Beep Beep Beep…

Please assist our store reorganization by clearing anything breakable from the lockers and display cases by June 18th. Hey PI-Fans, We're going to be taking the opportunity to do some sprucing up of our store in the month of June, and while we're not going to be closed during this period, we're still going to have plenty of things moving around.* While we will do everything within our power to ensure the safety of items remaining in our store, some of us have unfortunately not passed our P-5000 Power Loader certification exams, and we cannot be entirely certain about the contents of the Legendary Encounters: Aliens deckbuilding game.

Thanks for your attention.. - [...]

PokéMonday: Once you pop, the fun don’t stop.

Today on PokéMonday. We're taking a look at Booster Packs. More specifically how to properly* open them for the most suspense. Let's start with opening the pack. So when you open your pack, you're going to get your 10 cards as well as a Pokémon Trading Card Game Online code card for a digital booster pack from the same set. Here are the Cards from a pack that was just opened. As you can see the last card in the stack is not a Rare Pokémon. This is because the Out-of-the-Pack card order is 5 Commons 1 Reverse foil (A BREAK Card if you're lucky) 1 Rare or Ultra Rare 3 Uncommons So in order to have the Rare be the last card. we are going to need to do some re-ordering.
