Your odds of pulling Raichu at Addictimon
Every Addictimon pack is sealed with its odds printed on the listing, randomised before sealing, the same chance for every customer. These are the packs that can hold a Base Set Raichu:
| Pack | Odds of Raichu |
|---|---|
|
Base Set Holo Pack — Premium Brilliant–Mint · £47.95 |
1 in 16 |
|
Base Set Holo Pack — Classic Lightly–Heavily Played · £29.95 |
1 in 16 |
Two more Base Set lines hold holos, with odds set for the range rather than for one named card: the Base Set Graded Pack (graded 8–10, £34.95) holds a graded Base Set holographic in 1 in 15 packs, and the Shadowless Pack — Premium (Near Mint–Mint, £16.95) holds a Shadowless holographic in 1 in 20 packs. Those rates cover any of the Base Set holos, not Raichu alone.
The Base Set Holo packs are the route: a guaranteed 1999 holo, one in sixteen that it is Raichu.
Condition
Premium packs carry Brilliant–Mint cards. Classic packs carry played cards, Lightly to Heavily Played, at the lower price. The Big Three Pack is EX–Mint. The graded pack holds a slab graded 8–10. The tier is on every pack page, and the card inside is exactly what the listing says it is.
