‘Uncommon,’ by Josh Burch is a wild card routine done with Pokémon cards. The effect comes with
everything you need and is ready to go right out of the box! Traditionally, the ‘wild card’ plot
of being able to take a Joker (the wild card,) that is among an assortment of indifferent cards and
just by rubbing the wild card Joker’s face against the face of an indifferent card. The indifferent
card somehow instantly changes into a matching wild card! This plot has been a favorite of
magicians.
If you’re like me and enjoy performing card tricks, but want to “give your audience a
break” from the standard playing cards. Then, ‘Uncommon’ is ideal.
You get an assortment of
Pokémon cards and specially designed sturdy patten cover sleeves, made, to fit standard Pokémon
cards and protect your cards throughout your many performances. So, if you like. You can swop the
Pokémon cards that come with the set for your favorite ones!
Josh’s routine is direct and
effective.
Each change is surprising right up to the moment that the changed card is handed out
to be examined. In Josh’s routine. The ‘energy’ Pokémon card being the least valuable Pokémon card
represents the ‘uncommon’ wild card. The more valuable assortment of Pokémon cards are displayed.
Josh’s ‘tale’ how he wants to protect his valuable Pokémon cards from his thieving brother by using
one worthless energy card and places it atop of his more valuable Pokémon cards in a hopeless
attempt to fool his brother into thinking that the stack were all worthless Pokémon energy cards.
But relies that wasn’t convincing. So, he found a better way. Both fronts and backs of the cards are
convincingly shown and yet by rubbing the face of the ‘uncommon’ energy wild card against the face
of an indifferent card. The indifferent Pokémon card changes into a worthless Pokémon energy card.
With each change displaying a colorful visual delight!
Then as if by some magical force. All
of the cards visually and instantly changes back to an assortment of valuable Pokémon cards.
In
the very well made video. Josh covers everything that you need to know.
He even gives a live
performance.
‘Uncommon’ is a fun interactive routine that you can carry as your EDC.
I
recommend ‘Uncommon’, by Josh Burch!
