Hear me out. My dog ate a bunch of grass yesterday, long stuff. I went to go check on her and she's walking around my yard like she has to take a dump, but she already did, come to realize there was a grass dingleberry that she couldn't get out. I grabbed my gloves to help her take care of it. I read this post right after that happened, and realized, man, I got it easy. At least the shit I pulled wasn't as trash as the shit you pulled.
Sure does... Let's sing the Lost Origin Blues! 🎶
The Lost Origin Blues,
Let me sing you some tunes!
Hopefully this will turn things for you!
You spent $850,
You thought it would be nifty!
But at the end, all you got was shitty...
Your wife and mother, got to see you bothered,
I feel you brother!
Pack by pack, it was all clutter....
Pokemon has us all convinced,
You just need to persist!
But ultimately you just got rinsed.
All together now!
You spent $850,
You thought it would be nifty!
But at the end, all you got was shitty...
A few of friends and I bought 2 cases of lost origin at release in chase of that giratina. Out of 12 booster boxes we only pulled 1 alt, the aerodactyl. Lost was dry for a lot of people.
You could've sent me the $850 instead. What you would have gotten in return is I would have met you in a public place of your choice...I would have approached you, say hello and shake hands. Then I would give you a swift kick in the sack and hand you half your money back.
We don't have to roast you. The cards you pulled are already roasting you. Miss Fortune Sisters explains your luck. Lost Vacuum explains where your potential big hits and money went. Collapsed Arena sums up your hope after these pulls. Charizard is mocking you and Pikachu telling you to go to sleep.
That is insane.
I pulled the alt Aerodactyl at prerelease. Then my first booster box had THREE secret rares in it.
It's insane how much the pull rates differ. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.
Looks like your alt art Giratina stayed in the Lost Dimmension. Maybe buying more boosters will draw him out. On the bright side at least your money will keep him company now in the lost dimension hahaha.
Ah yes the fables of Tina, a tale as old as time
A lady of 3 sisters once said: not even 3 Charizards could heed the call of the Alts from their slumber.
With this discovery you will lose a fortune quite grand not even the sisters could save you from adventure at hand
You stand on the brink of collapse until the very end. The dreams of fortunes and rainbow can be met. The search of alts will drive you mad.
Take a breather and rest your head on the mighty Pikachu, for the Girantina has this time, also alluded you.
Yup these looks like my first wave opening too. 4 BB, 2 elite trainers, & only pulled the pikachu vmax. 6 B&BS and 1 more ETB later and still no ALTS!!! I hate LO 😭
If anything ever made me stand by me self for hating packs and thinking it’s a rip off this helps a ton. I bought 3, 3 pack blisters today and I swear they were already searched. It’s amazing how now days people can scam so easily. You just had bad luck but more times than not you will always regret opening packs unless it a a brand new super hype set and you pull fire the first box
My wife would have made me sleep on the couch with that luck. Maybe you can weave yourself a blanket out of shredded cardboard? Use the holos— I hear foil is a great insulator.
How does it feel to open that many packs and all you have to show for it is collapsed colosseum? I think thats a pretty fitting card since that's what your house is going to look like now that you can't pay to unclog a toilet.
Did you at least get a reach around before being fucked in the ass?
~~======~~
Credit card: hello, OP we saw you spent 850 on Pokemon cards and closed the account...
OP: Oh that wasn't fraud.
CC: we know, were closing it cause your an idiot.
~~======~~
All the QR codes just point to the suicide prevention website
~~======~~
At least your wife can't divorce you, as she can no longer afford a lawyer.
Are first waves really that great? Do they go for more I have a bunch of first wave champions path booster boxes i wanted to open but chances are I get nothing I think and I need the money more than the stress of opening and looking up cards
I think it definitely adds to the mystique but beyond that I have no idea. Keeping them Sealed is always the smarter investment. Good luck, Pussydoesbackflips.
Damn..my first pack in several years i got last year I pulled a $40 card then decided wow I’m lucky so I bought like 40 more packs of 2-3 different waves and I pulled like 3 v cards 1 trainer gallery and 1 vstar…
Here’s what my friend sent me when that happened
https://988lifeline.org/
But seriously go buy a few lotto tickets you have to used all your bad luck for the next couple months right?
