So a booster pack has a card I want. That card has 2 diferent forms of foil. I don't care for that I only want the card. The booster can have any of 122 cards. If I was taking only 1 card at random the probability would be 2/122 of getting the card I want. Since the booster pack has 10 cards and assuming none of the 10 cards are the same card. What is the probability of me getting the card I want?

just buy the fucking lone card on TCGPlayer

It depends on the rarity actually. Pokemon packs come with 5 commons, 3 uncommons, 1 foil, and 1 rare or higher card. So out of Phantom Forces, let's say you want a certain uncommon. There's a 1/36 chance you'll get that, not 1/122. Then you get 3 shots at that 1/36 chance, and you can't get duplicates in the same pack unless they're different rarities (I think you can get an uncommon and your foil can be the same uncommon, in reverse foil)

I'd write out this whole thing but this thread's been doomed to failure ever since the first post told you to go buy a physical card on TCGplayer for the Pokemon TCG Online client.

It's for the online tcg
Also I don't want to spend real money

>>27227093
then fucking trade away all your spare packs for the card or buy codes
>>
>>27227108
>the entire point of the thread is asking the chance that out of a 10 card pack, mostly only obtainable with codes, what is the chance of getting X card
>fucking buy codes fucker
Calm the fuck down. You don't need to lash out just because you keep being wrong about everything.

It's a black star one I think they are both Holo, one in the picture other in the text area.

You can't trade packs.
>>
I mean you can but only the ones obtained with codes from real money buys.
>>
>>27227222
Just the ones you earn from trainer challenge/quests and the ones you buy in the store for coins. You can trade packs you redeem from code cards and the ones you win from tournaments.

>>27227199
There's basically a 1/50 chance you'll pull the exact one you want, but there's something like a 30/50 chance you'll pull something better and you can just trade for it unless it's a locked pack.
