my box should be here either tomorrow Or Monday I’ll let you guys know how I get on
My boxes didn’t have issues.
The Charizard is a little off center at the back… but aside from that the rest are fine.
Opened up 8 boxes
2 x Toxicroak FA
1 x Magezone FA
1 x Pokemon Fan Club FA
1 x Charizard Y UR
6 x Charizard Ex
7 x Toxicroak Ex
2 x Kanga Ex ex
4 x Mega Charizard Ex
2 x Mega kanga
no Magezone ex ? Hahahaha
How do you have a Charizard Y FA?
I’ll gladly trade you my Magneone EX for a Toxicroak FA 
Oops meant UR, thanks for noticing

My box came yesterday.
1 magnezone EX
1 FA toxicroak EX
1 mega kangaskahn EX
No charizards nor meowstic, so I ordered 2 more boxes!
Seller sent me a bonux pack and I pulled another magnezone EX!
I got a total of 10 boxes in two batches:
Box 1 - Magnezone EX FA
Box 2 - Toxicroak EX FA
Box 3 - Pokemon Fan Club FA
Box 4 - Pokemon Center Nurse FA
Box 5 - Toxicroak EX FA
Box 6 - Charizard EX FA
Box 7 - Kangaskhan EX FA
Box 8 - M Kangaskhan EX UR
Box 9 - M Charizard EX UR (Mega Charizard X)
Box 10 - Dud 
Overall I think it’s around 1 FA per box which is a pretty awesome pull rate and I only got one duplicate!
(Maybe it’s beginner’s luck? I just started less than two months ago XD)

Haha, thanks! I realized how lucky I was after watching more opening videos on youtube! Now I just need a Lysandre FA and Mega Charizard Y EX UR to complete the set! SO PUMPED! 
Just got my 1 booster box today… Pulled a UR charizard x in my 2nd pack! I just bought a box for the promo goodra 
How did you get a promo goodra? None of my boxes had such inside or came with it?
Also I got my 2nd and 3rd boxes in -
in 1 box - magnezone ex, mega kangaskahn ex, and kangaskahn ex
in other box - kangaskahn ex, charizard ex, and mega charizard ex (the dragon type one!)
Sadly no FAs or UR megas, but at least I got some charizards and no dud boxes (those with just 2 ex)
My friend bought them at the Pokemon Center.
Just curious how much are the top two trainers worth? Are they really worth $30 each as ebay shows? I know literally nothing about new pokemon cards, I almost entirely collect old, but I really like these two especially the pokemon center lady. Besides buying them off ebay what kind of booster pack would you need to pull one of these and how hard is it to pull one?
Thanks
While not direct at me I think I can help. Right now, the two Trainers really are worth $30 apiece. I sold several copies quite easily at those prices. SR cards are 1 per 2 boxes and there are 7 SR cards in Wild Blaze. You can expect to open 7 boxes to obtain one of the two Trainers that you mentioned. Since boxes usually cost minimum $30 shipped to your door, it is cheaper to buy the cards individually (unless you have pretty great luck).

Ok gotcha thanks so much for clearing that up for me! How many packs are in a box? Where do you guys buy these japanese booster boxes usually?
I probably won’t get into newer cards at the moment until some of my old card goals are finished, but its interesting to know. And I really would like that pokemon center lady card. Is that what its called?
Ok so I ended up buying the pokemon center lady for 1700 yen plus middleman fees and shipping via yahoo japan. Haha couldn’t resist. I really like the artwork of that card and it reminds me of nurse joy and the good old days of watching pokemon indigo league. Anyway I wanted to ask about all this confusing rarity stuff. 99% of the cards I collect are the old school cards or “old back” Pokemon cards. Occasionally I’ll get a newer card I just can’t resist like the Pokemon Center Lady Wild Blaze card. So back in the old days of course, your cards are just common, uncommon, rare, or no rarity promos. With these new sets what is the tier of rarity?
I know UR stands for “Ultra Rare”, SR stands for “Super Rare” but which one is rarer than the other. And what about some of the other stuff, like Ex, RR, Lv X, etc?
Sorry I know this is probably a dumb question, but as an old school collector I’m lost and my google searches have been in vain to explain.
Also just wondering I noticed the english version of these will be coming out soon. Are they typically not as valuable as the japanese ones or is that just user preference?
i’m old school too I believe the UR are relatively new and are the most rare. At least for wild blaze, the pull rate for ur’s is lower than sr’s. Hope someone can add some nice clarity to this. Personally, i was a bit turned off by more recent use of letters instead of good old fashioned stars, diamonds and circles
Well, the English version is definitely inferior quality. It holds its own value on the western market, however, since you can only use your own language for competitive play. I find that Japanese cards maintain value better over the years, but there are a few exceptions.
As for SR and UR, it is exactly as @hapycakeoven said. It was said that UR were 1 per 6 boxes before XY but many people seem to think they are more rare now. I personally pulled 2 UR in 19 boxes but I think I was unlucky. They are usually a whole lot cheaper on Y!J. 
Ok cool thanks for the info! I think besides the english cards I collected as a child (i.e. base set, fossil, jungle, team rocket, etc.) I prefer the style of the Japanese cards including the fact they are written in Japanese
Ok wow sounds like UR are very very hard to get. Thanks for making that clarification! What does RR mean?
Also what does it mean for a card to be an EX, Lv X, or a gold star?
EX cards are considered RR now (which I suppose is more rare than a normal Holo Rare). Since the beginning of ADV, EX cards were considered on par with Holo Rares. At any rate, boxes these days contain 2-4 EX cards depending on the other contents. Meaning one of those could be replaced by an SR or UR. I’ve never seen a box with 4 RR (out of 50+ some samples).
I don’t have a clue with Lv. X cards since I haven’t jumped into that era yet. Boxes are still very easy to find and so they aren’t a huge priority for me just now. Gold Stars I believe were 1 per 2 boxes but the boxes were twice as expensive back then (packs were 300 JPY each). Someone else feel free to chime in on Gold Star rates. Oh and the old packs also guaranteed a Holo and normal Rare in each pack.