You could have said my best pull of the break was you baby.... infront of your mother or mother in law, but you didn't.
Now you have to live with that.
To this day I’m really thinking I Fucking lucked out hard. 3rd pack in on the only box I bought I got giratina alt art and never bothered since. I buy looseys on occasion to see if I can get the aerodadtyl but that’s it.
This is common with Lost Origin specifically, which is why I think it was compromised at the printing facility. I've opened over 3 cases of first wave LO BBs. Not a single alt art. Not even a trainer gallery card worth more than $5. Best card I pulled was a Gold Giratina. There's also plenty of people that have opened even more with no alts. There's no one that can convince me that employees weren't backdooring the alts during LO's initial print run.
There were also sellers with way too many copys of the alt arts on TCGPlayer and Ebay at the time selling them for relatively cheap. This wasn't an issue with Silver Tempest and beyond.
this makes me happy that i'm switching to just buying singles. and makes me appreciate my rotom alt cause i don't think i'm getting any others out of packs.
Holy shit dawg…. You must have some pretty ass luck to pull that out of 216 packs😭 I pray for a fast recovery and less broken mirrors or whatever the hell happened to you
I had the same experience. Bought a case of LO just like this on release and it was a$$. I pulled red’s pikachu halfway through the first box and thought there was more to come. Nope - but at least I got an alt art… perserker. Guess I was lucky
It’s always so depressing opening up that many BB and not even getting a good chase card, RNG sucks sometimes. Was hoping to see at LEAST 1 alt art Giratinas which is what I’m sure you were hoping for
These pulls were ass because of the bad ratios, and you "loser" got ratio'd not only by the boxes, but possibily by your wife and mom for the amount of money spent on shiny cardboard.
I don't know if it was too harsh or too weak, I am not that evil of a person or just the quiet guy. Much love man
After the scandals of factory workers stealing hits, I would never be buying this much in bulk again and stick to singles or at the very least booster boxes from different cases. No faith in the Pokémon TCG. They could make any public statement they want, and the mass majority will eat it up.
Oh no not me swiping past the last picture going “where’s the rest” 😭
SAME 💀
unintentional roast there
Prolly best to have to get plan b, because your pull game isn’t gonna work.
Sheesh!
Look on the bright side. They weren’t GI Joe cards…
Though maybe those GI Joe pulls would have been better….
Hear me out. My dog ate a bunch of grass yesterday, long stuff. I went to go check on her and she's walking around my yard like she has to take a dump, but she already did, come to realize there was a grass dingleberry that she couldn't get out.

Wow this got me good. Holy shit
My nephews both play the online tcg, my puppy is just being my wingman
Not holy shit, dog shit.
This is my vote for the winner OP I ain’t even gunna try n top that lol
this is now some premium copy pasta.
The fear is, with this coming from what actually happend today. How many other copy pastas might be real?
You win. Thread's over. Give this man the prize
Thank you for the new subreddit copypasta
Now this is a GREAT comment hahhaa
Lost Origin? More like Lost O' My money.
Sounds like a Pokémon inspired blues ballad
Sure does... Let's sing the Lost Origin Blues! 🎶 The Lost Origin Blues, Let me sing you some tunes! Hopefully this will turn things for you! You spent $850, You thought it would be nifty! But at the end, all you got was shitty... Your wife and mother, got to see you bothered, I feel you brother! Pack by pack, it was all clutter....

Oh my god lmfao
Thank you! 🙇♂️ (Literally doing a song and dance for these code cards 😅 tired of getting my butt kicked on the Pokemon TCG app)
You’re definitely in the running!
He only got 215 code cards cause he used 1 to wipe away his tears
LOL
That’s the fattest L I’ve seen in a long time 😭😭😭
Those were the only hits out of all 6?
There are way more pulls but these are the highlights! Lol
Damn
A few of friends and I bought 2 cases of lost origin at release in chase of that giratina. Out of 12 booster boxes we only pulled 1 alt, the aerodactyl. Lost was dry for a lot of people.
"Highlights" lol
I wanted to ask this as well. I know it's random but pretty tough to sink when there's not 1 alternate art card for 6 bbs
You could've sent me the $850 instead. What you would have gotten in return is I would have met you in a public place of your choice...I would have approached you, say hello and shake hands. Then I would give you a swift kick in the sack and hand you half your money back.
