Prerelease I'm going to is tomorrow...curious as to what the box ratios seem to be...as in how many Prime and how many "Legend" per box.
 
The box I checked through had all 6 Primes, all 4 Legend pieces, and a RH red Gyarados.
 
Its looking like 6-9 Prime, 3-4 LEGEND, and 1 Alph Lithograph/Shiny Gyarados per box. That's what I've heard from my prerelease and other peoples'.
 
Do Prime and Legend both replace the rare card? If so...and holo cards (rare holo, prime, and legend) are a combined 1:3 packs...that would be like 2 holo rare per box. So...do Prime or Legend replace the RH spot? Or are holo cards 1:2 packs now and non holo rare cards 1:2 packs?
 
It seemed like all 6 primes and 3-4 pieces of the Legends along with the Red Gyarados. The Alph Litho appears to be 1 in 3 boxes maybe.

^That is the best news I've heard about this set all day. :)

So the LEGENDS do replace Lv.X's as far as rarity is concerned.

I pulled one lithograph today, didn't realize that it probably is a secret rare and more uncommon than all the others.

How about 2 of these ultra rare type cards in a pack. I actually saw more primes than some cards like Jumpluff and Raichu's. Someone opened a pack with 2 Red Gyrados. Someone else open a pack with 1 part of a legend and one prime pokemon. Have others seen this sort of thing?
 
Based on all the info I have gathered so far this is the ratio -

5-6 Prime Pokemon per Box
3 Legend Pokemon per Box
Alph Lithograph is atleast 1 in 3 boxes if not RARER.
Red Gyarados I am unsure, but from everyone I have asked it seems to be 1 per box with it alternating from RH to Holo.
It seems that TPCi messed up again in NOT printing the Energy in RH, but I have only had one person confirm that they didn't pull any.

I hope that helps. I expect that the value of the set is going to be interesting. I am not sure if what to think as far as what is in each box.

Hope that helps,
Drew
