Anatomy of a Normal Pack

Rare Pack / God Pack (0.05%) — 0.05%
Roughly 1 in 2000 packs is a Rare Pack. Every one of the five cards is rolled from a high-rarity table — meaning the entire pack is full of 1★, 2★, 3★ or Crown Rare cards.

Pack Points: the built-in safety net
There is no hidden pity timer in Pokémon TCG Pocket, but every pack you open grants 5 Pack Points, and any card can be bought outright with points from its expansion. At 2,500 points, even the worst luck guarantees any Crown Rare after 500 packs.

Pack-opening tips
- Pull rates are independent: opening 100 packs in a row doesn't increase your odds of a Crown Rare on pack 101.
- The 5th card is much more generous than the 4th — about a 1 in 7 chance of pulling something rarer than 3-Diamond.
