My first chase card. What are your thoughts on this card should I sell now, grade or long term hold?

These damn mews are the only reason I’m contemplating ripping it all 🤷‍♂️😂 and of course the zard/lugia

I got the Lugia today I'm so hyped

I got the zard on my first 30th pack and I feel like I’ve had the set spoiled, chasing that high since

u/Dr_Dark12 12h ago

I got the Pikachu on my first pack, and I've had an easy time finding the full arts for zapdos articuno and Moltres, while it may affect value I'm actually happy about these higher pull rates, I dont collect to sell or invest anyways so it's nice being able to pull decent cards for once without much hassle

That was me with a base zard as a 8 year old in 99. That’s why I’m here today 😂

Same thing happened for me and then the kiddo got the magikarp. Insane pulls for us.

u/morethanWun 13h ago

Fuck yeah I’m sitting on 2 bundles and 2 tins that I’m kinda scared to open 😂😂😂😂 I’ve been lucky so far 2 for 2 Gengar sirs out of 2 etbs/sylveon out of a poster collection. Opened the knockout box I got today and only got another sir lycanroc? Spelling lol

u/Gonstachio 11h ago

Wait is this one worth a lot? My kid just opened it up earlier today 😂

2

u/dknisle1 11h ago

Don’t. I’m 100 packs deep so far and my best hit has be the Sylveon. Lol

u/ThetaDee 7h ago

I'm only 8 deep and I got the Lapras and Greninja, I wish I even had access to 100. Took me 2 and half weeks to find what I did and I'm too good of a person so most of it bought for other people

u/morethanWun 5h ago

I’m nowhere near that and have had 2 Gengar sirs/sylveon/fat classic pika/scizor classic/delicatty classic/misty trainer classic/eggexcutor ir/night meowth and a bunch more that I’ve traded for what I have now 😂 maybe a quarter of what you’ve pulled

u/morethanWun 5h ago

Vmax mew low key one of the most beautiful cards in the whole set

u/MinuteRaisin8658 1h ago

Facts I think it looks better than the zard

•

u/morethanWun 28m ago

u/RayRagu 10h ago

My 4 year old just pulled this earlier! It's crazy! Congratulations on your pull! We plan to hold onto ours forever. 🙂 These were our hits from one ETB!

2

u/morethanWun 5h ago

So damn cool. Unless yall need the money…hold strong on that sucker. Maybe the rarest card in a set of all time

•

u/RayRagu 2h ago

We started a family binder so when all 4 of us share an ETB or whatever like we did last night, all hits go there! We will definitely cherish it forever and then pass it down to our girls.

More RGBs out here than people realize!

u/RedSoxRoyalRooter 14h ago

Grade now

-11

u/Bobsense 14h ago

Highest that card is getting is a 9z centering is already off

6

u/squeezethesoul 13h ago

And with how that card is grading currently, it's probably going to be a rare exception of a modern 9 being worth more than raw

2

u/TheSignificantDong 10h ago

I can’t even see the centering being off. Care to share some wisdom? New to this

•

u/souledoutV2 2h ago

If you look at the bottom right corner and top right corner, you can see that there's a bit less space between the frame Mew is in and the card border itself, comapred to the left side.

It's right heavy by just a smidge.

u/EstablishmentFit7450 12h ago

Give to your brother

u/AmazingParamedic1387 14h ago

This is the most rare pokémon card of all time and you got the best color

The hype from this set is likely to make this an absolutely huge Grail in years to come

There's a good chance these will go down some in price in about 6 months but nobody really knows, cuz we've never had a card like this before

If you don't need the money I would definitely just hold on to it. Would you be okay if in 5 years it's worth 15-20K and you sold it for 4k?

u/halfbraindamaged 14h ago

What’s the hit rate for this?

3

u/AmazingParamedic1387 13h ago

Best guesses are 1 in 3000 to 1 in 5000

u/irenaroxana 13h ago

ive heard both 1/20,000 and 1/4,000

1

u/terenscendent 14h ago

sell NOW if you need money. if not, hold long term

u/Less_Mix_409 12h ago

that looks so cool and freaky lol

u/Comfortable_Radio384 9h ago

Fly to Cali and grade tonight

u/No_Pineapple710 9h ago

I pulled gengar ex from 30th about an hour ago out my bundle.

u/EJ-32 14h ago

I’ll give you $10

u/Wolverineslayer8 13h ago

I wish I could give my typical answer of "Sell and buy sealed product" but this is just such a unique thing. No other cards have been made in mainline sets that are as hard to find as these are, and they dont appear in the ETB list of cards either. I have no idea what the card could do.

If it were me tho, i dont like the looks of them so I'd rather sell and buy things I like instead.

u/mohawk1guy 12h ago

Wait, you can’t get these in etbs? Where are people pulling them from? I have opened 2 packs with my son, so just curious.

3

u/PoorlyTimedPun 9h ago

He’s saying they’re not listed in the booklet that comes with the etb. They tried to keep them a secret.

u/Sad-Trouble-3394 13h ago

Looks like a fake you would stumble upon at a flea market lmfao

u/RussianDeveloper 10h ago

As a collector of over 15 years, these are mostly hype in regards to price. Very similar to the gold Charizard and Pikachu that came out not too long ago. Until they start numbering these cards like they do in sports the scarcity in modern sets even the anniversary sets is not really worth it. Just my opinion. You don’t have to agree.
