My Little Pony TCG Rarity & Pull Rate Guide: Fantasy Wonderland (BP01), Discord Edition (BP02) & Nightmare Night (BP03)

If you open the playable My Little Pony TCG (Fantasy Wonderland BP01, Discord Edition BP02 or Nightmare Night BP03), this is the only rarity chart you need. All three sets share one rarity system and one set of pull rates, published by Kayou for the English booster boxes. Below is every tier, every ratio and exactly what a sealed box and a sealed master case guarantee you.

Ready to open one? We stock all three English booster boxes: Fantasy Wonderland (BP01), Discord Edition (BP02) and Nightmare Night (BP03). Each one is 20 packs of 5 cards with the same odds you'll find below.

BP01, BP02 and BP03 use the same system

The three playable sets are built the same way:

• 13 rarities with five Shining (※) parallel tiers
• 191 cards in BP01 and BP02, 190 cards in BP03
• 20 packs per box, 5 cards per pack
• 640 packs per master case (32 boxes)

Because the structure is the same, the pull rates below apply to the Fantasy Wonderland, Discord Edition and Nightmare Night English booster boxes. Learn one and you know them all.

How to read a card code: the ※ (Shining) symbol

Every card carries a rarity code (e.g. BP01-CR01). The mark that matters most is:

※ = Shining. Alternate artwork with an upgraded foil finish. These are the true chase cards.

Key quirk: a Shining card shares its number with the ordinary version. ※BP01-CR01 Twilight Sparkle and BP01-CR01 Twilight Sparkle are two different cards with the same code. The ※ on the card face is the only way to tell them apart.

The rarity ladder, lowest to highest

Base tiers: C (Common) · U (Uncommon) · SPR (Sapphire Rare) · ER (Emerald Rare) · SR (Silver Rare) · GR (Gold Rare) · CR (Colorful Rare) · RR (Ruby Rare)

Shining (※) tiers, by scarcity: ER※ ≈ GR※ · SPR※ · CR※ · RR※ (the top chase)

Note the Shining order isn't what you'd guess: Shining Colorful (CR※) is rarer than Shining Gold (GR※) and Shining Ruby (RR※) sits at the very top.

Confirmed pull rates (Kayou, English booster boxes)

Card rarity	Per pack	Per box (20)	Per master case (640)
C	2 : 1*	40 : 1*	1280 : 1*
U / SPR	1 : 1*	20 : 1*	640 : 1*
ER	1 : 1.05	19.05 : 1	610 : 1
SR	1 : 2.86	7 : 1	224 : 1
Additional U / SPR	1 : 3.03	6.6 : 1	211 : 1
GR	1 : 10	2 : 1*	64 : 1*
CR	1 : 10	2 : 1*	64 : 1*
RR	1 : 20	1 : 1*	32 : 1*
GR※	1 : 20	1 : 1*	32 : 1*
ER※	1 : 20	1 : 1*	32 : 1*
SPR※	1 : 80	1 : 4	8 : 1*
CR※	1 : 160	1 : 8	4 : 1*
RR※	1 : 640	1 : 32	1 : 1*

* = guaranteed. "Per pack 1 : 20" means one card every 20 packs.

What every sealed box guarantees

From the starred (*) rows, a single sealed box always contains at least:

• 40 × Common
• 20 × Uncommon / Sapphire Rare
• ~19 × Emerald Rare
• ~7 × Silver Rare
• ~2 × Gold Rare (GR)
• ~2 × Colorful Rare (CR)
• 1 × Ruby Rare (RR)
• 1 × Shining Gold Rare (GR※)
• 1 × Shining Emerald Rare (ER※)

So no BP01, BP02 or BP03 box is ever a "dead" box. A Shining Gold and a Shining Emerald are locked in every time.

Nightmare Night boxes also come with a bonus promo pack holding a full-art Treat token card.

Across a sealed master case (32 boxes / 640 packs) you're additionally guaranteed: 8 × Shining Sapphire (SPR※), 4 × Shining Colorful (CR※) and 1 × Shining Ruby Rare (RR※).

