Md is right around the corner, But i need GE Cards

[Gowk]

I just bought a box of GE at a local comic store for $92+tax (total ~$100). I could have bought online for $95 total, but I'd have to wait a week or so. The box distribution was 15 Rare Holo, 31 Rare, 119 Uncommon, 184 common, and only 1 LV.X. I got 1 or 2 of most of the Rares and Rare holos, 3-4 of most Uncommons, and 5-6 of most commons.

The best set for you really depends on what kind of deck you want to make, and what cards you already have. If you can't decide, maybe you can find a friend to pitch in with and buy one of each. It will be a lot easier trading with one friend to get the cards you want.

I also think that buying Theme decks can be a good bet if you find a deck that has the cards you want. They typically have 3 Rares, and 11 trainers. Online a Rare pokemon will cost $3+ and the trainers cost ~$1. You should be able to find them for $12 at Target or Toy's R Us. I usually buy a theme deck if it has 2 rares I want and 3-5 useful trainers. I bought 4 of the GE Darkrai decks because it has 1 Darkrai, 1 Beedrill, 2 Quick Ball, and 2 Roseanne's research. For $50 I got 2 nice decks.

Good luck,
Jeff

See I need Beedrill, Claydol, and a few others, and especialy trainers. So what did you get concerning those cards? What did it look like? Do you think it paid off? So since you baught one, what would you recomend?

So japense cards trade for more? so i need alot of cards, would it be worth it to get a japense box becuase or rarer cards or a us box becuase more chances?

And whats bbettter SW or GE?

Well if you want Lv.Xs then get a Japanese box. Japanese DP4 and DP5 have 2-3 Lv.X per box while there is usualy only one in an English box.

Beedrill is only good in a deck that is specifically designed for Beedrill. Here is a run down of good cards that can go in most decks:
Phione (MD Holo), Pachirisu (GE Holo), Team Galactics Wager, Roseanne's Research, Professor Oaks Visit, Claydol, Bebe's Search, and Rare Candy. These will all be legal after the next format change (which happens in August) and you will use some of these cards in any deck you build. Get these (and an assortment of basic energy) and some pokemon that you think good together, and you will have a pretty decent deck.

Plus, I'm sure people would be willing to trade English rares and holos for JPN Lv. Xs.

If you want to make a certain deck, like most people mentioned, and the main cards and or tech cards are in this set (for example, if you want to build a G&G deck, then you should buy a box of Secret Wonders), then you should buy that box.
