Buy it outright. Pikachu Ex is $872 on the marketplace. Its best pack route is the Diamond Pack at $1,000, where it sits in the $750-$1,000 band — that band hits 20.00% of the time and we count 30 cards in it, so this one slab is at most a 0.667% pull. That works out to 150 packs, or about $150,000, to land this specific card — and that is the optimistic end, because the real pool is larger than the 30 cards we can see. Packs are the wrong tool for a named card.
| Tier | Ticket | Band | Band odds | Expected spend for this card |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diamond Pack | $1,000 | the $750-$1,000 band | 20.00% | $150,000+ |
Per-card chance = band probability / cards counted in that band's pool. Our pool data is a sample, so the per-card chance is an upper bound and the expected spend is a lower bound.
