(+) Yeah! (+)

Alright boys, season ends in a few days and time to climb to at least UB. I've picked my weapon of choice, NinjaTinaLele. Here goes nothing.

This might not seem like the most spectacular pull, but finally getting Rotom finished off a few TL deck missions for me.

Just got my 3rd shiny Exeggutor EX. Theres officially something wrong with this games RNG.

I would freakin love to give those, Eggy gets a lot of play in my decks. More than my Shiny Machamp EX

Been getting pretty lucky with my wonderpicks lately. Gotten my last 3 in a row. One of them being a rare candy. I have two of them now, both from wonderpicks...none from regular packs.

Just a reminder that the Golden Week promo code ends soon.

Im also looking for StokeZard, Bibarel and Tinkaton to finish out Shining Revelry, but Clodsires my priority.

Im also missing a ton of 3-Diamond cards from Celestial Guardians so once trading is available for that set in a few days, Ill make a post for that.

Thanks! Solgaleo isnt tradable yet, but could I trade you Garchomp for Clod, then do Leo for Tinkaton in a few days from now?

Oh right I forgot. Yeah that works

Yes! Finally! Rare Candy!

Before this set I hadn't gotten any crowns. Now I've gotten 2 crown Solgaleos... I don't even like Solgaleo.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/8/8ada04eb.jpg

Thanks, I hate it. Now I have both of the two star variants and still don't have the regular, four diamond one. I also struck out on a four cost wonder pick:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/fef180eb.jpg

Don't see those too often, myself, not sure if I've ever successfully picked one yet, either.

Not bad... These packs have been good to me... Weird I still can't pull just a Bounsweet though

So how's the progress going? 112 packs in and I'm still missing 21 cards. This has been one of the more poorer sets in terms of luck.

I'm also exactly 112 packs in, funnily enough, but I'm just missing 11 cards (not counting one stars or above, of course). Weirdly enough, the breakdown of those 11 is 4 two diamond, 5 three diamond, and only 2 four diamond cards. I guess that at least means I won't have to spend a lot of points to trade for what I need when the time comes.

Is there a way to see how many of a booster pack you've opened?

I just calculate it based on how many pack points I have, though I assume that wouldn't work quite as well if you'd already used some and didn't keep track of what you used them on/how much you spent. Not sure if there's a better way, myself.

Same boat, almost exact. There's gonna be a whole lot of trading this weekend, so much so that this topic might become hot lol

Trading seems like such a pain to set up

I forget what it's called but there is a third party app now that might make it easier. An app that shouldn't be needed if the system wasn't garbage, but hopefully later this year they correct it.

161 packs still missing cards

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/dc97a8ad.png
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/d0afb925.jpg

114 packs, missing 12 cards.

Missing 11 myself. What the hell is up with this sets rates?

So, I just spent 500 pack points on a Crabominable EX so I could finally have two for battling. Guess what was in my very next Solgaleo pack?

I don't spend ponts until the new pack comes out I also tend to use them on the cards instead. It's easier to trade and find EX cards than the alternative/full art cards

144/155, missing a number of 1 and 2 diamond cards. Weird luck this set.

145/155

Missing-
Bounsweet
Crabominable Ex (Have the 2-Star though)
Wishiwashi Ex
Alolan Raichu Ex
Tapu Koko (Have 2 1-Star though)
Lunala Ex (Have 2 2-Star though)
Conkeldurr
Passimian Ex
Kommo-o
Bewear (Have his 1-Star though)

I went through and caught up clearing all the challenges, let me know if you need help with one. But protip, 18T Oricorio solos most of the expert challenges and clears the 3D as well.

It's messed up. I went through and bought the few 1 and 2 diamond cards I was missing, and I'll have enough for a 3D tomorrow, but will still be missing 7 3D cards. It's fucked, having opened as many packs as I did with premium, that I should be missing that many commoners yet have a trove of shiny and 1 star.

I'm hope we get a dark theme for the game, even lowering the brightness doesn't help as much when playing in the dark.

Well cool, incentive to keep playing UB, which I guess the Japanese call hyper ball.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/7/7c340427.jpg

That might actually get me to try for Masterball now instead of landing at UB1.

Yeah, the lack of win streak bonuses in UB make climbing in it a chore even if youre winning frequently. Great that theyre fixing it.

On the final pack I ever pull from this set, finally something decent!

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/f/f3c235b7.jpg

Remember not to open your evening packs!

I open them all and start fresh tomorrow I'm trying to get as many cards for this set before the new one drops.

Well, I have a better chance of pulling a dupe shiny or 1* than one of the elusive 3D cards I need, so I'll just trade with folks and hold the pack. Might as well get my list going.

Need, all 3D:
Bewear
Magearna
Necrozma
Comfey
Tsareena
Golispod
Tapu Bulu

Of this set I have extra:
Turtonator x2
Lycanroc x3
Klefki x1
Kommo-o x1

I was like "What the hell is 3D" until I figured it out.

I have these for trade if you want to tomorrow (or whenever). Would love an extra Leaf Cap if you have one. Or Gurdurr, Kiawe, Mallow, or fire Oricorio in that order as backup offers. Otherwise I'll just whatever for the 1 or 2 diamond trade.
