I’d like to point out that I love how Exeggutor’s trunk/neck extends through the window of the deck box!

I was lucky enough to get a couple of packets but clearly I have upset the Pokemon gods as my pulls were not blessed (see below), my favourite card is the Arceus Prism Star (also pictured below. However I wasn’t able to create a strong deck or able to complete evolutions with the cards from the packets.