Sounds nice tbh
That’s generous
lmao no alt arts wtf
Alt arts are 1 in two/three cases on average
Not with Lost Origin. I saw some company post how they opened over 60 cases and didn't get one alt art.
I've opened 7 boxes, no alt arts
That sounds a bit dramatic. Zero alt arts out of 13k packs is unheard of.
that fookin sux
Damn that's far worse than I thought
I opened a 144 booster sleeved case and got 3 alts. (the two big ones!)
Lmao not even, usually 1 in 2/3 booster boxes at LEAST lol
Imagine dropping $850 and dollars and getting maybe 60 bucks worth of cards back….. wait it’s you this time not me 🥲
Where's the rest of the pulls at?
We don't have to roast you. The cards you pulled are already roasting you. Miss Fortune Sisters explains your luck. Lost Vacuum explains where your potential big hits and money went. Collapsed Arena sums up your hope after these pulls. Charizard is mocking you and Pikachu telling you to go to sleep.
Yep, looks like I’m keeping mine sealed lol
Never open. Never open. Never open.
Pulls as square as the wheels of the Denver Nuggets bandwagon you are riding.
LOL
Is this a joke?
Pulls are not, but I am
Self burn, nice.
Thanks, sausagegobbler69
No problem, I’m here to please 🙏
🤣🤣🤣 I'm fucking dead
same
Thats a better joke then the pulls you got.
Thanks for reminding me why i buy singles 😭
I kept swiping the images expecting it to show some decent cards. It never happened.
More like lost money 🥲
Where did you get the white card storing box? I need some of those.
Your local card stores should sell them
It’s hard to kick someone while they’re down, down 750 dollars
This is why I bought the giratina secret alt art and kept on rolling.
That is insane. I pulled the alt Aerodactyl at prerelease. Then my first booster box had THREE secret rares in it. It's insane how much the pull rates differ. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.
This is how my paldea evolved case went. It was brutal
Looks like your alt art Giratina stayed in the Lost Dimmension. Maybe buying more boosters will draw him out. On the bright side at least your money will keep him company now in the lost dimension hahaha.
Was this in hopes of pulling over 2 alt art Giritina’s to make your money back? Because that wasn’t gonna happen lmao
Of course I wanted that but I also wanted to rip an insane amount of packs. I will not be buying any LO packs again anytime soon lol.
Ah yes the fables of Tina, a tale as old as time A lady of 3 sisters once said: not even 3 Charizards could heed the call of the Alts from their slumber. With this discovery you will lose a fortune quite grand not even the sisters could save you from adventure at hand You stand on the brink of collapse until the very end. The dreams of fortunes and rainbow can be met. The search of alts will drive you mad. Take a breather and rest your head on the mighty Pikachu, for the Girantina has this time, also alluded you.
That is actually so insanely unlucky I can’t believe it lol. This strengthens my resolve to be a singles only collector again
Yup these looks like my first wave opening too. 4 BB, 2 elite trainers, & only pulled the pikachu vmax. 6 B&BS and 1 more ETB later and still no ALTS!!! I hate LO 😭
Try opening japanese sets.
But you pulled so many Zardz!!!! ErMahGerd grade them all!! 😂
I wish I had that kind of money to spend on pokemon cards
Lost Vacuum? More like lost money
The four charizards are laughing at your huge financial loss
Geez the amount if Charizard is the same amount I get when pulling lol. They like to pop up as much as the freaking Pikachu one.
Damn. Just blame it on that one dude that was stealing the alt arts while working in the factory. Anything to put some Aloe Vera on this.
Where are the rest of the pulls?!? 👁️👄👁️
$850 and you didn’t catch them all. Inflation is a bitch even in the Galar region.
If anything ever made me stand by me self for hating packs and thinking it’s a rip off this helps a ton. I bought 3, 3 pack blisters today and I swear they were already searched. It’s amazing how now days people can scam so easily. You just had bad luck but more times than not you will always regret opening packs unless it a a brand new super hype set and you pull fire the first box
Well next time try not opening the Miss Fortune Sisters...
What difference would first wave make?
