The odds

Vikavolt V is a Ultra Rare in Darkness Ablaze — the pack's hit slot lands on Ultra Rare 10% of the time, split across 13 ultra rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 131 packs.

Ultra Rare10%13 cards

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.

⚖️ Risk-adjusted return

Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 590 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1066.9%$30.00
PSA 928.8%$12.00
PSA ≤84.2%$2.00

Net = graded value − raw value − grading cost (tier fee + ~$20 round-trip shipping), using PSA fees as of 2026-06-28; the paused PSA Value tier is excluded so this isn't overstated. Gem rate is estimated from cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies — so it overstates the true grade rate. Treat it as a guide, not a guarantee.

Population across gradersPSA, CGC & BGS — every grade, with gem rates
