If there is a regular mega ex and than a full art version of the shinys than this set is going to be even more epic. Whew!! Glad they finally leaked some sort of image of what the shinys will look like in the sets!! The anticipation was killing me
Jumbo M Rayquaza-EX from 'Ancient Origins' in 'Shiny Rayquaza-EX Box'
- Thread starter Water Pokémon Master
- Start date
Orrrrr...what if its a regluar mega ex but with the gold color and texture of the secret rare gold trainers??
They seem like full arts because when comparing the image in the box to the mega rayquaza in Roaring Skies, the box seems closer to the full art m-ray than the 2 reg arts.
I honestly cannot understand how you guys can't see that it's clearly a FA...
In that department, I think they might keep them as secret rare FAs, without a regular version, because they're shiny pokémon... they're gonna be expensive but kinda makes sense...
Also, technically, Dialga-EX FA from Phantom Forces was a secret rare... and I believe the Reshiram and Zekrom from Legendary Treasures were too but I don't have time to check now lol...

While it does make sense for this card to be expensive if it only is available as a secret rare, that does not promote an accessible competitive format for all players. If this is going to just be the SR and no easier accessible version of this card is made available, I hope to Arceus that the card sucks so that way players don't have to worry about obtaining this card in a decent amount to be used in competitive play.
You know... That legendary mini-set is a thing. We still know nothing about it, right? There could be regular versions of these things in that. Could totally be ignorance on my part, though. (I don't think it's even been mentioned that Pokemon-EX will be in it.) Still, it's possible.
We know that an Emboar EX and Togekiss EX are planned for that set, nothing outside of that however. So we could definitely see non-SR version of this card in there and that would be satisfactory (depending on international releases)
That's cool, but I'm just waiting to see how we will be getting Tyrantrum EX.
Confirmation on that?
My knowledge was Togekiss and Emboar were a trainer kit style dealio and the LHC would have two new EXs.
Emboar EX and Togekiss EX are not from the mini-set, they're from a deck of their own... Though it was confirmed there are 2 EX cards in the mini-set...
edit: ninja'd
I'd expect a Tyrantrum EX box personally.
Yeah, just to confirm, it was confirmed as a box in this article, coming out at the same time as Ancient origins: http://www.pokebeach.com/2015/05/ancient-origins-tyrantrum-ex-box
That's right, my bad got the things mixed up there.
Hey , they gotta cater to the collectors too!!! Hahaha
They cater to collectors whenever they do any alternate SR variant of a "regular" card. The inclusion of FA's to begin with is catering to collectors and don't get me wrong, I'm a collector first, competitive player second, but me having 1 of each FA EX for my binder doesn't mean I can build a deck with just 1 of each card.
(Oh and I am figuring you are not being super serious with your post judging by the exclamation marks and the haha's so don't take my post here too seriously either
)
This would be a dream come true!
Hahaha glad you caught that!! I hear what your saying though , these secret rares are for sure going to get pricey , ecspecially if they are full arts ( which i am still not convinced yet that they are , not enough evidence lol)They cater to collectors whenever they do any alternate SR variant of a "regular" card.

This is just THE coolest frickin thing omg what a great time to be a Shiny Pokemon card collector <33
after some analyzing, it looks like the Mega attack name graphic can be seen on the jumbo just above the Rayquaza-Ex promo and to the left of the Primal Clash Pack, and it looks like it could be レイク, which is the end of エメラルドブレイク, AKA Emerald Break. You can also barely see part of the dakuten mark (") in ブ right above the promo.
Technically, they COULD get away with using the same attack name while having a different Ancient Trait, since it doesn't appear in the same set as the other card that has Emerald Break and it would have a different collection number.
JUST SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT
