This should contain Shadowless cards, right? It has the correct date and artwork. Or did I just get burned and I’ll end up with a $20 Unlimited Machamp? 
I guess I’ll find out soon enough… I like to gamble anyway. Here’s hoping for a mint or better Shadowless Machamp + fresh bulk.
It may or may not – you need to see where the deck is located once you receive the package to determine if it’s shadowless or not.
Would you care to clarify? I’ll probably open it anyway and sell it opened for like half what I paid if it’s Unlimited, but I’d like to know how you guys determine that. I also heard if counters are loose in the box it’s Shadowless, or does that mainly apply to theme decks? Total noob here.
Shadowless 2-player boxes will have the 60-card deck aligned to the upper side of the box I believe with the damage counters on the other side – if you shake the box and the damage counters are moving around, then it’s more than likely a shadowless box.
Much appreciated. Just came across the very same info elsewhere. Crossing fingers. 
So I just received it today and I’m pretty sure it’s not Shadowless. 
I think I’ll just keep it as is and hold for a few years hope to at least get my $90 or so it cost with Global Shipping. You win some and you lose some.
Wrote a guide on it, check it out sometime. Yeah, unfortunately the energies don’t always mean shadowless, there was the transition period between the old and new boxes as far as I know. My rate has been probably 75%-80% of them being shadowless, but I have had my fair share of shadowed ones so imo its always worth the risk.
AFAIK the ones that are not shadowless with the format shown are supposed to contain the diglett error. For my first several, this was the case, though I have heard of situations where it wasn’t.
Yeah, I had this in my guide, but I have had a few where the error was no present so I don’t think its 100%. But always worth it to check, will only be out a small amount of cash if not!
Interesting. Thanks for the info guys.
Yeah, it was a total gamble from a non Pokemon seller so I would take that chance any time. I either end up with a $50 box or a $200+ one with a very small chance a potential Gem Mint Machamp($1000+) if I chose to open it.
Now I’m curious about the Diglett error. I’ll update this thread if I decide to take a peak at what’s inside.
