Salamence is card #109 of Evolving Skies (2021), a Rare Holo Pokémon, illustrated by kodama.
Salamence appears in 12 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Evolving Skies (2021) #109 card is the most recent of 12 printings (2003–2021). kodama only illustrated this Evolving Skies version; other printings credit Naoki Saito, Kazuyuki Kano, Kagemaru Himeno. Other Salamence printings sit at Rare, Promo rarity tiers, so this Rare Holo Evolving Skies card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes. Stat-line drift across reprints is real — this printing prints at 170 HP, while other Salamence cards in the catalogue range from 100 to 160 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Salamence hub page.

“Thanks to its fervent wishes, the cells in its body finally mutated, and at last it has its heart's desire—wings.” — Pokedex entry, National Dex #373
The 1 in 71 pull chance is calculated from the Evolving Skies rare-slot composition modelled in PackRip's pack generator. Because rare slots are split between Holo Rare, Pokemon-ex, Secret Rare, Shining, Crystal and Gold Star tiers (depending on the era), individual ultra-rare odds can run an order of magnitude lower than headline 1-in-3 holo-slot rates.
The TCGplayer market price for Salamence Evolving Skies #109 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $0.63 USD, which puts it in the common-bulk bracket. Graded copies sell for more than raw, but PackRip holds no grading-population or auction data, so no graded figure is estimated here. This snapshot is also what the in-game sell price is derived from.
Rather than chase the pull, you can craft this card for 150 Pack Dust from the Evolving Skies dust pool, which fills as you open Evolving Skies packs.

Prefer a native app? PackRip: TCG Card Packs for iOS runs the same pack-opening loop — rarity tiers, pity guarantees, offline support, App Badging when daily packs reset. It does not contain Salamence or any other Pokémon card: all of its artwork is original to PackRip and AI-generated. See the iOS app or download on the App Store.
Card data and card images come from the open-source Pokemon TCG API; pack art and set logos from ptcg-assets; market prices are a bundled snapshot of TCGplayer data. Pull rates shown on PackRip are the simulator's own published rate table, not official figures.
