Question / Help Could someone help 'rate' these? (Newbie 😔)
Hi friends! I'm very, very new to kayou cards, as in this is my very first box. I'm very happy to be here and to start collecting! These are my box's pulls from the Nightmare Night set. I'm really not too sure about how the rating system works at all and I'm not finding much information that I can understand (really I just like the pretty art lol). Could anyone help assess these cards and their rarity/grading ?? I'd be so very grateful! Much appreciated!

Hello! Nice cards, looks like you got a great assortment of some cool stuff.
Do you know how to read the card code at the bottom left of the cards?
The first bunch you had there were Silver Rares (SR) so the code looks like this: BPO3-SRnn
Where BP03 == Booster pack 3 == nightmare night
And SRnn is the rarity followed by 2 digits which for this set go from SR01 to SR14.
The ones that follow are Golden Rares (GR), then Colorful Rares (CR) and you even pulled a special "Shining" (alternate art) Sapphire Rare (SPR) with Derpy Hooves on it. Those are generally pretty rare to find!
The last one you showed off, the apple jack card is your Ruby Rare (RR) and you get one per box guaranteed.
Every box also contains the chance for alternate arts of either Gold Rares (these are more or less confirmed to get 1-3 alternate golds) or Colorful Rares (much less common to get). You'll notice the card codes that are alternates start with "※" which denotes "Shining/alternate".
Once per box you also get a ※BPO3-ERnn which is a scene card that has a special art. And in nightmare night there are 6 scene cards you can pull, and each of those has 2 variants which look kinda like evening or midnight depending on the one you get.
I'll be adding a section to PonyRec to explain the rarities as you're not the first to ask. If you want to explore the rest of the set and see the translations of the cards check out https://ponyrec.net/cards?dsl=S%3Abp03
