While I felt making a showcase for the Anni. Ticket scout pulls, I figured I’d still make a showcase on my paid scout pulls just for the fun of it. Initially, I only wanted to only show off my Poke Fair pulls, but I decided to also include my pulls for both the Seasonal scout and the Variety scout since the CS stages matched up perfectly with my scout picks.
I will mention that I only pulled on 3/5 of the Poke Fair Scouts, since pulling on all five is a massive commitment of money. That said, I’m happy with the units I pulled and I’m ok with skipping the last two PF banners for monetary reasons. Hopefully Carmine will be offered in a paid scout soon so I can pull her sooner rather than later. Until then, Enjoy!

0:00 Mela and Armarouge
Mela was the unit I’ve wanted to pull ten most this year for a two reasons. First, she is my favorite Team Star Boss and I always pull for favorites. And Second, she’s a Fire damage dealer, which is something I’ve been severely lacking lately. Needless to say, she was top priority for paid scouts this Anni!
That being said, it shouldn’t be a surprise that I ended I impulse-investing into her before I came up with this video idea lol. Decided to use weaker units since I put her to 3/5, and she still did some good damage! Definitely looking forward to using her more in the future!
4:00 SS Bede and Iron Valiant
Always thought SS Bede was an interesting unit, and considering how mediocre my Special Fighting types are, I figured he’d be a good choice for me to pull. Plus, Iron Valiant is my favorite Paradox Pokémon, so that had a factor in my decision as well lol. Unsure if I’ll invest in him any time soon, but regardless he’s still very good and he’ll definitely be useful for Fighting stages later on!
8:02 SS2 Elesa and Thundurus
Similarly to SS Bede, SS2 Elesa looked like a fun unit, plus I’ve been wanting to get a new Electric Terrain setter for a while. She definitely has taken Classic Elesa’s place as my go-to ET setter for harder content. Also, holy crap this unit is strong! I initially tried to show off her ET setting skills and paired her with TCG Iono, but she ended up doing most of the damage and completely overshadowed Iono! She’s definitely staying reserved for harder content only, because this unit was WAY better than I expected her to be!
11:36 Palentines Marley and Shaymin
While Mela was top priority for paid scouts, Pal. Marley was a close second as she was a unit I really wanted to pull but she came out a very unfortunate time. Although I also really wanted Holiday Lillie (and she’s arguably better than Marley), I generally prioritize favorites when it comes to pulling units, especially when it comes to seasonals.
Just like with Mela, I invested her near immediately since she was a unit I really wanted to use! So far she seems very powerful and I know she’ll be a big help in Rally as well with her rare role combo (or at least, offensively rare). Well, see you guys next year when I scout for Holiday Lillie lol.
14:58 Variety/TCG Cynthia and Spritomb
I usually NEVER pull for Variety’s and completely skip them when available, even with all the really good ones that have come out recently (the only exceptions being Ball Guy and Variety Marnie). That said, TCG Cynthia looked too enticing to not pull to for! My Ghost roster has already gotten an insane buff this month, and TCG Cynthia only adds fuel to that fire lol. With max BP, her B Move is a bomb and her aoe sync is very good too! I definitely plan to cake her in the future as well, since Support/Sprint can always use more damage dealers for Rally!

Also only pulled on a few of the selects (1 pf and the seasonal and variety ones) because I didn't have enough paid gems for the rest. Also got SSA Elesa alongside Summer Gardenia (one of my biggest white whale units for over a year now) and variety Melony for Ice tower purposes. Pity there wasn't a Special Costume banner though.
OMG, WE CHOOSE THE SAME SYNC PAIRS! (except for Bede, Marley and Cynthia).
But, in my case I choose Mela and Elesa from Master EX Scout (Volo and Gloria). And I picked Summer Cynthia, but if I have enough paid gems, i would like Cynthia TCG
Huh, that Cynthia seems pretty cool
I only did the seasonal select; I did the 25x paid scout and got Anni Floria early, and chose Summer Cynthia for my seasonal. Love TCG Cynthia. I got her when she came out from a single and I was really surprised at how strong she is for a variety. Got Kabu, Merchant Volo, SS Iono and Alder from 6th Anni tickets for Poké Fairs, seasonals were SC Lillie, Pal Erika, SC Zinnia, and Holiday Jasmine, and varieties were 2/5 Kris Jolteon and Hop Zacian. Got Rei and SS Acerola from Volo's banner. 5/5 SS Diantha, Benga (I do have Arc Alder so he's good for me) and 2/5 SS Piers from Poké Fair tickets, and Oleana and Arven from 10-pair tickets. I almost feel as if while I was spending paid gems on mix scout and some on seasonal and one tier of the Master Fair scout, I got selects worth of fairs from anniversary tickets alone so I have no complaints or regrets.
