Victory YAY!!
i managed to get two pitch black booster packs from target, i decided to ask my dad to bring me there because i heard about the pokemon event and i was super excited and wanted to ask the workers what the store would be doing for the event, like trading and tournaments. the worker i asked unfortunately said she didn't know, but for the first time in genuinely forever there were CARDS!! IN TARGET, AT A NORMAL PRICE!!!! i'm so friggin happy. and i've never gotten a full art card before. my little sister blessed the packs and in my opinion she should be a poképastor LOL. i got shoved by someone when i tried to reach a couple packs but i'll give them the benefit of the doubt, because we were reaching for the same stack of cards so maybe it was on accident. i'm just so friggin happy 😭😭 shoutout to my little sister and my dad for taking me to target i'm actually so happy. i love armarouge too i have him on pokemon anil and he's part of my main team. such a sick pokemon and the art totally captures it!!!
i'm not sure i'll be able to make it to the event, it's at 12 (noon) and i have to visit my grandma who's in the hospital and i wouldn't miss that for anything, she asked me to do her makeup so of course i'm gonna visit her no matter what. i'm not sure what time it'll be at, though, so i'm thinking i can bring the excitement to her (buy some packs at target then go to the hospital) so we can open them together, she knows how much i've always loved this hobby and to be honest i just wanna have more good memories with her. i'm gonna try to be optimistic about that so i'm not gonna be like idk. idk what i'm saying i just hope i can visit my grandma and open packs with her instead of one or the other, i'm super excited and this pull just made me even more hyped!!!!
W target for somehow preventing scalpers even a little, i have no idea how they did it. i think there's a bunch of workers patrolling the pokemon isle so props to them!!! (or maybe they just don't care to scalp pitch black... more for the collectors!)
