The odds

Ho-Oh is a Rare in POP Series 5 — the pack's hit slot lands on Rare 100% of the time, split across 6 rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 6 packs.

Rare100%6 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)0.3%1 of 369
PSA 98.4%31 of 369
PSA graded so far369
Gem Mint 101
Total graded369

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.

PSA 8$187.50$72+$9810.9×

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. Real outcome depends on the grade achieved; PSA 10 is best-case.

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

Only 0% of 369 PSA-graded Ho-Oh copies are a gem-mint 10 (1 of 369) — the rest grade lower.
