Right. I’ve gotten quite a bit of cards from Evolving Skies/Celebrations/random stuff. Finally got around to taking pics of the cards. Still need to get them into a binder. I’ve gotten enough cards that at this point that it’s become a pain to go through them in the box I have. It’s so hard to enjoy the cards with the way I have them stored.
Starting with the newest card, Dark Sylveon V. I still find it weird that there isn’t a Japanese version yet (that I know off), but it looks cool. Still need to pull that Umbreon gold star. Maybe I’ll pull a second Charizard and use that to pay for Umbreon at the rate I’m going.
Now some more Evolving Skies. I’ve had horrible luck with this set. For how many Eeveelutions there are, I haven’t had many hits, and I think I’ve pulled as many Rayquazas as I have Eeveelutions… Oh well, guess I’ll have to buy my chase cards and then move onto probably doing the same for Eevee Heroes.
Up next, probably my favorite era of cards. The artwork and card design is my favorite, and now I finally got the complete set in Japanese (minus Eevee). The Umbreon, Espeon, and Jolteon are unlimited. That makes 3 copies of the Japanese Umbreon. 2 1st editions and 1 unlimited. Now I have to get around to completing the set in English.
On to some Undaunted/Call of Legends. I love the artwork style, especially the style in the Vaporeon art, although I do have to say Vaporeon does look somewhat off. Either way, glad to have them.
Up next, Vivid Voltage. I’m pretty sure this completes my VIvid Voltage set, but I’m sure if I look at my spreadsheet I’m probably missing something.
Now a mix of cards from different sets. Just a mix, nothing special really, but all cheap cards, so happy to get them.
Now a Japanese Jungle Vaporeon. I know the Japanese holos of this era are insane compared to the English ones, but this one is in insanely good condition, and made my jaw drop when it finally came in. The picture just doesn’t do it justice. I normally don’t really care at all for swirls, but this one has a swirl and just made it even better. Guess I’ll have to go back and find a similar condition Japanese Flareon, because mine doesn’t pop like this one.
Next, some GX cards. Was missing these and decided to go for them. The artwork doesn’t really do it for me. It’s nice, but I feel like it’s missing something that was make it great artwork. Oh well, can’t complain. An eeveelution is an eeveelution.
Now on to non-eeveelution cards but the eeveelutions appear in the artwork. After thinking about it, I decided to include the badge cards from Evolving Skies since it does include the name. I’m pretty sure I pulled all the Japanese ones, but I’m going to have to go look for them. Still haven’t managed to get my Eevee heroes all into a binder yet. Gotta get around to that.
Got the Interviewer’s Questions from both sets it came in. Got that Leafeon in the background artwork.
Here, a mix of different appearances. I swear I could remember having Dawn Stadium from when I collected when I was younger, but couldn’t find it, so oh well. It’s a cheap card, and I think one of the few cards from my childhood I can’t find. I’m sure it’s in the garage somewhere. Also got the All Night Party and Karen cards. Can’t get enough of Umbreon. Also managed to get the reverse holo Drapion with the weird looking Espeon.
And final update for this post. The Munna card where it’s snuggling with Eevee, and the Altaria with Sylveon from the Radiant Collection.
The collection’s definitely grown a lot, but still have a lot that I need to go for. Especially with my goal of getting as many languages as i can for Umbreon. It never ends. But it does make it fun. I should probably set a goal of something to complete. Oh well, I’ll figure it out.
