Open free Paldean Fates (2024) Pokémon TCG booster packs online. 245 cards, published pull rates, per-card odds, expected pack value, no signup.
Paldean Fates is the 2024 Pokémon Trading Card Game booster expansion containing 245 cards. PackRip's free, browser-based simulator uses its own set-specific pull-rate model for Scarlet & Violet era packs, not official physical-product odds. No signup, no email or purchase is required. Start with daily free packs and use coins earned through gameplay for more; your pulls are tracked in your collection.
Paldean Fates deals the 10-card layout PackRip uses outside the e-Card and EX eras: 1 Rare or Holo Rare in the rare slot, 3 Uncommon, 4 Common, 1 Basic Energy, and 1 guaranteed Reverse Holo. On Paldean Fates that slot resolves at 46.9% plain Rare; this set has no Holo Rare tier. The remaining 53.1% goes to this set's ultra-rare tiers — ex, Shiny Vault, Full Art and 3 more. These are Paldean Fates's effective rates, not the nominal band widths: the rare slot is one roll through a cumulative cascade, and a band whose pool this set does not fill passes its share down to the next tier that does.
Pack EV is concentrated almost entirely in the rare slot — the 9 non-rare slots cycle uniformly through the common/uncommon pool. The rates above come from packGenerator.ts via the shared cascade model, so this page, the in-app odds and the engine cannot disagree.
The highest-priced chase cards currently tracked from Paldean Fates on TCGplayer, in market-value order. Each one links to the dedicated chase pull-odds page, which shows the exact per-pack hit rate, 50%/95% confidence bands, and a pack-rip-vs-single-buy breakdown. These are the cards that drive Paldean Fates's expected pack value.
The complete top-25 Paldean Fates market-value list ranks every priced card in the set; the Paldean Fates binder calculator shows how many packs it takes to complete the full checklist.
The full expected-value math for Paldean Fates booster packs — average payout per pack across thousands of independent rolls at current TCGplayer market prices — lives on the dedicated EV calculator at /ev/sv4pt5. That page weights each rarity tier by its actual rare-slot probability and aggregates against the live price snapshot, so the EV figure reflects the same RNG the simulator uses. Use it to decide whether sealed-pack rips beat single buys for your specific target chase.
Completing the full 245-card Paldean Fates binder is a coupon-collector problem: lower-rarity slots finish fast, the rarest tier dominates the tail. The breakdown — expected packs to 95% completion, the bottleneck rarity, sealed-cost vs singles-cost comparison — lives at /binder/sv4pt5. Track in-simulator progress on the Paldean Fates collection screen.
Every printing in Paldean Fates has its own page with rarity, market price, pull odds, and the full set/sub-type/HP/weakness/illustrator profile. Browse the checklist from /collection/sv4pt5, or open a single printing directly — Mew ex #232 or Charizard ex #234.
| Formula | One rare-slot draw plus 3 uncommon, 4 common, and 1 energy slots per pack; rare-slot tier weights come from rareSlotRates(). |
|---|---|
| Assumptions | Independent pack rolls, uniform card selection inside each rarity tier, no pity timers, no first-edition or condition variants. |
| Data source | Set checklist data from the bundled Pokemon TCG API catalog; pack art/logos from ptcg-assets; pull-rate constants mirrored from the live simulator. |
| Update cadence | Regenerated by the prerender build whenever set metadata, catalog data, or pull-rate code changes. |
| Limitations | Virtual pulls are reproducible simulator math, not resale advice and not a guarantee for any individual sealed product run. |
PackRip: TCG Card Packs is a separate native iOS app built around the same pack-opening ritual — rarity tiers, pity guarantees, offline play, App Badging when daily packs reset. It ships its own original card artwork rather than the Paldean Fates checklist, and it keeps a separate save from the web simulator. See the iOS app or grab it on the App Store.

Is opening Paldean Fates packs free on PackRip?
Yes. PackRip is a free, browser-based Pokémon TCG booster pack opening simulator — no account, no signup, no payment, no email. Open as many Paldean Fates packs as you like; daily free packs reset every day, with extra packs unlocked via in-game badges. Cards are simulated and do not have resale value.
How accurate are the pull rates?
Pull rates in PackRip's Paldean Fates simulator come from PackRip's own published per-rarity rate table — a fixed model, not a measurement of the real print run, which was never published. The exact per-rarity slot probabilities live in packGenerator.ts and are build-time asserted against the prerender constants — the simulator and every SEO landing page cannot drift out of sync. Independent random pulls, no pity timers, no soft caps, no first-edition split.
