Have you ever seen a Gold Rare in Wonder Picks? What's the highest rarity you've been able to grab? (crazypeople.online)

Just a bit of random curiosity about what others are seeing in this area. The highest rarity I ever see are Rainbow Rares. Once or twice a month is about the most I can remember.

Since they added the Shiny Rares I thought I'd see more of those than I have too. I seem to have better luck pulling them from packs than seeing them in the Wonder Pick area at all.

The craziest Wonder Pick pack I've seen was the "god pack" I posted here awhile back that I ended up getting a Full Art Zapdos from. It makes me wonder (no pun intended) how the algorithm is tuned for Wonder Picks. Is it a pure random chance to see the packs that have high rarity cards, or is there some sort of "dangling carrot" manipulation at play to entice people into spending more money...

What are your thoughts?

Interesting, I thought I'd seen the non-full art shiny pokemon there before but I guess I'm wrong.
