I was pleasantly happy with Evolving Skies sealed product.
My Chilling Reign pulls were marred with disgusting centering.
Evolving skies conversely were consistently nicely centerered, with no print snags.
Looking at the singles market, there don’t seem to be too many bad condition pulls.
But sorry to hear your misfortune @galalyth,
The quality seemed very good imo, from someone who doesn’t tend to collect in booster packs I was very happy with what I received quality wise. 9/10 from me 
Sorry you didn’t find the same, i wish you all the best of luck on your journeys with this great new addition to the tcg.
Treated myself to a 3-pack Umbreon blister and a single-pack Eevee blister, pulled this!
My luck is finally turning with English!
I had pretty great luck my first box / packs I got from target. From 5 target blisters & 1 Pokemon center booster box. Got a rainbow SR, Umbreon Alt Art (top right corner is damaged out the pack), then a mint Glaceon Alt art and lastly the Alt art Rayquaza VMAX. Plus some other random V’s
Opened one box and lucked out on quality. A lot of mild OC but none of the comical miscuts or consistent edge wear I was seeing before on the pre-release packs.
What do we think the odds of the alt art vmax espeon / vaporeon / flareon / jolteon making it into English?
@pentagon, I don’t see why it wouldn’t. No clue on which set it will be, English is wildly all over the place
So far, none of the gym box exclusive promo made it to English. Not sure if they will set a precedent for Espeon.
Dreams of a full 9 v and 9 vmax alt set in english dashed
Atleast my wallet can be grateful
Don’t worry, I’m sure you’ll be able to get them all in the Eevee Ultra Premium Deluxe Collection Box in 2025 along with 20 packs of Steam Siege and Crimson Invasion.
Lets say 2026, just to make sure i’ve gotten around to sucking up buying Japanese ones first!
Now that ES booster boxes are nearly sold out everywhere, when will wave 2 come?
Waiting for wave 2 to bring prices of boxes down!
With wave 2 of Chilling Reign being delayed and with no ETA yet you can imagine it’s going to have a domino affect on ES especially with the holidays rolling in. Would not be surprised if we don’t see Wave 2 until Nov/Dec
Who cares about CR? Majority of people (I heard) don’t.
Dec is too far, and I haven’t pull the top 2 chase cards yet. Hope what you’re saying isn’t true!
I think they’ll be on collection boxes. I hope so!
