My prerelease is not for another week, so i'm really jealous of all of you with a prerelease that is happening now/ already happened. So tell me!

What did you pull?
How many packs did you get?
What was the most popular card wanted?
 
I walked away with:

Pikachu 115/114
2-2-2 Reuniclus
"revenge" Bouffalant
x3 Juniper
x6 Pokemon Communication
x4 Plus Power
x4 water
x4 dark
x3 psychic
x3 grass
x2 fighting
electric
fire
metal

Few other random rares, lots of uncommon/commons.
 
I got Reshiram secret rare x3
Zekrom Secret rare x1
Pikachu holo 115/114
Zoroark holo and reverse and they were consecutive in packs XD

I bought like 5 packs afterwards so that explains the luck factor i felt bad that I was getting all the good ones :(
 
Well me and my brother both played in the prerelease, but I also played in a draft afterward.
We pull:
Reshiram (secret rare like one)
2 Zekrom (not secret rare, but one is reverse holo)
2 Emboar (awesome with the ability)
2 Serperior (one with the healing ability)
Reuniclus
lots of trainers
about 5 cool energies
revenge bouffallant
The most sought after cards were the secret rare-like legendaries and Emboar and Serperior that have the abilities.

I have been to two pre releases and have pulled

2 Secret rare Reshiram
1 Emboar with the ability
1 Reniculus
1 Klinklang
2 Krookodile
A bunch of trainers and supporters
 
So, we've established that the Pikachu is of TSD-esque rarity.

It remains to be seen how long it will remain at $25 before dropping to around $8.

TSD-esque rarity.
 
TSD stayed at a high price because it actually had use in many decks. Pikachu is going to drop a little slower than the Shinies did from Call of Legend.
 
I got the secret rare Zekrom, and my sister got the Pikachu.

Aside from that, I got Zoroark, 1 of each legendary, and Reinculus. I was hoping to grab a Cincinno, but no dice.
 
I ended up with some pretty sweet stuff. My brother and I each got 9 packs during the regular prerelease (so there is 18), and I got 6 in the draft afterwards. After trading and such, we ended up with:

2x Full Art Zekrom
2x Regular Zekrom
4x Cinccino line
1x Zoroark
4x Professor Juniper
3x Bouffalant (I LOVE this card, btw)
and plenty of other nice stuff.
 
Between my sister and I, we got about 3 boxes worth of packs. These are the ratios based on what I've seen:
1 Pikachu per 4ish boxes
2-3 total of the normal Resh/Zek per box
1-2 Zoroark a box
5ish total starters (Ability and non-Ability)
1-2 Cinccino a box
About 4 Junipers a box
About 5 Communications a box.

And for what it's worth, I never saw anyone pull 2 of the same Ability'd starter from the same box. There might be a 1 or less per box limit on those.

As for what I pulled for the prerelease itself... NOTHING. Absolutely horrid draw. The strongest cards in my deck were a Girdurr and 2 Alomomola. :/ Pretty much the only impressive thing I did was one-shot a Reshiram with Alomomola.

I think Tyler did once when he was opening a box. It's hard to say though with everyone helping from different tables.

For my PR run though I got a Reshiram and Zekrom both, not full art, a Mandibuzz and a Zoroark. Then in the after packs I pulled the Pikachu ^^v
 
In my box I didn't get ANY of the good Emboar, or the Pikachu, and I only got 1 Cinccino :frown:

On the good side, I did get

1 Full art Reshiram
1 Full art Zekrom
3 normal art Reshiram
2 normal art Zekrom
1 Zoroark
Lots of Joltik :smile:
