Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Dark Explorers ex/shiny Pull Rate

I had 2 EX's and 1 FA EX in all of 4 of my boxes, and a Shiny in one box.

What is scary though is that the pull rates on individual trainers are worse than Pokemon Catcher was in Emerging Powers. I've opened 4 boxes today, and of most of the trainers, I only have 4-6 copies, that's including both regular and rh.

That's weird. At my pre-release, I got 6 copies of Juniper, 2 cheren, 2 Dark claws(1 RH), 2 Ultra Balls, 1 Thugs, 2 Random Recievers (1RH), 1 Dark Patch.

from 8 packs total.. XD
 
Between my 1 box, 2 Pres, and 2 drafts, I think I got at least 4 of every TSS in the set. At least, 4 of all the ones I wanted. I'll doublecheck either tonight or tomorrow when I re-organize my stuff.
 
Ive opened 2 boxes and have not got a venusaur. 3 blaziken and 2 empolion.
I also had the same issue with trainers. 5-6 copies of each between the 2 boxes.

Just realized that I didn't put 2 boxes worth of uncommons into my stock, so those numbers were for 2 boxes instead of 4, which isn't as bad.

I think I nailed playsets of every rare except Blaziken.
 
FWIW, my box had-
Holo Rare-
2 Venasaur (1 was RH though)
1 Empoleon
1 Zoroark
1 Blaziken
2 Volconora (1RH again)
1 Klinklang
2 Blissey (1 RH)
2 Haxorus (Interestingly, both were in the same pack, with one being RH)
Think that's all the HR's in the set.
1 Krookodile (Just saw him as I put cards in binders, and due to the poster below)
3-4 of every TSS + a RH of all but Old Amber, Twist Mtn, N, Cheren, and Random Reciever. 5 Dark Patch, Juniper, and Hooligans.

And as for Ultras....
x1 Groudon
x1 FA Darkrai
x1 Regular Darkrai
x1 Pokemon Catcher Gold

So yeah, I'd say pull rates aren't bad at all. Pretty happy myself!

I went out and bought 30 packs yesterday and ended up with:

Shiny Archeops
Tornadus EX FA
Tornadus EX
Entei EX
3x Venusaur (1 RH)
3x Empoleon (1 RH)

It was a good day. lol
 
There's a thread about an error zoroark in the collecting section that pretty much confirms a second print run. I think the Nobel victories print run was a big deal because it would have come so far after the set was released.

No, that doesn't man anything. They have multiple different runs during the each print run. They need to replace the ink, which can lead to problems. It doesn't mean anything as far as a second print run.

Wouldn't the two different FA Zekroms from B/W confirm multiple print runs? That's just something I assume as a layman, feel free to correct me.

No, it would mean the ink was running low. It happens, and has happened before. Things are perfect during a print run, stuff happens.

My 2 boxes:
Box 1: Raikou-EX FA, Tornadus-EX and Kyogre-EX (Why did it have to be Kyogre?????)
Box 2: Tornadus-EX FA, Entei-EX and Raikou-EX.
 
I just opened a box and got between 4-6 of each trainer. One RH of each.
My ultras were FA Tornadus EX, Groudon EX, Entei EX. I dodged the Kyogre bullet but got the two mediocre EXs.

2 Empoleon, 1 Zoroark (boo).

No Shinys.


My two friends opened boxes recently and got weird pulls:

1 FA Entei EX, 2 Kyogre EX
and
1 FA Kyogre EX, 2 Entei EX

I never saw that happen before.
 
Have opened 6 boxes in the last two days and have a total of 8 Kyogre! No Tornados and only one Darkrai, come to think of it, only one raikou as well, 4 groudon, 4 Entei and the rest were Kyogre...
 
Got Tornadus EX FA, Raikou EX FA, and Groudon EX.

The Tornadus EX FA was 5th on left, Groudon 6th on left. Was weird. If this was during a Pre-release, I would have been even more amazed.
 
My box had Kyogre-EX, Groudon-EX and Groudon-EX FA.

No shinies, 3-4 or more Trainers (except for 2 Cheren), 2 Empoleon, 0 Blissey and 1 of each other holo.
 
Got an odd box today.

TWO FA Kyogre, 1 regular Kyogre, 1 Groudon....

I think the box was trolling us.
 
Could it be that if you have 4 EX´s in a box, one of them is double?
One of the boxes at our release today contained: Darkrai reg, Darkrai reg, Groudon reg, Kyogre FA
