    Obsidian Flames has great illustration rares in it. Pidgey, Cleffa, Pidgeot, and Gloom to name a few. I think Obsidian gets written off too quickly as a Charizard set and I'm happy I got to pick up so many great cards for so cheap.

    44 years old, never bought Pokemon TCG until I saw some of the 151 art… of course 151 was sold out so I got some Obsidian Flames to rip. The ETB and Promo card, and pulling the Gold ‘zard had me hooked! Probably 600 packa in to the hobby now, great content thanks for sharing!

    I have been blessed to pull a good and expensive lot of cards this past year since starting my collection. My favorite pull has been the Gholdengo EX. It was the only time I opened a set and got exactly what I wanted. My favorite cards are the Pidgey, Pidgeotto, and Pidgeot Illustration rares. Seeing these reminded me of when I was a kid playing Pokemon blue and catching a pidgey. After that I fell in love with Pokemon

  • @anima05

    I pulled the exact two cards from 151 that you showed off, haha! And I have to agree, they're gorgeous and so nice to look at. 2023 in general was a very busy year for the hobby but still so much fun! With the new pokemon generation, silver borders and a lot more illustration rares I am so happy to be in the hobby right now :) Thank you for this overview of the treasures that I have missed (crown zenith slipped by so fast!)

    Lots of good cards from 2023 for under $20, but Celebrations is the king of all sets when it comes to that price point. Shining Magikarp, POP 5 Umbreon Gold Star, Birthday Pikachu, Base Set Blastoise and Venusaur, Mew EX, Rayquaza EX etc. Just such an outstanding set of gorgeous vintage reprint holos from 1999-2014. Those cards are next to start climbing in value in my opinion.

    • @GoldenEdgedGreg
      @GoldenEdgedGreg Před 7 měsíci +1

      They are completely different kinds of sets, one is original art based on a classic pokemon set, the other is classic art based on original art, celebrations is rare art that most people would never get to see or hold. Massive difference, so different that it’s almost impossible to compare, imo

    • @TheBirdGroves

    • @enthused7591
      @enthused7591 Před 7 měsíci +1

      @@TheBirdGroves I agree with that. Generations is its own set of unique arts that weren't very popular in 2016 at release, but with time and scarcity, people fell back in love with it, but the anniversary specialty set nature is very similar in structure to Celebrations, and anniversary sets do not stay cheap for long. As soon as the market gets any idea whatsoever that Celebrations is getting scarce, I think it'll double in value in weeks.

    I only just got back into the hobby in the last few months so dont have a ton of exposure to 2023 as a whole, but I'll say 151 is an incredible set. Gen 1 just has so much nostalgic power that cant be denied. At least until the younger generations of pokemon enthusiasts get older and have more disposable income 😅

    @bbq1040 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I think that the people who don't like scarlet and violet era are the loudest on social media. But if you ignore the few all caps posts that dis on it you'll find that it's a pretty well liked era overall so far. The artworks are beautiful and you don't have to pay an arm and a leg for them. 151 was underprinted so it feels like a more popular set but really the artworks are not on par with the rest of SV era. It was a relatively small set and 151 has the nostalgia factor so I think it was fun to open, however, it doesn't have a lot of playable cards which is unfortunate. That said, I think every era should get the 151 treatment because it looks really cool in a binder when the pokemon and the set numbers go in numerical order.
