Because I'm still obviously confused.

Anyway, I want that full art Zekrom, hopefully I'll be able to pull it in my box.
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Zekrom EX just looks absolutely amazing. Anyone have a confirmed count on the ratios of holos/EX's/FA's/SR's in a box?
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Maybe 102 is the red "pokemon catcher" (not zoroark or Gardevoir)?

Gardevoir won't be in this set for the fact it invalidates the other copy in the set, zoroark might as they let hydregion in
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Zoroark is in the set.

#100 - Emboar
#101 - Chandelure
#102 - Zoroark
#103 - Hydreigon

A question about pre-releases. If you go to one, do you have to play the game? Can I just go there, pay the fees, and then get my booster pack and goodies but not play/make a deck or anything?

You can, but the way it works is that you get 6 packs in the beginning and two more, plus your deck box and promo, after the 3 games. So you'd pretty much be screwing yourself if you left early.
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Zekrom-EX full art looks amazing! You really have to look back at the original image to truly see what the art looks like (I thought it looked different than it turned out)
P.S. has anyone noticed that the EX full arts look more like someone drew them than the regular full arts? Dark Rush has this too, and I suspect it will be continued. Black & White, Emerging Powers, and Noble Victories seemed to have the full arts looking more CGI than the new ones. The EX oness are outlined in silver/gold.
Also, does anyone know how rare the chances of pulling a regular full art are?
And what is the "special engraving" in the EX full arts?
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

I really hope I get both Zekroms at my pre-release tomorrow...the fullart EX looks amazingly awesome.
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Ill ask the judges tomorrow at my pr about the pull rates. I like this set, though its sorta sad, NV makes a bunch of cool decks, then ND wrecks most.

Prerelease promo is Arcanine

Omg thank you! I've been wanting to know what the promo was going to be all week. x3 Double happiness that it's Arcanine. <3
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

Just a note to everyone; at my prerelease, the regular holo forms of Reshiram and Zekrom were extremely common, as well as the Rare Arcanine. Six of each Dragon was pulled at the PR, which was quite surprising to me. Just putting this out there. It may not be a consistent pull rate, but it was interesting at the least.

@Magnezone_Elf: The rare one.
 
RE: (1) 90+ 'Next Destinies' Scans [1/26]

At my prerelease today, I saw a total of x3 Mewtwo EX(reg), x3 kyurem EX(reg), x3 Kyurem EX FA, x3 Shaymin EX FA, x1 Reshiram EX FA, x2 Reshiram EX reg, x2 Zekrom EX reg, x2 Zekrom EX FA, and x1 Regigigas EX reg. I also saw x1 Chandelure shiny and x1 emboar shiny.

I myself pulled complete trash.

any info as to what the last shiny is? We know about Emboar/Chandy/???/Hydreigon. since Hydreigon is 103/99 and Chandy is 101/99, there must be one Shiny in between.

Did you notice which place the regular EX's were in the packs? (Meaning was it in place of the reverse, like Primes were, or in the place of the rare card?) I've been curious to know how they were going to handle these, since there are SIXTEEN ULTRA RARES in this set... >:| (From a collector's point of view, that's a nightmare. ...Unless you're relatively rich or have very good trading material.)

And this has been discussed in the past 3 pages. The 3rd shiny is Zoroark. (It has to be. The only other shiny that could be between Chandelure and Hydreigon, given how cards are organized now, is Archeops. But that would be silly.)

So would I be able to get my 6 packs and just watch some people battle it out, then when all is said and done, I can get the rest of the stuff? Do people actually do this?

I heard the regular EXs took place of where the holo should be. IDK about the Full Arts.

It seems EX aren't all that rare. I saw two videos on Youtube about the prerelease, and both of them pulled an EX (one dude had 6 packs at the prerelease, and he let someone else he knows on Youtube do his deck box. The deck box had only 2 packs, but the girl who did it pulled a Reshiram-EX and a Zekrom holo in the other.

@Skeleton Liar: The videos on Youtube had the EXs as rares, not reverse holos.

I started looking on YouTube after Dragon Pokémon mentioned doing that. I can confirm that yes, they do take the place of the rare/holo.

I haven't seen a video confirming this, but after talking to someone on YouTube, it seems the FA's, and most likely the shinies, also take the place of the rare in a pack. So that means there are a total of 47 different cards that you could get as a rare.

12 Holos (assuming the Reshiram and Zekrom reprints are holo; I swear all the ones I've seen look non-holo though, but whatever)
19 Rares
27 Uncommons
29 Commons
16 Ultra Rares

I also heard that the possible ratio of both regular EX's and FA's combined are 2 to 3 in each box? There's no way to prove that yet, but it wouldn't surprise me at this point. =| And IF that's true, that means you could buy 5 booster boxes and not complete the set.

I'm not sure how many people are actually reading this far in the topic, let alone reading my horribly long message, but here's a question. Wouldn't it have made more sense to maybe make regular EX's like Primes, replacing reverses? You'd get about 5 EX's in a box, and 2 to 3 FA's also. That would also make EX's more common, which would probably make their prices lower, making them more available/affordable for more players.

I mean, is that assumption wrong? It's totally possible that I'm mistaken, because I certainly don't know everything. But can anyone tell me why the regular EX's couldn't have been like Primes replacing reverses? (Other than the obvious fact that TPCI is a business, and their intent is to make money. The higher the amount of rares, the lower the possibility of getting one of those covetted Mewtwo EX's, for example, will be. Lower chances = more packs bought, trying to get multiples of one specific Ultra Rare card.)

(No one will probably read this or reply, but I figured I'd try anyway.)
