>>28334668>Anecdotes stop being anecdotes when it happens consistently.That's all speculation. While you speculate that you don't get shit from 50 packs, I speculate that you do. Speculation hardly seems worthy of being a FAQ.
>definitely nothing in the correct quantitiesOnce again, that does not matter. You aren't looking to complete a deck in 50 packs. You're looking to get cards that you can use for a deck. You do NOT need to complete a deck with the cards from trainer challenge. Trainer challenge does NOT give you all the cards you need to complete a deck. Trainer challenge DOES give you cards that you can use to build a deck. (But not complete a deck)
Okay I'll drop that point now.
>and no Shaymin, I'm genuinely sorryNo need to be. It's an embarrassment of riches at this point.>which isn't enough to build you a deckBut I got spirit links, a mega turbo, altarias, sky fields, and in all fairness a 2-1 line of mega ray, as the dragon type is often more preferable than the colorless one. Nevermind the other cards that were/are useful in other decks. See my repetitive lines up above if you wanna see how I feel about needing to complete a deck here.
> Instead of gambling for packs and praying you get an Alakazam out of the few FC you get (if any), why not enter two tournaments and trade for it instantly?A gamble assumes you stand to lose something. Like I said much earlier, after you get a number of the boxes on the mystery wheel, ladder isn't very rewarding. Your time would be better spent grinding out free packs in the trainer challenge.
Tickets are also plentiful for most veteran players, but tickets certainly aren't for new players. On average it takes 10 mystery boxes for scrounge up 4 tickets.
