Both of these are Uncommon cards going by the small diamond icon in the lower corner by the card number. When you're not playing the game Trainer cards aren't all that exciting to pull.
A holofoil Trainer card? That's new to me as I didn't know these type of cards had holofoil versions.
I guess holofoil cards fall one per pack? It's been so long since I've opened a pack of Pokemon cards that I honestly don't know. This holofoil is one of those where the foil encompasses the entire front of the card, not just the artwork section. Really cool looking in hand.
My thoughts? Meh, it was kind of fun. I still find it hard to believe that Pokemon cards have kept their popularity all this time. I do give Wizards of the Coast a thumbs up for reinventing the brand to keep it fresh. The cards look great and there is a small part of me that wouldn't mind learning how to play the game...after all I'm sure my girls have enough cards to build two decks!
Thanks for sharing this! I’ve been picking up a few packs here and there because my girls really like the look of some of them. We are thinking about learning to play too.
ReplyDeleteI like Pokemon. I like cards. I like opening packs. Sue me! Seriously though, its fun to share a hobby of mine with my kids. I've got more packs from different series' coming soon.
DeleteThat Pokemon Fan Club card is cool. My students started presenting their projects today and one of the talked about their Pokemon collection.
ReplyDeleteMy younger son gets packs from time to time but has no desire to play the game. He only recently starting keeping them in those collector tins; before they were anywhere (which hurt me greatly to see foil or rare cards on the floor). All the Pokemon packs I put on A Pack To Be Named Later are his.
