The Deck
Forbidden
Rumors are circulating in Japan. Among the thousands of sealed boxes, a handful contain the impossible: Deck #101 .
This isn't just a card game. It's a modern-day treasure hunt for the most coveted map of the decade.
The Ghost Deck
Officially, there are only 100 numbered variations. But the rumors were true. There is a 101st secret deck , a statistical anomaly distributed sparingly.
Inside, there are no common cards. This secret deck features the triumphant return of the Johto and Unova starters in their Mega Evolution forms. Raw power: Mega Meganium ex, Mega Feraligatr ex, and Mega Emboar ex.
Note: Although Roitiflam is sometimes criticized for its aesthetics by the community ("ugly pig"), its presence in this deck makes it an essential piece of the collection.

The 1000 Decks Experiment
To unravel the mystery, carton_knight achieved the impossible: opening 1,000 sealed decks .
The result is undeniable and illustrates the absolute rarity of these treasures:
• 0 copies of Secret Deck #001 (Gold Charizard)
• Only 4 copies of Secret Deck #101
The Gold Obsession
Within Deck #001 there is a secret variant (SR). The standard Charizard disappears to make way for a textured Gold version, a true masterpiece of printing.
