The odds
Moltres is a Holo / V / ex in Brilliant Stars — the pack's hit slot lands on Holo / V / ex 27.9% of the time, split across 33 holo / v / ex cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 118 packs.
Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.
Population across gradersPSA, CGC & BGS — every grade, with gem rates
Only 26% of 2,274 CGC-graded Moltres copies are a gem-mint 10 (588 of 2,274) — the rest grade lower.
Real graded population from PSA, CGC & BGS — a lower gem rate means a Moltres 10 is harder to pull.
