Journey together isn’t a hitter. It’ll sell because people are hungry but it’ll leave a sour taste in their mouths. We’ll see about the set after.

Journey Together honestly seems like one of the weakest sets yet in Scarlet & Violet. Bringing back a beloved concept is one thing, but the set is still small and half assed. I think a lot of people, scalpers included are going to be disappointed in it within a few weeks of release. If there wasn’t such disgusting hype in general at the moment it would probably end up like Pokemon Go and Shrouded Fable.

Been getting worse over the last 3 years, and this year even worse than ever. Not getting better any time soon.

Plus black and white and rumored tcg pocket sets and 2 video games likely in the next couple years, we’re cooked chat.
Cookie-Dunker
Isn’t there a mega set coming after Team Rocket? It’s going to be a long couple years. If I get anything this year, I just want Mewtwo SIR/IR.
MAGI-System_
They forgot the Black and White set and Mega Sets lmao
sandalsnopants
There are way too many sets.
Tedboyfresh
i honestly wished they reverted back to 3 to 4 sets a year. having to keep up with 6 sets is just too much
Buckanater
Ugh we are so screwed.

Both Gen 10 and the 30th anniversary next year is going be hell, it will make 2021-2022 seem like nothing.
averageweebchan
and then mega evolutions

Watching everyone say journey together is going to be a stinker, I’ll be happy to collect in peace hype will happen in 3/4 years when the next boom happens 😂
MidoriTheAwesome
People saying Journey together won’t hit are severely underselling N’s popularity.

I can’t even get old stuff anymore. My target is always ransacked, either completely empty or stolen and ripped product is just tossed back onto the shelves. Walmart is similar. Today I tried checking BestBuy, completely sold out, nothing left.

I just want 151 jungle and fossil back

It doesn’t help that I’m really excited for the Team Rocket set 🥲. I just like Team Rocket
(Also where is the logo from? I was under the impression it hasn’t been leaked/revealed yet aside from the name)
SqualNYHC
I told myself when I finished 151 master set, “I’m gonna get the team rocket master set!” Now I know I’m not gonna be able to even get it.

Mega evolutions are coming back too 😭

Please god no 😖
I like buying Pokémon not selling it 🤣

Let’s take a deep breath and relax. It may not look good right now, but if you truly like Pokemon, you’re OK with playing the long game and buying/ripping cards when they’re available. People have short attention spans, and scalpers probably even more so. The average scalper, especially one who knows little or nothing about pokemon (let alone enjoys the hobby), will not last as long as you may think. Right now we’re already near max hype imo, and I’m trying to be optimistic that it can only get better from here.
palehorsem4n
Just wait until they announce a 1/1 card on the 30th anniversary…
FlashAnaconda
Repeat after me: DO NOT BUY OVER MSRP FROM SCALPERS
Elementium
Yeah.. It’s gonna be a year of unfun for people like me who aren’t rushing out to buy as much as possible. Like I’d LOVE the Team Rocket set but I know I’m never gonna get a pack.
And of course they won’t print enough because they want them sweet sweet dollars.
Southern_Yak_443
Manage to get 1 surging spark etb at a little bit above msrp, which is nice since i like to collect 1 etb per set releases but have no luck with prismatic and definitely not optimistic about journey together, team rocket, etc
DeathclawTamer
Positive – it is amazing how good the sets are this year. Its been a while since I have been excited at every single release.
Negatives – Idiots who want to get ‘rich’ quick and don’t want to get the cards.
HoodCitySavage
I still haven’t gotten a single pack of prismatic evolutions and I’ve gone to look in the stores atleast a few days each week since it dropped.
If I ever actually see one of these scalpers I’m robbing them on the street
ClutchWhale07
This is getting exhausting. Really considering taking a break from modern sets for a while and just try to collect obscure, vintage sets.
TeaAndLifting
Don’t forget the Megas and BW sets.
Ok-Weird-5392
Hold strong collectors lol a lot of Jordan’s are releasing this year these scalpers will be busy
thehumanbagelman
This meme is hilarious 🤣
ClericalRogue
I mean, theres been no surging sparks, prismatic or journey stuff in stores here. I feel like theres no choice but to skip them at this point. Only stuff i ever see stocked is mascarade and temporal and lately even thats been scarce. Im dreading rocket- i’d love to do a binder collection of it but i know how popular its going to be and know theres probably no chance we’ll get even close to enough stock to meet demand.
Flat-Ad4902
I’ve completely stopped participating until it evens out, and I’m pretty new lol.
The state of things is just ridiculous. It isn’t worth all this.
Lamlot
I just want a few blister packs but I cant even have that!
7thseal89
Just another set for scalpers to take. Truth is they going to take all the upcoming sets as well. We will see all the new sets this year disappear off shelves and be double market price. More and more people are getting into Pokémon whether it’s for collecting or selling them cause the hype is insane. Wishful thinking is thinking the bubble will pop. It’s not unfortunately….
