I wish gold cards had more value for being more rare. I dont really like the golds and often pull them. Would love to trade them for SIR or IR of a card I actually wanted.
Like others are saying: your math is wrong. 1/13 means that there are boxes with only two IRs. Just go to Danny Phantumps overview of the set. He had multiple boxes with only two IRs. So did many others.
Occasional box with 2 illustration rares, right? Not 4. And Danny Phantom explained he got a couple of boxes with 2 IR's, so I'd think 1 in every 13 packs is pretty accurate, right?
Also, I think the 1 specific IR in every 167 packs is their actual experience and if they calculate that for a random IR, it roughly results in 1 for every 13 packs. Makes sense?😅
I believe the pull rate for IR is correct. I opened 2 booster boxes of the SV area with only 2 IRs in there (Paldea Evolved & Temporal Forces). So it shows that it's most likely higher than 1 IR per 12 packs.
The 1 in 167 is because they round off the 1 in 13 to give a whole number (it was actually a little better). As for the 3 IR's per box that is definitely not guaranteed. There are many people who have opened boxes and only received 2 IR's in the box. While you are more likely to get 3 in a box, there are definitely boxes out there that do not get 3.
I opened one booster box of Stellar Crown. 7 normal exes, one full art ex, 3 illustration rare (Bulbasaur!), 1 ace spec, 1 full art trainer and 1 gold Terapagos ex. 14 pulls total
First BB opened of the new set…. First hit was a squirtle IR, next hit fallowing was the bulbasaur IR…. Next hit Lacey SIR… one BB in and I’m done with the set (for the time being)
@@lindabroer8995 I want to get a playset of full art Irida once she rotates because I'd assume it'd be cheaper but if the price won't go down much or even increase I might as well have gotten it earlier
In my prerelease, of the 8 packs I opened, I got 2 Ace Specs, and just that. Both the Deluxe bomb… And then to make me feel better I opened a Twilight Masquerade ETB and pulled only a normal hearthstone ogrepon. Not even a buddy buddy… So I feel ya.
I opened 8 booster boxes of stellar crown English yesterday, the very first one had 2 illustrations rares, every other one had 3. just checked the photos and videos I made to be sure.
Had 1 ETB and 1 Booster Box from Pokemon Center, and I never pulled a SIR from nither. At best, I got the full art stellar Lapras and one ace spec. Must've had bad boxes, because they love to give me alot of bad Battle Academy EXes. 😢
I had better luck in Half BB. 1 SIR, cheapest ACE (bomb) and 1 FA, few ex.. I'll say you're right Wossy. But be smart, go for half BB. All the best guys
Does a gold card take the place of a SIR in a box? One of my boxes didn't have an SIR but did have a gold, but I've never opened a box that had both so I can't really know.
Rates are worse with this set than twilight and temporal. That could be because the set is smaller. The rate on IRs is slightly less than 1/12 so 1/13 is pretty accurate. Of all the box openings I've seen it's been 2 or 3 IRs, never 4. The rates on SIR and HR are slightly below what it was with the prior two sets. The ace specs are much closer to what tcg put out at 1/20 than previous sets where is was about 1/18. My hope is that larger sets will get slightly better rates if they are going nerf them for smaller sets.
Etb was a total bummer still waiting til next week to buy a booster box I’ve been told it’s very hit and miss. Like either stacked or absolutely bare minimum low value pull cards only Japanese is so much better stellar crown just oozed perfect pull rates as usual it does English is 2-3 times the cost of Japanese and you get so much wasted bulkbyour stuck with
1/13 means that there are more booster boxes with 2 IRs than 4 IRs. 1/13 is less tan 3 per box.
Thats what i wanted to wrire;)
you mean there would be the occasional booster box with only 2 illustration rares right?
yeah, I have seen a few booster boxes with two
@@collinjones3640 Same, I believe it is closer to 1/13 than 1/12 for some boxes to only have two.
I bought two boxes and my first only had two illustration rares. First time that's ever happened to me.
Math is not his jam… 😂
I feel like when this happens, there’s a higher rarity added in lieu of the IR.
I wish gold cards had more value for being more rare. I dont really like the golds and often pull them. Would love to trade them for SIR or IR of a card I actually wanted.
Same I’m 50/50 on the golds. They look too much like full art sometimes maybe if they did more artistically.
Agreed, it makes the highest rarity tier a disappointment to get

Your math is backwards; some boxes have 2 instead of 3, that is what 1/13 means. I have seen boxes with 2, so that is 100% confirmed.

