What's the format of booster pack cards???? I don't buy boosters. Is it....

1 Rare Holo/Rare Reverse Holo/Level X
1 Rare Non Holo
1 Trainer
3 UC
4 C

Is that correct or is there a different format?

Thanks~!!!
 
Pretty much but not always a trainer commens before you hit the rare and stuff then rare and uncommens
 
1 Rare (Might be a holo, LV.X or normal Rare), 1 Reverse, 3 Uncommons (Includes Trainers) and 4 or 5 Commons.
 
4-5 Commons
1 RH Holo
Holo/X/Rare/Non-holo Rare (Disappointing.)
3 Uncommons.


Sometimes you can get errors. I've gotten packs with 8 commons, an uncommon and a Rare.
 
MAN! That's so dissapointing! It's nothing like the older boosters! The older boosters AT LEAST! had a Rare Holo. These new ones don't even guarantee a rare holo. That sucks!!!! Oh well. I hope the packs I get will be worth my X.
 
Remember, there are only 3 Lv.Xs per Box, older sets than SV contain less Lv.X cards as well...so it's a chance of about 15% to pull a Lv.X out of packs from a sealed box, others could have got the Lv.X's earlier than you though. That's why I wouldn't buy packs in stores, single cards or sealed boxes are much cheaper to get the stuff you need.

yes, that was VERY clear. thank you!
 
Even in the oldest of sets (base-rocket) you weren't guaranteed a holo, it was a 1 in 3 chance. I don't think any sets had the ratio you described, at least not in English.

good point. all the packs i've opened were japanese. at least with the japanese gym packs, i received 1 holo, 1 rare, 1 trainer, 3 UC, and 4 C. i thought it was like that for all. guess i was wrong. but it's cool. if my trade goes through, i'll find out for sure how the packs work.

thanks!

Fixed (Shinies count as RH).
 
Diamond and Pearl can have a basic energy card in a pack, because it counts as a common, but no set since DP has had Basic Energy in it.

As for the OP, here is how it goes:

1 Rare
1 RH
3 Uncommon
5 Common

You get a holo in about 1 in every 3 packs, and you get a Level X in about 1 in every 15-18 packs. (for sets LA-on)]
