Collecting The English Booster Box "Pull Rates" Thread

RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Hey guys,

I have a challenging question today regarding pull rates of EX Unseen Forces. I'm wondering how many Ultra Rares you can expect in a booster box but I'm also wondering how many booster packs it will take (on average of course), to pull a Lugia ex. Personally, I opened 20 unweighed packs from this set and didn't receive a single Ultra Rare so I am assuming they are quite difficult to pull. Not only that, but there are a more ex's in this set than any other. For those reasons, I believe Lugia ex to be the one of the rarest English Pokémon ex cards. Even more rare than Charizard ex. :) Not to mention Lugia ex was highly playable when the set was relatively new. Anyway, thanks guys for any help!

Who told you they were unweighed ?

I bought them in person from a guy who owns his own store. All of his products are perfectly legit and most of his booster packs he sells directly out of the booster box. He's been in the business his entire life and I've had Ultra Rare pulls from his packs many times in the past. They're unweighed. :)

2 freezebolt boxes:

3 EX, 1 ACESPEC
3 EX, 1 ACESPEC

was hoping for a full art :-/
Hi,
I received my Freeze Bolt booster box a few days ago... Opened it, and I got two ACE SPEC cards, 1 EX, and 1 Full Art. Eeeehhh, I'd rather get your pulls....
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

So it seems like a Freeze Bolt box guarantees 4 Ultra Rares, but there aren't really any specific pull rates (so far noted via this thread) for each type of Ultra Rare.
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

How were the rates for the Dragons Exalted boxes? When the judges/profs opened their boxes at the end, 2 of them only got 1 ex in their box, and it wasn't a FA. The other one received only two ex, no FA once again.
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Dragons Exalted Boxes are not guaranteed it appears. I got 3 FA EXs, an EX, and a Secret Rare in my box, and I've seen a box only give 2 EXs. I heard they were pressed for time, so they might have messed up the packaging of the boxes =/
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

What are the pull rates for holo cards in POP 5 packs? I recently opened like 50 and received more Gold Stars than holos D:
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Actually I found out that the holo POP 5 cards were released in value packs, not inside the normal POP 5 packs :p
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Yeah, I just had someone tell me that you can only get holos from the value packs, not the actual packs :p

That is correct.
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

I just pulled 3 Drifblims out of 4 Dragons Exalted packs. How is that possible?
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Random = random. Deal with it. At least you didn't get the same useless rare and reverse out of one pack like I have too often, even though I haven't bought many boosters during my life.
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Is there a general pull rate for any given secret rare in a booster box of Dark Explorers and/or Dragons Exalted?

Roughly one Secret Rare per two Boxes have been my results. :)

Awesome! Thanks for your input. I'll be opening a bunch of boxes in the next couple of days so I'll post my results.
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

I'm pretty sure that it's 1 in every three boxes. But there isn't really a set ratio :p
 
RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

Not sure if this belongs here, but this guy opened a box of Dragons Exalted and got 3 EX Full Arts, 1 regular EX and 1 Secret Rare....

RE: The "Pull Rates" Thread

I wonder if the crazy pull rates will continue on with the official release. My box shipped out today, and I have all of my fingers and toes crossed that I don't get screwed with a bum box if everything's still out of whack.
