The odds

Tyranitar is a Holo / V / ex in Expedition Base Set — the pack's hit slot lands on Holo / V / ex 33% of the time, split across 32 holo / v / ex cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 97 packs.

Holo / V / ex33%32 cards

PSA graded so far1,989
Gem Mint 1073
Total graded1,989

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 1,989 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 103.7%$14,500.00
PSA 919.7%$1,500.00
PSA ≤876.6%$317.00

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

What NM / LP / MP actually mean — and how much they cost

For context: a graded PSA 1 slab of this card sells for about $330 (cert-verified) — a heavily-played raw copy shouldn't cost much more than that.
