The odds

Mega Lucario ex is a Secret / Rainbow in Mega Evolution — the pack's hit slot lands on Secret / Rainbow 2.5% of the time, split across 12 secret / rainbow cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 482 packs.

Secret / Rainbow2.5%12 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)28.3%2,489 of 8,807
PSA 949.9%4,399 of 8,807
PSA graded so far8,807
Gem Mint 102,489
Total graded8,807

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 8,807 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1028.3%$817.00
PSA 949.9%$250.00
PSA ≤821.8%$275.00

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
