APokemonYouTube content creator has found rarePokemonTCG packs at Walgreens in products that may otherwise get passed up because of how vague the labeling is even to a fan. The packaging doesn’t let buyers know precisely how rare thesePokemoncards are, but one bundle, in particular, may be enough to bringPokemon TCGcollectors to Walgreens rather than another retail outlet.
YouTuber PokeRev has unveiled some extra value inPokemon TCGpacks from Walgreens through a video in which he shows collectors what they should be looking for in the store and where they may find them outside the usual shelf stock. BecausePokemon TCGsets come and go, retail outlets often have a lot of the booster packs that are no longer being printed, while others like Kohls’s and Kroger have aHalloween-specificPokemonsetfor a limited time. Because of this variety and that Walgreens, McDonald’s, and plenty of others get their own uniquePokemoncards,Pokemon TCGcollectors often go from one location to the next to get the next rare pull.

PokeRev’sPokemon TCGYouTube video begins with the content creator going through Walgreens to locate the trading card aisle, which had a Snorlax tin that he was interested in, but not much else. Stumbling across a Virizion V Showcase box, PokeRev reveals that it comes with three randomPokemon TCGbooster packs with the pack-in foil promo card and a code forPokemon TCG Live. In total, PokeRev bought the aforementioned Snorlax tin, two Virizion V Showcase boxes, a set with Articuno, Moltres, and Zapdos, a mini portfolio with aChilling Reign booster, and a pack of twenty randomPokemoncards that PokeRev admits are “usually terrible.”
According to PokeRev, a friend of his tipped him off to the WalgreensPokemon TCGpacks, and he realizes why when he cracks into the Virizion V Showcase box during a YouTube video to see that each of them had 2 Lost Origin booster packs, and one from the baseSword and Shieldseries. The baseSword and Shieldbooster packs are rare to come by in retail outlets, and PokeRev notes in his video that he wasn’t expecting to see them in a showcase box for thePokemon called Virizion. While he points out that booster packs from this set only usually cost around $3 and stated that overall, the product wasn’t worth the price, some Sword and Shield collectors may still be able to fill out their decks through Walgreens.
Although somePokemon TCGfans have lamented the fact that some retail outlets getexclusivePokemonproducts, others responding to PokeRev’s video expressed their need to go to Walgreens for the Virizion V Showcase. Most responses to PokeRev’sPokemon TCGvideo praised the YouTuber’s luck with booster packs, while one hinted that some retail exclusives aren’t as valuable as the Walgreens ones.
