My Journey Together Product Openings
Journey Together Standard Booster Box
Unboxing a Booster Box is thrilling! My 36-pack haul yielded highlights like N's Reshiram Illustration Rare, Iono's Bellibolt ex Secret Rare, and a Hyper Rare Spiky Energy. Beyond the big pulls, I found plenty of excellent ex cards for my decks. This box was a fantastic experience; highly recommended for pack-opening enthusiasts!
Journey Together Elite Trainer Box
Elite Trainer Boxes offer a premium feel. The N's Zorua promo was a standout, and the box itself is ideal for card storage. The included sleeves, dice, and condition markers are valuable for players. Nine booster packs provided enjoyable pulls, including Iono's Kilowattrel Illustration Rare, Articuno Illustration Rare, and a Veluza ex. While not as many hits as a Booster Box, the ETB provides a balanced experience of pack opening and collectible extras.
Journey Together Build & Battle Box
Build & Battle Boxes offer a unique experience. The prebuilt 40-card deck is perfect for immediate gameplay. My promo was Hop's Snorlax, a strong card boosting Hop's Pokémon by 30 damage. The four included packs delivered Mamoswine ex and Swinub Illustration Rare, complementing my deck. Fewer rare pulls than a Booster Box, but ideal for quick entry into the new set.
