeesh Looking good on my end
@@highfidelity909 crazy amount of doubles too... 3 scovillain exs and 3 cyclizar ex's I was losing my mind
Only 6 packs and I pulled the pikachu SIR in a quagsire tripack 😂
Sweet dude, congrats! 🥳
@AlphaStoutland thanks 🥰
Bang
Lucky! I pulled chein pao 😅
3-packs are 🐐ed
183 packs later and i finally pulled all 3 pikachus. it’s brutal.
edit: i am still missing 1 pikachu 🤪
There's 4 Pikachu rarities
Over $700 oof lol. At that you could almost just buy all the singles of the IRs and SIRs lol
@@TylerSL92yea but he enjoyed it and got some other cards too most likely.
@@TylerSL92i paid $100 per booster box, so more like $450
@@bitconemaxifacts. the hit rates are insane and will cover the cost of most the booster boxes
Thanks for the opportunity , Danny!
pull rates are frustrating... but it should be tough for the fire..if you want it easier (and cheaper) just buy the singles!
Wow congratulations 🎊🎈🎉🍾 1:50 on completing a binder already this is a great achievement and opportunity cool 😎
I just got my pokemon center etbs of surging sparks. I pulled the latios! Full art i believe it is.
Danny my first Surging Sparks pack ever from a PC ETB was the Alolan Exeggutor special illustration rare!!! Such a gorgeous card!
Bro me too!!!!!
@soullessgamin6954 first pack magic let's go!!!
These are the best videos you make hands down. I don’t know how you don’t have millions of subscribers. Thanks Phanny!

The cards are somewhat dirty out of the packs where you could sometimes feel particulate rubbing between the card when sliding them. The textures are faint.
Sounds resealed/fake… bad luck mate
@KrumovBobby They're real, did the tear test. They didn't seem resealed. The pull rates are just piss poor in Surging Sparks.
@@KrumovBobby The dirt was small particulates of the cut cards.
Can’t think of a less efficient way of opening 90 packs, sorry for that luck tho
@ChilleBruh I grade cards. I wanted A few PSA 10's of the promo's but not a single one.
I ordered the main 3 cards from this set that i wanted and that I could afford on the colloseum site. Love that milotic and feebas set.
I was just wondering where to get custom binders for master sets
I’m wanting to start one and hoping you could point me the right direction 😄🙏
Man that’s intense on pull rates
That binder has some fire art on it 😮😮😮
I opened 2 of the Pokemon center ETBs. Card quality was really good. No big hits but the promos and cards I did get were all very well centered with no issues to speak of. I’m collecting the stamped promos and grading them so I’m glad I got lucky

Opened 1 ETB for the fun, 1 full art, 1 ace spec, 2 standard EX’s.
If anyone looking for reference
The pull rates!!! Time to spend all my money chasing that pikachu!!!
Got SIR Milotic! pack 13 out of 36. New to collecting and such. Looking to sell it. Should wait or sell while the hype is up and there arent many out there?
Where did you get that binder? is it a custom order somewhere?
I'm am desperately trying not to open my Pokémon Centre ETB that arrived today and not sure I will make it 3 more days for the standard ETB to arrive - I want to start Pikachu hunting asap lol
Rip it
I actually pulled the Black Kyraim 2 weeks ago in my 3rd pack. I've seen them pulled twice in person so far
The Hydreigon ex special illustration rare is my favorite card. Akira Egawa art is just special!
Impressed how fast you turned around pull rates on this pack love these vids. Daughter and I just started collecting with stellar crown loving the journey.
must've been a better feeling to have a complete set of it. I literally had no binders at all xD

im about 30-40 packs in and havent had much luck yet. great set to collect tho. love the illustrations.
My very first pack opened yesterday, I got the Alolan Dugtrio 🤯
We've got Sylveon out of just 11 packs! Good vid btw :)
Would love to win that! The folder is awesome!
I pulled the Pika SIR from the last pack of six sleeved packs I opened today from Target. Crazy!!!
My ETB was pretty brutal.
2 Ace Specs and 1 EX.
I’ve got another ETB and BB on the way, and I did also manage to snag 2 PC ETBs this morning on restock (UK based) - hoping for better luck 😂

Uff those are some pull rates. Keep it up Danny!