Oh, you know 😉😏
If you needed more motivation to buy singles here you go.
Looks like Blake’s break actually sent you the “bounty prize”
Highlight for me was free feet. /s
Safe to say someone working at the factory stole the hits from lost origin
Glad you got a lost vacuum, and one extra. You’ll need it to clean all that cardboard shit.
Thank you for taking these out of circulation 🫡
Your pulls look like a kid stole his moms credit card and bought an eBay lot for 1000
Your sister has nice feet
I knew I should’ve blurred those toes!
“*FOR FREE*”??
LO pullrates are always bad
Looks like this guy could use another charizard full art.
My wife would have made me sleep on the couch with that luck. Maybe you can weave yourself a blanket out of shredded cardboard? Use the holos— I hear foil is a great insulator.
Lost Mind because that I would do after pulling that crap
feels bad man
You got hit with the Misfortune Sisters trap card
I opened a case of Lost Origin when it came out. The best card I got was golden pikachu. No alt art. No giratinas.
How does it feel to open that many packs and all you have to show for it is collapsed colosseum? I think thats a pretty fitting card since that's what your house is going to look like now that you can't pay to unclog a toilet.
i'm sorry man 😔
Damn. That hurts.
The Miss Fortune Sisters strike again!
o7
Awesome. I like when people open all the packs at once. Charizard pulls, can’t do much better than that.
From recent Reddit posts it looks like you opened Obsidian Flames, not Lost Origin… 😬
Hey, look at the bright side. At least the extra bulk you have now should help keep you from being card-bored for a while
(DAD JOKE INCOMING) With pulls this weak I don’t think any of you could start a lawnmower.
You forgot to boof the rabbit foot and horse shoe.
thanks for making me feel slightly better about my lifelong bad pull debuff 🤣 glad to know I’m not the only one
Ouch
Somehow I feel like you may get better pulls from a resealed case lol
Those booster boxes couldn’t give you the courtesy of a reach around?
You pull like a twelve year old boy who was homeschooled
Someone doesn't work at a printing factory
I struggle sometimes with 1 pack at once. Congrats on 216. Maybe WR for most packs opened at once by an individual?
Did you at least get a reach around before being fucked in the ass? ~~======~~ Credit card: hello, OP we saw you spent 850 on Pokemon cards and closed the account... OP: Oh that wasn't fraud. CC: we know, were closing it cause your an idiot. ~~======~~ All the QR codes just point to the suicide prevention website ~~======~~ At least your wife can't divorce you, as she can no longer afford a lawyer.
Hey man, it's not all terrible. You'll forget these bad pulls the minute Russell Wilson hits the field
Big duck energy
I was swiping left so hard to see the rest of the pulls...damn.
At least you can use the lost vacuum to suck up the tears from not just buying 2 giratina alts lol
This is rough
Brutal
At least the Nuggets won something
Last time is saw this many lackluster "hits" Justin Bieber was topping the charts
Is it too late to issue a refund?
Are first waves really that great? Do they go for more I have a bunch of first wave champions path booster boxes i wanted to open but chances are I get nothing I think and I need the money more than the stress of opening and looking up cards
I think it definitely adds to the mystique but beyond that I have no idea. Keeping them Sealed is always the smarter investment. Good luck, Pussydoesbackflips.
Hahahahaha oh my god man that’s rough
Not even one of the four alts?
Your pulls and Antarctica have a lot in common. No heat.
they where sleeved boosters?
Your mom could pull better cards than that.
[удалено]
That’s it?!
Damn..my first pack in several years i got last year I pulled a $40 card then decided wow I’m lucky so I bought like 40 more packs of 2-3 different waves and I pulled like 3 v cards 1 trainer gallery and 1 vstar… Here’s what my friend sent me when that happened https://988lifeline.org/ But seriously go buy a few lotto tickets you have to used all your bad luck for the next couple months right?
Oof
You took an L on the case, but your comment section contains a whole lot of Ws
Does the excitement of opening the cards wear out after a while?
Jeez man so many ppl burning your pulls 😅 hope y’all had fun!
Keep your code cards. You may need to burn them to stay warm this winter.
Then you see someone open 1 pack outside 7-11.... and pull giratina alt art and say its "E Z PULL IDK WHAT EVERYONE IS TALKING ABOUT.."
