Your odds at list price
The chance that the cards you pull are worth more than you paid at the list price (¥180 a pack), opening sealed packs nobody has searched. Only Art Rares and up count, at today's Japanese shop prices; commons and other bulk count as ¥0.
| You open | You pay | Chance to get more back | Typical pull |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 pack | ¥180 | 16% | ¥0 |
| 5 packs | ¥900 | 27–29% | ¥420 |
| 10 packs | ¥1,800 | 30–34% | ¥1,040 |
| 1 box (30 packs) | ¥5,400 | 25–38% | ¥4,070 |
Why a box is different: a box isn't 30 random packs. Japanese boxes follow a pattern, about 3 Art Rares and 1–2 Super Rares in every box, so a box almost never comes up empty, but whether it beats its ¥5,400 cost depends mostly on an SAR (about one box in 3–6). That's why the box chance here is higher than for 10 loose packs.
These are estimates: The Pokémon Company doesn't publish pull rates. Rates from opening reports (torecolle, cardchusen); a range means the sources disagree on the SAR rate. Shop prices are asking prices: Pokémon cards actually sell for less (about 60% on Yahoo! Auctions), so treat these as a best case. Typical pull = the median value of what you'd open.
Is a box worth opening?
A box costs ¥11,800 today (Card Rush, 2.2× the ¥5,400 list price). An average box holds about ¥5,126–6,529 of Art Rares and up at asking prices: ¥434–553 back per ¥1,000 spent. Best value of the 3 sets below. On average a sealed box returns about 49% of its price, so buying the single card you want is cheaper.
Chase odds: between 1 box in 3 and 1 in 6 has an SAR; about 1 box in 10 has an Ultra Rare.
| Set | Box today | Avg box holds | Back per ¥1,000 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Battle Partners | ¥11,800 (2.2× list) | ¥5,126–6,529 | ¥434–553 |
| Storm Emeralda | ¥12,800 (2.1× list) | ¥5,303 | ¥414 |
| Abyss Eye | ¥9,480 (1.6× list) | ¥3,513–4,438 | ¥371–468 |
Estimate, same assumptions as the odds above: about 3 Art Rares and 1.5 Super Rares a box, the SAR and Mega Hyper Rare rates from the opening reports, bulk counted as ¥0, each card at its average Japanese shop asking price (cards sell for less, about 60%). Box price: lowest in-stock price today.