Note: the Booster bundle pulls were the tatsugiri ex FA and the Palossand ex cards.
Great video and breakdown. Always look forward to these videos when a new set releases.
Pulled Clement’s quick wit sir off 4 sleeved boosters from Walmart!
Damn that's not bad. I've seen over 1000 packs with no Pikachus
I just bought 2 ETBs and the Pikachu SIR was in the first one I opened lol. Guess I’m done opening surging sparks haha
Always appreciate the information Danny.👍🏾💯💪🏾
We love your videos, Danny! Keep up the good work :)
Happy Surging Spark release day! Thank you as always for the pull rate data Danny!
I just started collecting and had no idea this set was new. Been buying and opening for a week now. Tooooooons of boosters and boxes where im at. BUT im 120+ boosters in and no Pikachu =( I have 30 boosters waiting for after dinner. Wish me luck!
Great info, thank you so much!
Hope I can pull some good stuff from this new set! Great Video!!
1 booster box, 1 Latios and Latias SIR, I'm done opening this set, saving the rest!!!!! Maybe get the pika SIR when the market chills tf out!!
My luck so far has been well below average this set. Fingers crossed future packs go my way.
This set is properly hyped IMO💚
Definitely pulling what I can for fun but then buying single cards I need to complete my master set once prices come down
Found a sweet spot with pull rates. Pull more, so everything is worth a little less, but you never feel as cheated .
Thanks for sharing the data
Great info here. Thanks!
I also love how Japanese does their boxes and pull rates.
These videos are vital to me when deciding to buy or not. Thanks Danny!
I've only opened 2 packs so far and gotten a regular latias ex, haha waiting on my etb and booster box
The Hydreigon and Pikachu SIRs are 🔥🔥🔥
My booster box came and I pulled the latias SIR! First time hitting my chase card with so few packs, and I'm over the moon!
Great content bro thanks for sharing the info!
Great to see pull rate data makes easier to manage my money cheers
Daughter started collecting 2 months ago and Hopefully my 8 years old daughter will pull her favorite Pikachu!
Don’t be so hard on yourself! We appreciate your work!
It took me 3 boosterboxes and 2 ETB's to pull the SIR Pika :)
Got a etb with Alolan exeggutor Sir and 2 illustration rares and got a 6pack booster box and got the pickachu SIR! Been buzzing all day! 😅
What a handsome set, but I'm waiting the prismatic evolution for my new set 😅😅 gl too all of us 🎉
I went to target but they didn’t have them up yet 😩😭 I would go to a local shop but the closest is an hour and 1/2 away 😩
Best set in sv so far!! The alohan exeggutor is sooo pretty I hope I can pull it.
Pokemon can't release booster boxes with guaranteed hits like they do in Japan and the simple reason is that this would affect rarity by a serious margin.

There's just no point!
Pulling the Cassi in SF doomed me...I'm never going to pull a chase card again now. Wish that Pikachu was the card that made my luck run out instead
I'm very concerned with the quality control so far. Opened a booster box and 2 3-pack blisters and the SIR and 4 IR's I pulled all had some damage to them in some capacity. That's unacceptable.

Thank you again Danny for all the great info!
Thanks for the info!
trying to build my first master set, working on stellar crown rn!
I JUST WANT A LATIAS AHHHHH (Hydreigon is also acceptable)
The Pikachu looks amazing.
Man this set is tough. Not the best luck yet cracking packs. I think I need to slow down lol.
My local GameStop had everything for surging sparks. Dont think this pack is sold out everywhere.
I got some okay pulls from the 2 etbs i got. No alts tho. Id be good woth just the hydreigon. Hopefully i win the master set!
I honestly rather would buy singles ..even tho you get booster boxes tad bit cheaper for a pack but the singles is where the pull rate really jumps ! At least to me lol
This set is pretty sweet 👌🎉
Hey Danny, how's it going today? Hope you have a great day!!!!😊
I want that binder!
First sleeved booster from targey latias sir 🤯
My case of surging Sparks is on its way.
It always amazes me how you give away a master set every freaking set.
No way😂😂 honest mistake, I just watched the last video an hour ago and had no clue.
I got a gold Pikachu and the alolan exeggutoor in the same box today 😁
having a pull rate of 1/1000+ packs is pretty insane
Can’t wait to open my first pack
I opened an ETB and a 6 pack booster. All I got was a Flygon EX lol.
Crazy pull rates....
Wow congrats
Damn, i opened an ETB and a Booster Box and pulled a Counter Gain gold card in each 🤣

I agree
Caught the PC etb restock earlier. Got 5 cases!
When was there a restock? Just earlier today?
Rough set! I opened 2 booster boxes and didn’t hit any SIRs. 13 hits each box. 3 IRs each box. Cool hits thou.
Mr Seifan, bravo on the catch.
