Legendary Treasures Pull Rates

Not liking those repeat pulls. I'm a bit worried for my 2 boxes but it deems like the gold FAs are common. I've heard a one in 2 boxes pull rate and if PokemonTrader got both from just 80 packs it puts me in high hopes. I just hope that I don't get the same holos/EX cards from both the boxes. Still no case openings so we don't know whether these similar boxes are from the same case or not.

I liked the repeats mostly. I got a Playset of every Radiant FA. I got two Chandelures, two Victini, etc so I'm halfway there to a Playset. I have 3 Darkrai so the one completes my Playaset.

Opened a box, and pulled:
Holos:
Garchomp
Tornadus
Rayquaza
Cobalion
Zoroark
Landorus
Lucario
Gothitelle
Garbodor
Sigilyph
Mewtwo
Thundurus
Zekrom
Kyurem
Samurott
Articuno
Charizard
Genesect

And for the Ultra Rares:
White Kyurem EX
Lugia EX
Mewtwo EX
Kyurem EX
Keldeo EX

Plus the RC Ultra Rares:
Meloetta EX
Mew EX x2
Shaymin EX x2
Emolga EX x2
Meloetta EX (FA)
Reshiram x2

Was hoping for a Chandelure EX, but still decent for the box. Did average for the Ultra Rares in the set, I think.
 
Bought 6 packs recently (4 regular & 2 that came with the Kalos starters).

Got another Meloetta EX (non full art), Emolga, and Keldeo EX.
 
Bought 33 packs from 3 different stores and got this:

Main set Ultra rares(4):
Chandelure-EX
Black Kyurem EX
Zekrom EX
Excadrill-EX

Main set holos (23):
Serperior
Virizion
Charizard
Moltres x2
Victini
Emboar
Reshiram x2
Articuno
Zapdos
Sigilyph
Garbodor
Meloetta
Landorus x2
Zoroark
Cobalion
Rayquaza
Hydregion
Cinccino (reverse)
Tornadus (reverse)
Kyurem (reverse)


Radiant collection(7):
Meloetta EX
Shaymin EX FA
Reshiram FA x2
Emolga FA x2
Meloetta EX FA


25 cards left to complete the set (not counting reverse). Next set I'm getting a box.
 
Yeah LTR has had incredible pull rates. Personally I had (out of a box):

LTR: Kyurem EX, Mewtwo EX, Lugia EX, White Kyurem EX, Darkrai EX

Radiant Collection: 4 Meloetta (3 FA), 2 Emolga, 2 Mew, 2 Shaymin, 2 Reshiram

And then I went and bought one more pack and got a Keldeo EX and a 3rd Emolga. Just insane.
 
I don't get why people call the pull rates incredible. It's solely the Radiant Collection cards that make the better-than-holo pull rates above average. (It's little different to previous non-standard pulls like Rising Rivals Rotoms, Unseen Forces Unowns, etc. aside from being guaranteed to pull them rather than having a 1/3 chance.) Holos are much more common, though, so I guess there is that. But yeah, Radiant Collection's "Ultra Rares" aren't any rarer than the other cards in their slot like Pikachu and Purrloin.

it's not just the RC cards. people seem to, on average, be pulling 5-6 LTR EXs out of a box. That is much better than the 2-3 that many used to get out of a box. The Rc cards help a lot, but the pull rates for this set are much better than they have been, even if you completely exclude the RC cards
 
Keep in mind there are effectively no full arts or ace specs in the main set. (The gold Reshiram/Zekrom are more akin to Shinies in pull rate.) So factoring in the Ace Specs/Full Arts you would be getting being essentially replaced by more Pokemon-EX, the pull rates are pretty expected.