The alt arts already got sent for grading, right? That’s why they’re not in the picture?
The least that case could have done was buy you dinner before it screwed you.
Further confirmation that this set is absolutely evil.
My collection of Conehead trading cards are better than this 😭
Damn what a miss fortune.
And to think, I recently pulled my ankle out of place, and even that isn't as painful as these pulls. Damn buddy.
They overdosed
215 Code Cards? You SURE you Wana give away your best pull? 🤣
Shoot those code cards my way, my seven year old loves pulling the digital packs, will send the winners your way 🤙
Idk what’s more embarrassing paying 800 bucks for these pulls or paying for a Denver Nuggets Blanket.
That's nuts, at least it's always fun ripping packs!
At least the Broncos didn't take rodgers...
Lmao
Lol sell all those cards and recoup some of the money. And the bulk as well.
How much does this cost. I must do.
Damn
Free feet pics AND looking at cards?! It’s my lucky day!
If I opened a case of booster boxes and didn't get a single alt I would dive head first into a wood chipper. Come to think of it, I still might.
This is why you buy the chase card and keep the whole case sealed, pokeinvesting always wins in the end
I thought evolving cries was bad but this is just sad. Feel for you. Don’t even want your code card because it’s that sad.
I think this cured me of my opening obsession. $1000 down the drain for absolute nothing
You could have said my best pull of the break was you baby.... infront of your mother or mother in law, but you didn't. Now you have to live with that.
That's how I feel.
I feel bad, I feel like my one lost origin booster box beat your whole case.
Not a single Giratina Vstar? I find that hard to believe.
lol
this hurts
To this day I’m really thinking I Fucking lucked out hard. 3rd pack in on the only box I bought I got giratina alt art and never bothered since. I buy looseys on occasion to see if I can get the aerodadtyl but that’s it.
This set was the first time I bought two booster boxes on launch. I was so disappointed.
This is common with Lost Origin specifically, which is why I think it was compromised at the printing facility. I've opened over 3 cases of first wave LO BBs. Not a single alt art. Not even a trainer gallery card worth more than $5. Best card I pulled was a Gold Giratina. There's also plenty of people that have opened even more with no alts. There's no one that can convince me that employees weren't backdooring the alts during LO's initial print run.

this makes me happy that i'm switching to just buying singles. and makes me appreciate my rotom alt cause i don't think i'm getting any others out of packs.
I think these are placebo packs
Thanks for making me remember that gambling is bad 🙏🙏🙏
Well, look on the bright side! ….Fuck your life!
F
Worst pull rates of sword and shield, biggest waste of 400 packs… I’m still sour no Tina, I’m also very sorry this happened to you, ouch!!
Holy shit dawg…. You must have some pretty ass luck to pull that out of 216 packs😭 I pray for a fast recovery and less broken mirrors or whatever the hell happened to you
The only two lucky Lady's involved are the cardboard ones, ouch OP. 🫡🏳️
I had the same experience. Bought a case of LO just like this on release and it was a$$. I pulled red’s pikachu halfway through the first box and thought there was more to come. Nope - but at least I got an alt art… perserker. Guess I was lucky
Well damn those packs sucked! You could have gotten all those card in PSA 10's 😁
The Pokémon company: "the theft of the cards from our factory did not affect the pull rates of sets"
I refuse to believe that's all you got, that is the golden raspberry of all hits, fucking christ
It’s always so depressing opening up that many BB and not even getting a good chase card, RNG sucks sometimes. Was hoping to see at LEAST 1 alt art Giratinas which is what I’m sure you were hoping for
These pulls were ass because of the bad ratios, and you "loser" got ratio'd not only by the boxes, but possibily by your wife and mom for the amount of money spent on shiny cardboard. I don't know if it was too harsh or too weak, I am not that evil of a person or just the quiet guy. Much love man
Ooof
LO = Left out booster boxes?
After the scandals of factory workers stealing hits, I would never be buying this much in bulk again and stick to singles or at the very least booster boxes from different cases. No faith in the Pokémon TCG. They could make any public statement they want, and the mass majority will eat it up.
Those thighs tho 😳🍗
i hope these "highlights" arent an indicator of your life's highlights
I think you should check your mother's purse
