Is this the same website that said Scream promos would be released in English?
From what they shared, this looks more like release material for the family set or Unified Minds/Miracle Twins. Miracle Twins releases the same month (August). Also the Japanese stock image for the set features Mewtwo & Mew. Oh and Ultra Shiny GX is currently the largest set in the hobby.
It’s possible they could also be breaking down the Family Card Set into indivudal promo boxes. Something like a Mewtwo/Mew Deck, Raichu/Pikachu Deck, a Charizard/? Deck, Etc Etc. The Shiny aspect might just be a rumor, or possibly them making them shiny for the english release.
Total Cards has a habit of jumping the gun to get out first on some of this stuff. The absolute closest we would ever get is a Best of XY Collection Box equivalent.
@xzini, Pokebeach is speculating the same thing. Everyone has been speculating from the initial release of Shiny GX.
This is such a great set, but if it gets an english release like Best of XY, it will be forgotten. The English release for BOXY isn’t even on the Bulba page for Best of XY. The release was haphazard, splintered, and given the super catchy name: “premium trainer xy collection”.
A theory to reduce Ultra Shiny GX into a mini set would be just release the 90 shining cards. If that were true, then every card in the set would be shiny?
Also “Hidden Fates” is the name for a set with the most Shiny cards ever released?
Honestly I think both sources are just clickbaiting.
Are there any reasons why we’d never see any of the shiny cards from Ultra Shiny GX eventually make it to an English release? I’d imagine any set with these cards included would do well. I also can’t imagine the English side looking at Ultra Shiny GX and being like, “nah, that’s okay.”
I’ve been holding out on buying the Japanese cards because I’d like to have them in English but I can only wait for so long. $13 dollars for Shiny Mewtwo on Ebay is so tempting and I wonder what would happen to those prices if we somehow got confirmation that it wasn’t coming in English? My struggles!
I decided to change the title of this thread as it’s starting to seem more likely that it’s not going to be GX Ultra Shiny English release. Let’s wait and see what it turns out to be.