Gold may be rarer but I definitely would have preferred to get an sir over gold terapagos
Now i realized how lucky i am, i pulled 1 terrapagos ex alt art and 1 lacey alt art only in 2 presentations and 4 packs
Question: do full art trainers go lower in price when they rotate? For example Irida
Depends on how popular the trainer is. Most playable trainer cards will drop, but the ones that are really popular as a trainer will remain high.
@@lindabroer8995 I want to get a playset of full art Irida once she rotates because I'd assume it'd be cheaper but if the price won't go down much or even increase I might as well have gotten it earlier
@@keldeo05 I’m not sure how popular Irida is so I can’t help you with that decision.
@@lindabroer8995 It's ok, thanks though
That was my first pull from stellar crown at the prerelease. I love orthworm
My first booster box only had 2 illustration rares. I think the 1/13 is probably a better number
Bought 1 Etb and pulled 2 full arts, Terapagos ex sir, the tree a spec, and 2 ex cards. It was amazing.
Ive bought 2 booster bundles and 1 etb and from both i had 3 ace specs cards 2 SIR cards and 3 ex cards
I got 5 sleeved booster and pulled the squirtle my chase !!!!
I got 2 squirtle and 2 terapagos sir from 2 booster boxes got stupid lucky
In my prerelease, of the 8 packs I opened, I got 2 Ace Specs, and just that. Both the Deluxe bomb…
And then to make me feel better I opened a Twilight Masquerade ETB and pulled only a normal hearthstone ogrepon. Not even a buddy buddy… So I feel ya.
Sounds all pretty accurate to me
I opened 9 packs and got a Squirtle, so happy
GOT My lacey on the fisrts pack of my booster bundle , on friday the 13th!!
I opened 8 booster boxes of stellar crown English yesterday, the very first one had 2 illustrations rares, every other one had 3. just checked the photos and videos I made to be sure.
My ETB only had one of the unplayable ex's - very disappointing
If the above is true then i must be insanely lucky because i've ended up with 7 hits in only 13 packs! (only two of which are normal ex's)
My League pulled 2 Gold Area 0’s from the same booster box 😅
Had 1 ETB and 1 Booster Box from Pokemon Center, and I never pulled a SIR from nither. At best, I got the full art stellar Lapras and one ace spec. Must've had bad boxes, because they love to give me alot of bad Battle Academy EXes. 😢

In 10 packs I got 1 Blastoise ex, 1 full art joltik and 1 full art crabominable.
First Pack Magic for Lacey🤙🏼
(Triple-Pack)
Does a gold card take the place of a SIR in a box? One of my boxes didn't have an SIR but did have a gold, but I've never opened a box that had both so I can't really know.
Twice from this set I pulled gold & sir in a box
And i got 3 SIR and 2SRs in total out of 8 booster boxes, in case you were wondering
I pulled the lacey on my 5th booster box! 😍😍😍
I've had as few as 2 IR in a box, so ill trust TCG with there larger sample size than mine.
for some reason the pull rates here in the Philippines are crazy. pretty much everybody and their mother is getting the terapagos sir left and right
Yeah, I saw that. It was INSANE
@@naturalharmoniagropius4486 also know somebody who opened a god box with 5 SIR's and 2 golds. it was pretty crazy
I got a HR and a SIR in one box of stellar crown. Only 3 IRs.
I think booster box is the way to go, got good pulls, watch ▶️

Ross about to start a orthworm binder.
Pull rates are quite good tbh
had an ETB with only a meditite IR and venusaur ex as the hits 😔
I’ve only purchased 4 Stellar Crown packs but was able to get a Briar SIR.
I got lucky with 4 IR in a booster box
Etb was a total bummer still waiting til next week to buy a booster box I’ve been told it’s very hit and miss. Like either stacked or absolutely bare minimum low value pull cards only Japanese is so much better stellar crown just oozed perfect pull rates as usual it does English is 2-3 times the cost of Japanese and you get so much wasted bulkbyour stuck with
So r these booster box pull rates ???or what cuz they definitely have better pull rates then all other products I fell
Booster boxes are more consistent than other products, not proven to be better Pull rates overall.
i love your content but why question the data they produce?
Their pull rates looks accurate
I got a squirtle on my 17th pack let’s gooooo!
Idk why you're arguing against the IR data. Some boxes have 2, some have 3 from the openings I've seen.
Got not a single thing in my etb.. wel one EX that's it....
Etbs suck
Oh wow…. That’s… insane
Am I the only one paying 161 for a booster box?? I don’t trust anywhere else other than Pokemon center any help would be appreciated!
My two box came with two IR not three unfortunately
I got 2 ar's but 1 SIR and 1 HR
opened 100 packs got 0 SIR but 2 gold
that was kinda odd :(
I pulled 4 IR in my 1 box i opened
Dang I’m over here with 4 IRs in 12 packs
got it already
I got it with a half booster box im happy but i would want terapagos sir or galvantula sir more
I only got one ace specs
Meanwhile my 12 yo brother pulled one from his prerelease packs
i pulled 170
I'll never finish this set lol
8 thousand packs is only good data for a small country, not the whole world smh
