News 'Islands Waiting for You' and 'Moonlight of Alola': Japan's Next Sun and Moon TCG Set!

This time only two full art supporters. My wallet will be happy... Oh those Ninetales... Sorry my wallet :D
 
That's it? A promo that is a reprint of the older one? (Well, that was from Guardians Rising Drampa) Who illustrates that card?
 
Opened 3 Japanese boxes of Guardians Rising last night (2 dark, 1 light). The pull rate seems better than SM1.

SPOILER ALERT: I got exactly 4 GX or better pulls from each box. All the boxes had 1 full art / secret rare in them. Not only that, but at least two of the boxes had the full art in the 3rd to last pack slot and a GX in the last pack slot - I'm not sure if this was the case with the first box I opened, I wasn't paying attention but definitely the case w/ the 2nd and 3rd. Mapable?

Also, I have the worst luck in the world - SEVEN Japanese SM booster boxes so far and not a single hyper rare. :'o(

1 got one box of each in my SM2K box I got 3 GXs (none being FA) and in my SM2L box I got 4 GXs (one being HR)

Well, reprints have happened plenty of times before, so I'm not sure why it's such a shocker now :p
To me it looks like the illustration is by match (who also did the illustration on the Drampa from the set) :)
 
Curious, does anyone think Metagross will see play...?

Seems like a slow Bronzong, and it's GX attack is undone by N.
 
I find it kinda amazing and ironic - they changed Death Rogue GX for the typical 'Never Say Die' edit (Even though they never attempted to censor it in any of the cards Pokédex entries - looking at you Kangaskhan), yet they change Bloody Eye into the even more kid-unfriendly Bloodthirsty Eyes.

I'm tempted to say one step forward and two steps back, but eh, count your small victories :)
