Well, on a random whim yesterday, I decided to buy two Pokemon TCG packs. I dunno why, but I did. And as I open up one, I think to myself, "Man, I remember playing this. I think I still have a deck at home." And I come to the rare of the pack:

Regirock *.

I almost... flipped, I guess you can put it. I knew the card was rare, and I pulled it. Well, I open up the other pack and think that, "Well, that pack should have gone last. I just know this pack isn't going to be as cool." Well, to my surprise, I pull:

Gyarados *. [Red Scale, dur.]

Now, I don't know about anyone else, but after I pulled these two, all I could think that something within this week, I was going to have huge bad luck.

Am I just paranoid and extremely lucky, or is karma going to bend me over and have its way with me?

Try not to think of it as bad luck. As a note, I should say there's always a rare in a pack- like 2 holo-1st edition Aerodactyles...

... On second thought, put it in a safe box and wear a helmut of bacon- you'll be fine. :muahaha:

Me: I remember when I had those. I also remember packing my rare ones separately when we moved and them being conspicuously absent when we unpacked.

I got a "Here Comes Team Rocket" in my first Rocket Booster pack. Much victory dances ensued.

Err, and a Blastoise in my first ever booster. Of course, I didn't know squat about cards then, so I wound up trading it for like 20 commons.

At least you weren't stupid like me Knarf.

I once pulled a holo yama, happy and such. And then I ended up trading it for a first edition common quilava(I have no cindaquil btw) because they trick me by saying first editions attack first.

While I got more out of it, I think I was told something stupid as well... I couldn't use Blastoise with some of the commons, or something.

I lost a Base Set Charizard.

Just lost it. No clue where it is.









....what?

On-topic, if I was speaking for myself, yeah, there would be bad luck coming. But I don't know for you.

Reginald - Aegis - Lv. 3 Gypsy (Rate his new sprites, please!)

Not really battling, unless some strange urge strikes me.

My Dark Blaistoise pwnz you.

Yeah, the Team Rocket set was the last one I bought cards in.

Actually, I take that back, I've got a few Kingdra's and stuff. Cool beans.

Don't worry guys, I got a good price for selling you out

Coolest thing I ever got in one of my first sets was when I got a Celebi in my first booster of the set he first appeared in.

Anyone else got a ****load of Ancient Mew cards from that movie? I've got, literally, hundreds of them. People at my school didn't want them so I took them for them, or traded a couple of commons for them.

Pretend I put something witty here.

This reminds me of when I got two really strong Duel Masters cards in 1 pack. (Or 2. I just know I got them at the same time.)

Okay.

You have been dressed down by Tookie for trolling.

This topic is now over. It can be mathematically proved that there is no adequate comeback to that simple fact.
