wow, dont think i will be getting them anyway!
Where were these being sold? If money isn't that much of an issue, then don't go for budget cards unless you're certain that they're official cards (and not from the World Championship decks). Just go to a local collectible/card shop and buy some boosters, or buy at Target.I'm not sure if this has been asked before but this thread is massive and the site is lagging. Sorry if it's been asked already.
I'm trying to get back into the TCG, but I noticed there's quite a bit of unofficial card packs. Like, one has a Japanese Piplup on the front and says it contains this certain amount of Japanese promos (I think 9), some just contain all rare cards, one actually includes that old movie 3 Entei card with two massive old school Pokemon stickers for like a little more then a dollar.
I'm wondering if these are fake or not. For sure they're not official packs, but since I haven't been into the TCG for a good number of years I'd like to know what's up. If necessary I can go back to the store to take photos. XD

I got my first two hgss booster packs today from my girl for valentines day ( yes) and I got a meganium prime in a donphan cover pack, and a blissey in a lugia cover pack. Do you get a prime in every pack or was I just lucky?
Are you talking about the Fairfield Company items? I was wondering if Spirit Ruby was talking about the same thing, but then they said that one of those items cost a little over a dollar. I'm not aware of that company pricing anything that low. And I've never gotten any fake cards from anything they've sold. Granted, I've only ever bought one non-officially-packaged item from them before. That thing came with cards from various new and old sets (came with the promo Rhyperior LV.X though) and even had about five cards in Spanish and some other Spanish-like language I couldn't recognize.I've seen these before at places like Wal-Mart and Target and one person at my League has bought a few. They do sometimes have fake cards in them. The package is bundled together by a 3rd party company. Usualy they just buy commen cards in mass quantity off of somewhere like ebay and then put them in those packs. And some of the time they don't check them very well and fake cards get in. I strongly recomend not to get these kind of packs. They usualy only have old cards in them anyway. If you want to buy packs like these then always look for the Nintendo/Pokemon copyright on the back of the package. The bad ones either don't have the Nintendo/Pokemon copyright or say something like "Contains factory sealed packs, packaged by "insert name here"".
I remember reading a while back about a booster pack contents change, how each pack has a reverse holo, a normal holo, an energy and 8 others. Was this for HGSS and if so, is it the same in the rest of the world?
There are 5-7 Primes per box with 6 being the most commen amount. So you get an average of one Prime every 6 packs.
u might get a ho-oh top and a lugia bottom imagine if u put them together!
