What the numbers mean
- Smaller openings point the same way: 381 release-day packs gave about 1 Special Illustration Rare per 75 packs, and a 55-pack opening one per 55. Small samples swing a lot.
- Ultraball works out about 0.4 Special Illustration Rares per 36-pack box, or roughly a 36% chance of at least one in a box.
- Deltia’s Gaming calls the Mega Hyper Rare odds the worst of the Mega Evolution series so far.
Rip or buy singles?
A rate for a rarity isn’t a rate for a card. If you want one specific chase card, your odds are a fraction of the rarity’s rate, often hundreds or thousands of packs. Buying the single is almost always cheaper. Open packs because you enjoy it, and read are Pokémon packs worth it?
