Gold Pikachu Sleeves/ Orange Pokeball sleeves

I don't know about the silver ones.. But the gold ones are about the same quality as other Japanese pokemon sleeves. I'm guessing based on the texture because i've never used them. They aren't really compareable to our prerelease sleeves, the Japanese pokemon sleeves and our prerelease sleeves aren't the same quality. The Japanese pokemon sleeves are more slippery however are very good quality and don't wear as easily as some of our prerelease sleeves.

The silver pokeball and the silver pikachu seem to be more durable then the other character DP sleeve from Japan IMO. I know I used dialga , Palkia and the three DP starter sleeves and IMO they are not as durable. The silver pokeballs sleeves are super as I used one set at league and they held up very very well. Hope the orange sleeves are as durable as I only got myself one set of 60.....
 
I am currently using golden Pika sleeves (the ones with the silver pika on it) and they are really good quality. I expected they will hold up as well as normal PB but they are much better.
 
I have found the Silvers and Gold Pika sleeves to be very close with the gold a slight edge. The silver ones I find curl at the edge after a couple of tourneys. The orange ones I haven't played with yet but the feel good.
the pre sleeves aren't even in the same park.
 
I have the silvers in hand, the quality is really outstanding and it's smooth. But, the edges curl up after a couple of games.

They are sleeves....you play with them on your cards! Now, with some of the rarer sets, you may only use them at certain tourneys like Reg's, Nats or Worlds. I wouldnt risk my "rare" set at league or a BR.

IMO, EASILY one of the hardest colors to find. I only have 2 sets, got them from Brian maybe 2
years ago, played them once at Fl. regionals last year( I miss poli-stall ;)

We have multiples of almost every Japanese sleeve, but not the orange ones. Take that
for what it is worth.
 
I think during my trading I have managed to get a total of 3 Orange Sets of Sleeves. I am not sure how many I have now, but I know I have atleast one set.

If I had a set, based on they're value, I wouldn't play with them PERIOD, but thats just me
 
If you ever played with Lugia EX (back in the day) or Charizard EX or even Wailord EX, you are playing with more value in the deck. Wailords go for at least 40-50 bucks now and my son ran 4 of them in JRs when he used wailwall to get to and @ worlds.

I'll probably crack out one nice pair of japanese sleeves for the prof cup this year. It will be the only tourney I will play in this year! Gotta make it special. (Plus, the Profs will be kind with their cutting :wink: )

Some Professors Will :cool:

Keith. I have found 55 of the Orange ones for you (in packs of 5 (11 packs of 5, don't get excited))

Had 57 but had to give Ditto 2 when 2 of his split!

We will find the last pack of 5, and then on we go!
