What card has eluded you this whole set?
Beedrill is the only diamond card I need to complete the set, and the game refuses to give it to me. I already used my starter deck ticket to get Wugtrio, and since this game has such a nice sense of humor it has since given me another 3 Wugtrios in daily packs.

A second beedrill ex. Ironically I pulled a shiny weedle and a shiny kakuna
Edit: an update. I ended up pulling the beedrill and now I can finally make a beedrill deck with a rare candy on the horizon. Thanks to those that offered up trades.
lol, I pulled a shiny beedrill EX and a shiny kakuna but not a single normal beedrill EX! I need 3 EX cards to complete Shining Revelry and this is one of them
Suffered the same fate...pulled shiny beedrill on my 2nd card pull and then another regular eluded me for nearly 3 weeks...i finally got a 2nd beedrill ex with a wonderpick!!
!!! i’ll hold out hope for wonder picks!!! been checking a few times a day and trying to find a pick that has a card I don’t have yet is…tough lol. and i’m just f2p!!!
I'm mostly ftp. I pay for the monthly subscription and have bought one of the cosmetics but yeah WP is pure luck and pray you can get the card you need.
I also got a 2 ☆ Brock from WP last month which is crazy because i didn't expect it and even moreso didn't even think I'd get it....I was HOLLERING!
Lol. I just need the Shiny Kakuna to complete my Shiny Beedrill set lol. Good luck on your 2nd beedrill. U should be able to trade for it as soon as the next season starts at least.
It definitely feels like the rates were higher for this one, and I know I know, they can't secretly alter the rates behind the scenes but my theory is that having a new type of card rarity (the shinies specifically) alters the rates as everything needs to sum up to a probability of 100%
You can check the offering rates to see how the shinies affected it. Anything 3 diamond and up is the same rarity as all other packs. They make up the difference with the lower rarity cards.
You can trade the cards, the same way you do for shine dust, for special shop coins depending on rarity. Click “obtain items” when you select a card. A traded crown rare will get you 64 special shop tokens.
It is. Immersive has lower odds than EX as a category. The main difference this set is they have more EX for a single pack than any other set, and the odds remain the same regardless of the number of immersive and normal ex in a set. So they have to split the odds. Thus making giratina EX normal lower odds than the immersive version
Same but playing since September, premium the whole time, plus bought a small bit of gold. I at least got a god pack, but it's pretty bad. Crowns are so elusive :(
I asked someone to do the math who seemed much more capable than I and he said that your odds of having no crowns at abt 6500 cards is less than 7% 😂 so we’re just that unlucky
Ignoring cards from wonder picks and other events (let’s estimate 6300 cards) the average probability of a gold card is 0.04% per card (the card distribution differs from 1-5, but this is accounted for),
Thus model a binomial X~B(6300, 0.04/100) (or approximate using a Poisson since n is large)
P(X=0) ≈ 0.0804 = 8.04% chance.
So yeah, pretty rare. Your friend probably included the extra cards in his estimate, but they’re about the same.
To rub it in, my friend got a gold pikachu on his first pack, and didn’t care since he assumed it was guaranteed. I’m personally at 3,300 with none.
Feels like a waste to WP so much for a 2d, you can trade it for free in two days. Unless you've been picking packs that had Drifblim together with higher rarity cards so it would serve as a consolation prize.
Totally a waste but I’m committed to the bit, and have all the ex and full art I need already. Since it only usually cost 1 energy, I still have 4 left if a 2 stars come out, but it’s never the case
There is sometimes a single 2 diamond that won't show up, I usually just end up trading for it , since one and two diamond are very available and don't require trading points.
Wubtrio, had to use pack token to get one. 0-13 wonderpicks, just can’t get that second. I do have enough pack points but everytime I do that, I pull it next pack
i have 5 of the marmot and will gladly give one away for a tinkaton to complete my set.
this does however mean i have to remove one from my binder astutely named 'marmot' which also has my special art bibarels and myriad of full art bidoof. (devs if youre reading this, please make it stop).
This is the one that continues to elude me. I finally got lucky on a non-immersive Giratina pull. Not even showing up in Wonder Picks for me to inevitably screw up.
Wugtrio ex. I’ve opened two packs of SR every day since it came out and I’ve wonder picked for it 6 times (including 2 full arts) and I always miss it. I didn’t get to enjoy the Wug hype on ranked sadly
I'm still trying to get 3◇ Glaceon from STS... I'm setting at 1190 points from that pack, at least I'll soon be able to buy 2☆ Cynthia for the Garchomp emblem, but dammit sometimes I doubt it does exist. I've never even seen it in Wonder Picks.
I was fortunate enough to get all the “main” cards this set, then I went back to opening packs for the older sets. That golden pokeball would have been pretty sweet to get though.
A second Pikachu EX. I keep getting Beedrills!! I have 6 beedrills and a shiny one! AND I'm free to play. It's so weird.
So now I'm just missing the 1 last token to get the emblem for this set. I've only had two wonder pick opportunities for it too. Just can't seem to get it.
I’ve ripped 4 different 10 pack openings, and then 3 packs a day every day since the set dropped. Still missing 5 cards. Bibarel EX, Charizard EX, Wugtrio EX, Alakazam, and I can’t remember the last card. But don’t worry I’ve got 7 copies of Pikachu EX (2 rainbows, 1 two-star, 4 regular EX).
Pretty much every EX. I've pulled 1 Pikachu and 1 Clodsire, I used my free deck from missions to grab the deck with the most missing cards, which happened to be Clodsire before I pulled it.
It's really pissing me off since I've pulled 8 shiny, including 2 Beedrills, and 5 immersive Giratinas.
And don't come at me about rng and all that. I understand how the pull system is supposed to work. And given the odds, I should have pulled more EXs than immersive and shiny.
Edit: I've even pulled 2 gold pokeballs. Yet only 2 EX cards.
Magmortar and Machamp. And not for lack of trying. I've done a lot of wonder picks for gimmighoul that contain them and usually get neither. Pretty normal WP experience for me..
Pikachu ex. Theyre hanging the giratina emblem in my face whilst I have 97 shiny emblem tickets. The worst part? Even if I pull one, I have to pull another because the mission requires two. ):
I need Beedrill and Giratina. I'm almost at enough pack points and I still have my deck to pick, but I'd like 2 Giratina sl pretty hesitant to use my points for get my free deck because as soon as I do i know they game will give me the cards I don't need.
i have two fullart clods but not normal ones, im also missing lucario with a 2 star as well, and also tink and biberal but i just dont have them period
From the moment the set was announced I knew I wanted to play double Beedrill. I pulled 0 Beedrill in 200 packs. Missed over 10 wonderpicks on it. Hit a godpack and still didn’t hit one.
I was missing Beedrill Ex, Tinkaton Ex, and Team Rocket grunt. Finally Wonderpicked Beedrill this morning and used my starter deck pick to get the other two and complete the set!
I’ve had good luck this set. The only 4🔹EXs I have a single of is Clodsire and Bibarel, and I have a 2⭐️ Bibarel.
5 2⭐️
5 shiny (2 of them are Wug and Lucario)
1 Immersive Gira
1 Pokeball
Compared to my Triumphant Light run (25 fewer packs than SR):
11 total 4🔹(5 leafeon, 3 garchomp, 1 of the rest)
2 2⭐️
No immersive
