Collecting The "Look What I Pulled" & Pull Rates Thread

I agree with you Athena. I only buy the blisters/tins/other such set for the card(s) that might be inside because not all of of us can get excellent pulls from these things.

I half dread the pulls that will be in the Kyogre EX/Groudon EX tins. Those are usually pretty terrible.
 
I actually very rarely get 3 non holo rares, I usually get at least 1 holo out of them. Though the holo pull ratios for Primal Clash are a lot lower then the ex pull ratios.


I think I just found a weird manufacturing error because since 2 of the ex's were upside down they obviously came from the same production line. They also had the same pack art in the same order and the ex was in the same packart, I'm wondering if every 3 pack that had those 3 packarts in that order had an upside down ultra rare(*cough*Not ultra rare*cough*).

I'm actually contemplating not buying a second box of Primal Clash and instead just buy these Ditto 3 packs. So far I've seen some good cards from 3/4 of the packarts, Kyorge has been a dud.
 
I went to Meijer and got some packs today from various sets. I got 3 3 packs, 1 from Furious Fists, 1 from Flashfire and 1 from Primal Clash.

The Furious Fists pack had 3 non holo rares funny enough, the Flashfire had a Toxicroak FA and the Primal Clash had a M Gardevoir Ex.

I also got some loose packs of Boundaries Crossed, Plasma Blast and Primal Clash but only got a couple holos, Vileplume which was the last holo from Boundaries Crossed I needed, even after opening 3 booster boxes and countless packs...

I also got a Rhyperior Holo. Both of the ex's are the 3rd ones I have of each actually.

I also ordered a full art from an old set, its one I've wanted for awhile but is so expensive I found a good deal on it. Opening packs from the set isn't feasible so I decided just to buy the 4 fullarts/secret rares I wanted. Also I've only opened 4 packs from this set ever and 3 of them contained the same non holo rare, the 4th had a bunch of Magic the Gathering cards in it. (Someone opened it, switched the cards, then taped it and returned it to the store. It was on the bottom of the pack and I had just started collecting again so I didn't notice until I opened the pack.)
 
I recently bought two booster boxes on Ebay and got all the rare cards I wanted!

From Phantom Forces:

AegislashEX
ManectricEX
MManectricEX
MalamarFA
GengarFA
and DialgaFA which I definitely wasn't expecting.

From Flash Fire:

MCharizardEX (dragon)
MCharizardEX (fire)
ToxicroakFA

This booster box was very low on the EX cards but how can you complain if you get both Mega Charizards?!

I also bought a Primal Clash Elite Trainer Box which gave me my only MegaFA (Aggron).

I also should stop spending so much money on these cards :3
 
I bought 5 3 packs from Meijer today

The Groudon pack was the only pack with no ex's/holos however I didn't have the pin yet or the Shroomish reverse.

But what was really exciting was the Enhanced Hammer secret rare in the Furfrou pack.
 
Bought a Primal clash booster box.

Managed to get SEVEN ultra rares:

Primal Groudon FA
Teamates FA
Gardevoir FA
Sharpedo ex
Trevenant ex
Kyogre ex
Primal Kyogre EX

These boxes have absolutely insane pulls lol
 
So I bought an elite trainer box (groudon of PRCL) and...

I did not get a single EX pokemon, ultra rare, OR secret rare; and I only got ONE holo card! The best card I got was a reverse holo ancient trait nidoqueen.
What is up with that?!?! Out of 8 booster packs in the elite trainer box, and everyone is telling me how good they are. I watched some youtube openings of them and people are getting like 2-3 EX AND M-EX pokemon out of these things D:

Am I just really unlucky, or what?
 
RE: So I bought an elite trainer box (groudon of PRCL) and...

It isn't guaranteed you get an EX. So I guess it is about "luck of the draw".
 
RE: So I bought an elite trainer box (groudon of PRCL) and...

I've bought 9 ETB's from Furious Fists, Phantom Forces and primal Clash and I've only had two that didn't contain an ultra rare, the second one had 3 holos though.

I haven't pulled more then 1 ultra rare in an etb, I think the odds of pulling an ultra rare in an etb are high however pulling more then 1 is rare.

Also what you don't want to pull in etb's are holos, because the company sees multiple holos as equal to an ex so if you get multiple holos you aren't getting an ex, unless you get a God box.
 
RE: So I bought an elite trainer box (groudon of PRCL) and...

So it's not just our luck that people have been getting good stuff from these things? We buy these things all the time and we usually get great stuff out of them, at least 1 EX for sure. Only twice it hasn't happened.
 
RE: So I bought an elite trainer box (groudon of PRCL) and...

Wow, just a holo card? That's crazy!
I was feeling poop about my pulls from Primal Clash, I've opened 23 packs, and I've only gotten 2 EXs, and 4 holos. Primal Clash just hates me :/ those packs were from 2 ETBs and just some random packs from my local comic book store. I just wish I could pull a FA from a pack, with how good the pull rates seemed. Sadly no luck :/

I've opened 20 loose packs from my local card store, and out of those I've pulled a primal Groudon EX and a full art Groudon EX. I know the store pulls them straight out of the booster boxes and sells them in the same order, so I was hoping for slightly better pulls, but overall I was happy to get 2 of the ultra rares I wanted.
 
Got a Furfrou 3 pack and managed to pull Groudon EX. I swear this guy keeps popping up as I had gotten 1 FA Groudon EX and 1 Primal Groudon EX during the prerelease, then another Groudon EX with the boosters I got as a prize and now this... :(

Make a Primal Groudon deck :)

Thats not bad, Primal Groudon is one of the best cards

Someone is complaining about pulling arguably the best EX in the set?

If they already have it...


My recent bcbm came in the mail today.

Since I'm not collecting Dark Explorers I decided to buy the 3 full arts and 1 secret rare I wanted from the set and found a good price on this one.

Good pack IMO. On that day I bought 3 packs because I was bored, my rares were two Swampert and the Ancient Trait Eelektrik. And then that RH Swampert. Utterly amazing.
 
I'm not kidding, I have good luck with Primal Clash. I got 2 packs from Walgreens on Friday or Saturday. I pulled a FA Sharpedo EX! And an Alpha Trait Whishcash, which is one of the best of them. What's next? A Full Art Primal Kyogre EX? I'm possibly getting the Primal Kyogre Collection tomorrow, so that's a chance, or I get a normal Primal Kyogre EX, but whatever.
