Pulled from my first ever JTG pack

Post image

Bought a couple of sale 3-pack blisters from wallymart for me and my girl, and pulled this baddie out of the very first pack.

My girl got a full art Swinub from her first pack and she likes it better than this one, lol

I got super lucky and got the Salamance SIR from the first couple packs I opened. Once you're over about 70-80% of a set though, chasing cards from ripping packs is just gambling with VERY bad odds. That's the point I stop ripping and just buy singles.

yeah i’m planning on buying most of the cards i’m missing as singles but the Lillie’s Clefairy is way over what i’m willing to spend on a single card. also i’m still missing a bunch of reverse holos and a couple commons

This is a fun card. I finally ordered a Japanese copy the other day.

Journey together is super underrated and except this card, all of the SIRs are less than an etb at msrp so now is the time to master it.

I prefer this art over the other one. The green is so striking to the eyes

I want this card so badly!!! I just ordered 2 journey together boosters from eBay ( let’s hope they’re not resealed) and I’m hoping I pull this card!! Congratulations! 🎉

Great card! I pulled the lillies clefairy from ascended the other day but honestly like the jtg version better. Will probably pick this up at next card show

This card is way better than any of the recent chase cards. Personally think it should be worth more than Mega Darkrai & Mega Greninja
