    Box 4: Palkia RR
    Lusamine FA
    Leafeon Gx (Only normal art Leafeon Gx in the case)
    Dialga Gx
    DW Necrozma Gx

    Box 5: Palkia Full art
    Pokemon Fan Club Full art
    Palkia Gx
    DM Necrozma Gx
    Glaceon Gx

    Box 6: Pheromosa RR
    Lana Full art
    Palkia Gx
    Silvally Gx

    The last box was pretty bad with a second duplicate full art trainer and only 4 ultra rares.

    Not exactly sure when they started putting duplicate full art trainers in sealed cases, especially with 9 in the set.

    I pulled all but 7 reverses in the case. I only pulled one reverse Cynthia in the case. Also Leafeon, Dialga and Silvally were in short supply to Palkia, Glaceon and the Necrozma's. Only got one Leafeon regular art in the case. Funny enough i did get 2 of the missing reverses the 2 etbs I opened from the set. The missing reverses were Roselia, Wash Rotom, Croagunk, Weavile, Shieldon, Glameow and Unit Energy Lightning/Psychic/Metal.

    I also opened some products and got a Drampa full art and a Sylveon full art.

    Is there some formula that dictates they can't put duplicates of full arts in the same box?

    I've opened quite a few boosters since my last post and did some trading. Unfortunately I don't remember what I've posted lol. Of note, I got a Glaceon GX from an Ultra Prism pack. I also ordered the Battle Ruler Theme Deck for myself anf Sky Guardian and Imperial Command for my GF.

    My customized decks are way better than any theme deck, but we still have fun battling straight out-of the box from time to time.

    I've got a triple blister pack of Guardians Rising with a Holographic Turtonator Promo that I have yet to open as well.

    Also, it sounds like my GF and I are going to try to go to a Forbidden Light pre-release Event.

    Agreed! I just wish I knew how to track some casual players down in my local area.

    Going to card shop tourneys is just a little too intimidating for me; I don't have enough time and energy to be as good as the hardcore players.

    May just have to see if a shop is willing to host an unofficial casual league or talk with some of the people who run leagues about casual play?

    Pulled no secret rares at my PR.

    Still pulled a Full Art Ultra Necrozma GX and Lysandre Prism Star, though. Also pulled a Primarina GX from other packs I bought on Saturday at other stores.

    Pack 2: Shaymin, Mars
    Pack 3: reverse holo Lillie, Full Art Pokemon Fan Club
    Pack 4: reverse holo Luxray, Alolan Exeggutor, Fire Memory, Order Pad

    • Opened a Forbidden Light ETB and a Forbidden Light box yesterday.

    Pulled Beast Energy Prism Star, Gold Metal Frying Pan, Lysandre Prism Star, and Diantha from the ETB for sure. Also a couple of Unit Energy.

    I pulled Lysandre Prism Star, Palkia GX, Full Art Yveltal GX, reverse holo Infernape, Garchomp, Volcanion Prism Star, Full Art Ultra Recon Squad, Zygarde GX, Beast Energy Prism Starand Diantha from the box for sure.

    I alos pulled a Rainbow Rare Naganadel GX, but I can't remember whether that was the box or the ETB (inclined to think it was the box).

    Also picked up a Full Art Ultra Prism Lillie from the shop while I was there.

    And album of the haul: https://imgur.com/a/93zJUpz

    I opened the Exeggcute blister pack and got a Zygarde full art, it was the first pack I opened of the set.

    I also opened an ETB from the set, it was pretty much trash. Just 2 holos. I did get Exeggcute, Binacle and Litleo. I collect the clay Pokemon cards. But a lot of the art in this set is lacking and the pack arts are atrocious.

    I opened the Dawn Wings and Dusk Mane figure collections.

    Really wish they had put some Sun and Moon packs in instead of Breakthrough and Ancient Origins.

    I think one box had 5 non holo rares and the other had a Naganadel full art.
