Opened 2 boxes of roaring skies yesterday.

First box:
- Rayquaza EX (c)
- M. Rayquaza EX (c)
- M. Rayquaze EX (dragon)
- Gallade EX
- M. Latios EX
- FA Latios EX

Second box:
- Rayquaza EX (c)
- M. Rayquaza EX (c)
- M. Gallade EX
- FA Shaymin EX
- FA Thundurus EX
- FA Wally
- SR Vs Seeker

Was a bit dissapointed after the first box because of no Shaymin, but the second box was a lot better with three Full Arts and a Secret Rare :)

On the first six boosters of the second box I managed to pull 4 Carbink, was very dissapointed in that. I think we got 8 Carbink in total, I don't know why that's a rare...

Roaring Skies:
FA Wally, Shaymin EX, M Gallade EX, and Dragon Rayquaza EX :mad:
I'm really upset of these pulls; last set it was 3 FAs, 3 EXs, and 1 SR. This really proves that boxes are all over the place.

I just got my first Roaring Skies Booster Box, with the Rayquaza trainer box thing that comes with the dice and energy.
Pulls where pretty decent, but I will note that I got no EX's, FA's or secret rares in the Rayquaza box.

1 FA Wally
1 FA Winona
1 Hydreigon EX
1 Rayquaza EX (Colourless Intensifying Burn)
1 FA Mega Rayquaza EX (Colourless Emerald Brake)
1 Mega Latios EX
1 Galade EX
1 Thundurus EX

Quite possibly the best box I have ever opened, but alas... No Shaymin EX

Okay I want to know the Pull rates for...

  • Legendary Treasures Shaymin EX Full Art
  • Legendary Treasures Meloetta EX Full Art
  • Primal Clash Teammates Full Art
  • Roaring Skies Shaymin EX Full Art
  • and Phantom Forces Diancie Holo

The Radiant Collection full arts are usually 1-2 per box.

For the rest, keep in mind that you get 0-2 full arts (very very rarely more) per box of a regular set, and around 12 holo or ultra rare cards altogether. Then look at how many holos and/or full arts there are in that particular set and those are your chances of getting a specific one.

Your better off just buying them as singles. You will more than likely spend double the money trying to pull them out of packs as opposed to buying single.

7 Holos

Kangaskahn EX Full Art
M Kangaskhan EX
M Charizard EX #13
M Charizard EX #69
M Charizard EX SR #107


Really couldn't have asked for a better box!

I went to pre-order 2 boxes of ancient origins earlier today and the guy at my local game shop offered me to buy the 72 packs from their launch kit instead. He did tell me the pull rates were better in launch kits then in booster boxes and I was wondering if anyone tried it with earlier sets. I don't really have any reason not to trust him and I haven't bought any packs from those kits but I'm guessing it can't really be worse then a 4 ex box. (which seems to be the minimum from what I gathered here)

Opened up my first English box in years, got a box of Primal Clash

Pulled

Ultra's:
Wailord EX
Kyogre EX
Primal Groudoun EX
Gardevoir EX
Camerupt EX
Archie's Ace in the Hole FA
Trevenant EX FA

Holo's:
Milotic
Medicham
Manaphy
Blaziken
Excadrill


I didn't pull many holo's but I haven't opened a box for a while, so the pull rates have changed. Would you say this was a decent box or no ?. I personally am happy with the Kyogre EX & Gardevoir EX and the Milotic and Manaphy holos

My AO box had only 10 holo (or better) cards in it altogether. Pathetic. Why can't they even guarantee the standard 12 anymore? :/

I think between 6-8 holos. No jolteon.
This set has been very forgiving to me.
