The best way to open a pack of Pokemon cards

This is how to shuffle your cards so you can get the rare and reverse card of each set in the back. This only works on the newer packs(D/P/P HG/SS) with 10 cards, not on the EX's POP's etc. I will be opening a pack of Stormfront to give you a more vivid idea, once you open your pack flip it to the other side where the poke balls are, then take 3 from the back and hold them in one hand, then put them in the front of the pack or infront of the next 2 from the back, i shuffled my pack of stormfront and this is how it went, Ponyta(common), voltorb(common), magnemite(common)Pokeblower+ trainer card(uncommon), duskull(common), magnemite(common), haunter(uncommon), great ball trainer card(uncommon)infernape reverse(reverses can be any type of card)(rare), and my guaranteed rare of the set, bronzong(rare) you can tell if they are rares, uncommons or commons by looking into the right corner of the card, circles are common, diamonds are uncommon and stars are rares, but you only have a maximum of 2 rares per pack so if you get more the pack is probably fake, this always works on all of the newer cards with 10 inside of them but it has a different order for the packs with 9 cards.

what? They actually put the cards in a certain order each time? That's...weird.

I usually split a pack with my bf. We each get half, and only look at the back at first....then we go through our half and trade when we're done ^^ It's fun.

They only put the reverse and rare cards in a specific spot in the pack, the rest are random, and that does sound fun I should try it sometime