Every rarity, starring Fluttershy

Full disclosure: we could have used thirteen different ponies to show off the thirteen rarities. We did not. Every single card below is Fluttershy, because she is the best pony and this is our guide. Consider it a complete BP01 rarity ladder that also happens to be a Fluttershy shrine. You're welcome.

Here is exactly what each tier looks like, from the card in every pack to the one you'll find once per sealed case.

Common (C) · BP01-C04

Forty in every box. Where every Fluttershy collection begins.

Uncommon (U) · BP01-U04

A small step up, still one of the easiest pulls in the set.

Sapphire Rare (SPR) · BP01-SPR17 · "Attend to Cure"

The Event-card side of the base line.

Emerald Rare (ER) · SD01-ER08 · "Ponyville Suburb"

A Scene card, roughly one per pack. Note the SD01 code: BP01's Emerald Rares carry the starter-deck numbering.

Silver Rare (SR) · BP01-SR02

About seven per box.

Gold Rare (GR) · BP01-GR02

Around two per box. The nap-with-the-critters art is peak Fluttershy.

Colorful Rare (CR) · BP01-CR02

Around two per box, full effect text.

Ruby Rare (RR) · BP01-RR02

One guaranteed per box. Full-art, no game text, artist signature.

Now the five Shining (※) tiers, the real chase:

Shining Emerald Rare (ER※) · ※SD01-ER02 · "Fluttershy's Cottage"

Guaranteed one per box.

Shining Gold Rare (GR※) · ※BP01-GR02

Guaranteed one per box. The trophy most single-box openers keep.

Shining Sapphire Rare (SPR※) · ※BP01-SPR02 · "Time for Clean-up!"

About one per 4 boxes.

Shining Colorful Rare (CR※) · ※BP01-CR02

About one per 8 boxes, so rarer than Shining Gold.

Shining Ruby Rare (RR※) · ※BP01-RR02

The top chase, one per sealed master case. And yes, she's still Fluttershy.

The chase tiers, ranked

RR※, Shining Ruby Rare (the top chase). 1 : 640 packs, so one per sealed master case and you don't get to choose which of the six you find. The rarest cards in the set.

CR※, Shining Colorful Rare. 1 : 160 packs, about one per 8 boxes. The most achievable complete Shining tier for set-builders, but a long project.

SPR※, Shining Sapphire Rare. 1 : 80 packs, about one per 4 boxes.

GR※ & ER※, Shining Gold and Shining Emerald. 1 : 20 packs, one of each guaranteed in every box. The trophy most single-box openers walk away with.

BP01 vs BP02 vs BP03: same odds, different chase

The pull rates are identical. What changes between the sets is the cast, the art and the scene mechanic:

• BP01 Fantasy Wonderland: Season 1 cast. Six full-art ※ Shining Ruby Rares of the Mane Six; Emerald Rare scene cards show location exteriors.
• BP02 Discord Edition: Season 2 cast, Discord joins as a playable character. 47 Shining cards total, with the Gold Rare run pairing the Mane Six with Daring Do and Emerald Rare scene cards showing the interiors of the same six locations (so they pair with BP01's exteriors).
• BP03 Nightmare Night: the Halloween set. The Mane Six are in costume and the villains join the party, with Nightmare Moon, Discord, Queen Chrysalis and King Sombra all in the set. 46 Shining cards total. The Shining Gold Rares go to Star Swirl the Bearded, Twilight Sparkle, Princess Luna, Shining Armor and Princess Cadance, so there are five to find instead of six. The Emerald Rare scenes are Nightmare Night Square and Nightmare Night Market. It also brings in Treats, a new marker that some cards hand out, spend or hold.

Which chase should you go for?

• Opening one box? Your GR※ and ER※ are guaranteed, so those are your trophies.
• Building a set? The twelve CR※ (1 per 8 boxes) is the most realistic complete Shining tier.
• Breaking a case? The RR※ is the whole reason to do it: one guaranteed per master case, six possibilities.

Protecting a chase pull

Penny sleeve straight away, then a toploader or semi-rigid holder. Shining foils scratch easily, so tilt the card to see the effect rather than running a thumb across the face. Submitting to PSA or CGC? Semi-rigid holders are what graders want.
