The full art prints did look kind of dark in my box.

Anyway grabbed a Tapu Bulu tin and opened it tonight.

Guardians Rising Pack 1: reverse holo Energy Lotto, Whiscash, Max Potion
Guardians Rising Pack 2: reverse holo Talonflame, Chandelure, Multi Switch, Aqua Patch
Evolutions Pack: reverse holo Hitmonchan, Beedrill, Energy Retrieval, Pidgeot Spirit Link
Steam Siege Pack: Magearna EX, Steelix Spirit Link

Not a great EX, but still happy to have pulled an EX in just 4 packs.

Magearna is pretty viable in a format with Lapras GX and Toxipex GX

I've noticed faded full art exs in XY packs before. Like they were running low on ink. Another english pokemon card print failure.

And back with another Guardians Rising pack. This one's from GameStop:

Swellow, Aether Conservation Area, Hala.

Going to be trying to remember to open and share the contents of at least one pack per day between here and the TCGO.

Grabbed a second Guardians Rising ETB at Target today.

Pack 1: reverse holo Liligant, Rayquaza, Bewear, Brooklet Hill
Pack 2: Tapu Koko GX, Rescue Stretcher, Bewear
Pack 3: reverse holo Roadblock Sudowoodo, Comfey, Rescue Stretcher
Pack 4: Solgaleo
Pack 5: Feather Dance Oricorio, Max Potion
Pack 6: reverse holo Garbodor, Sharpedo, Energy Recycler
Pack 7: Sharpedo, Energy Lotto
Pack 8: Blissey, Max Potion, Energy Recycler

Could've been as good as the other one, but still not bad overall.

Who else is finding the Pokemon SM2 - Guardians Rising to have a whole lot of tasty pulls available?
I was super pleased with what I got out of my Booster Box, and also happy they sorted the whole "mapping" ordeal.

Have a look at the pulls!:

Opened a 3-pack BreakPoint blister with the XY184 Giratina promo in it.

Breakpoint Pack: reverse holo Ferrothorn, Full Art Skyla

Fates Collide Pack: Barbaracle, Lass's Special

BreakThrough Pack: Zoroark BREAK, Full Art Glalie EX, Assault Vest


I've had some pretty solid packs I've bought lately.

Please note that our YouTube tag does not use the whole video URL and only uses the stuff after the "v=" in the URL and before any "&" symbol (so, basically, it's juts looking for the video ID and nothing else). I've fixed this in your post for now.

I wouldn't call this a "pull" but yesterday I won an auction for 55 base/fossil/jungle/team rocket set cards all in great condition for $11
it came with a dark charizard which I really wanted

Redeemed a code for a Guardians Rising pack from an email I got from TPCI about Magikarp Jump tonight. Contents:

Rake It In Bewear, reverse holo Drampa, Swellow. Oh, and Alolan Vulpix.

Nice pack luck. A tip I've got is to make sure you do what you can to not fade out from the mic, because there are points at the end of the video where you basically just cut out.

Still counts as a pull because it's something you just got!

Today's pack was an XY Evolutions blister pack with the XY163 Weezing promo.

Pack contents: Mewtwo, Misty's Determination, Surfing Pikachu.

Two rares in one pack was a bit unexpected, especially since the reverse holo was Charmander and that's normally what I'm used to seeing missing when I've got two rares in one pack. Happy to have a secret rare though.
