I haven't had any 2* yet, and I've only seen one in wonder pick at the start of the month. Unfortunately, I didn't get it. On the other hand, I have pulled the shiny Giratina EX and the Immersive Pikachu EX.

It finally showed me one but

Similar scenario in the past hour when I tried to get a Professor's Research card and got the 2 hourglasses instead.

I did get my first card above a one-star in my pack opening this morning. It was a shiny Darkrai EX

I really wish they would let rewind glasses let you take another pick or something. They basically never have any use

That leaves Donphan EX and Octillery from Wisdom as the only diamond rarity cards I dont have (assuming you count the Deluxe set as reprints and not their own thing; I decided early on Id rather spend this month focusing on the original sets). So if anyone has those to spare

Also trailer for the new set will be up in a couple hours.

I did a ten pull yesterday and had pretty good luck. Got three two stars (Eevee, Mewtwo, and Lunala) and an illustration rare.

I still have a ton of hourglasses so might be doing more ten pulls before the next set comes out.

I think I've done 3 or 4 separate 10 pack pulls plus all of my regular openings since the day the set came out and this is how many 2 stars I've gotten, what the fuck lol

Alright but how many diamonds do you have of the set and how many packs have you opened of it, we're still nearly on the same amount!

Also up to 205 now after my pack this morning, no 2 star

Im not gonna post mine.

I might buy some gold for a cheeky extra ten pull before the new set comes out, since this one is temporary. Which is exactly what theyre hoping for, I know Im a sucker, but I really want that Pikachu emblem ;_;
Still the number one reason for the success of the Internet.
Yea I've been reasonably lucky with this set. Prior to yesterday I had a shiny Darkrai, an immersive Pikachu, and two Dialgas.

360 total pack points.
http://psnprofiles.com/Drayxs
Oh yea total pack points is a good way to gauge it, good call

445 pack points lol, which means I've actually opened less packs of this than I thought tbh but still

Oh good news for anyone who missed a promo card though, next event is a wonder pick featuring past promos.

8 fucking slurpuffs. That's all I have to say about this set.

This confused me at first, since I looked and saw the next one is an event for the reverse foils. That starts tonight, and the promo reruns are coming next week (there will be a re-run for the Drop Event promos too).
Change is weird.
I've done pretty well in this set.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/0c5095d2.jpg

And I got 2 of the Dialga.

I .... don't want to talk about my luck for this set >>

I would have expected one or two more 2 star or better cards from 85 packs, when it's approx 5.5% chance of getting one in any pack, but cant complain about bad luck due to the crown. Only seen one 2 star in WP from this set and missed it. 200/353 diamonds.

Congrats to azuarc - Guru champion - GotD
Well, theyre fixing the issue of reprints only counting for one set in the dex. But not until after summer 2026.

Thanks! Now all I need is a Donphan EX to be done with all the non-Deluxe Pack diamonds.

Well, the delay in sorting it is annoying, but at least it means I only have to worry about trading for the reverse foils.

Seems like they just add a huge buffer to announcements like this. Didn't they also say the trading change was gonna happen in the fall but it came out significantly earlier?
http://psnprofiles.com/Drayxs
I guess they have a roadmap in place already and need to prioritise that, but work on unexpected stuff like this in between when they get ahead, so they just put down the absolute latest they anticipate taking just in case.
Still the number one reason for the success of the Internet.
Which I'd expect from a small indie developer but this is a $1bn revenue game. That sort of thing should be able to be hot patched quickly with the sort of money we are talking about
This must be your first DeNA game!

It's wild that my only missing diamond cards from Wisdom are one-diamonds. You would think that after nearly 150 pack openings, I would have at least three of each.

Oh that reminds me I never got an Inkay from Secluded Springs. Does anyone have a spare they could toss me? I'm sure I could give just about anything back.

Just realized I am similarly somehow missing a secluded springs eelektrik, if someone has the time/spare
You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Pulled Pachirisu EX in both packs today. There are *checks* 75 EXes in this set so pretty small odds of that happening
I stopped opening up the EX packs on like Friday, but I still received some through the birthday or whatever event going. One of them contained a 2-star Charizard EX, so I am finally on the board!

I genuinely dont know what to do with my pack points for EX. Im not even close to having enough for a 2* card and I need like 70+ reverse holos, so I dunno if I can bothered to try and trade to complete the set either. I know the set is supposed to come back eventually, but Im guessing itll be a year from now and therell be a year 2 version to pull for at the same time.

I figure I can either just buy a few reverse holos for Pokemon and trainer cards I like or save them and hope that maybe theyll one day combine pack points into a single currency or something.
Still the number one reason for the success of the Internet.
I haven't spent any pack points at any point yet. I'm hoping they eventually let us combine them for some of the older stuff
I think I'll spend my pack points on Wednesday after opening my last pack of the day. Like you I'm not close to having enough for a 2* card and I don't want to risk losing them once the deluxe pack leaves. After the announcement of cards counting for all packs they're in after a future update, I don't need to waste points on any missing dupes, so I'll just get some foil cards, prioritizing the cheaper ones to get as many as possibile.

DeNA has said you'll still be able to spend the Deluxe pack points after the set ends.

Yayyy

And now 3 of my last 4 packs have been Sylveon EX
And I just got a 2-star Lusamine, so these birthday gift packs have great for me.

that one's one of my favourite 2* trainer cards artwise

tempted to do a final ten pack pull before the time ends for it, but I feel like I won't get anything good either >>
