PackRip is a free, browser-based Pokemon Trading Card Game booster pack opening simulator. Currently 95 expansions live (95 English + 10 vintage Japanese) — from the 1996-2001 Pocket Monsters Card Game (Expansion Pack, Jungle, Mystery of the Fossils, Rocket Gang) and Base Set in January 1999 through Silver Tempest in November 2022 — with new sets shipping every few weeks as the catalogue expands chronologically through every Pokemon TCG era. The catalogue is now growing into Scarlet & Violet and the Mega Evolution era, each shipping with matching pack art, era-specific rarity tiers (V/VMAX, VSTAR, Illustration Rare, SAR) and the same pull-rate distributions Pokemon collectors remember from the original print runs. The Diamond & Pearl + Platinum-era Lv.X mechanic is live across thirteen distinct Sinnoh and Platinum chase pulls with the silver/ice-blue/white shimmer overlay, the HGSS-era Prime + LEGEND tiers are live, the full Black & White era ships with Full Art Pokemon-EX, Dragon-type cards (Dragons Exalted), and the first-ever Gold Secret Rares (Boundaries Crossed onwards), the XY era spans the inaugural Mega Evolution debut through Primal Clash's α/Ω Ancient Traits and the gold BREAK Evolution cards of BREAKthrough, BREAKpoint, Fates Collide, Steam Siege and Evolutions, the Sun & Moon era debuts the GX rarity, and the complete Sword & Shield era (swsh1-12: Sword & Shield through Silver Tempest, 2022) introduces Pokémon V, VMAX, VSTAR, Radiant, Amazing Rare and Trainer Gallery cards.
14,411 collectible cards across 95 English booster sets, 10 vintage Japanese Pocket Monsters Card Game expansions (1996-2001), 53 WotC Black Star Promos, and 153 POP-series Play! Pokémon promos (2004-2009). The catalogue is built from the open-source Pokemon TCG API and includes Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur and the original 16 holos from Base Set, the 8 Shining Pokemon from Neo Destiny, all 9 Crystal cards from Aquapolis and Skyridge, every Pokemon-ex from Ruby & Sapphire through Power Keepers, the Gold Star Pokemon across Hidden Legends, Team Rocket Returns, Deoxys, Unseen Forces, Legend Maker, Holon Phantoms and Dragon Frontiers (including the Charizard Gold Star δ chase from Dragon Frontiers), the all-Delta Species expansion that closes the EX era, and the full Diamond & Pearl + Platinum-era Lv.X ultra-rare lineup (Empoleon, Infernape, Torterra, Magmortar, Lucario, Gardevoir, Darkrai, Cresselia, Leafeon, Glaceon, Regigigas, Mewtwo, Machamp, Dusknoir, Giratina, Dialga G, Palkia G and the rest of the Sinnoh / Platinum Lv.X lineup).
Most WotC-era packs contain 11 cards (1 Rare or Holo Rare, 3 Uncommon, 5 Common, 2 Energy). The single rare slot splits roughly 64% non-holo Rare, 28% Holo Rare and 5% Secret Rare, with ultra-rare tiers (Pokemon-ex, Shining, Crystal, Gold Star) layered into that same slot. e-Card era packs (Expedition, Aquapolis, Skyridge) shrink to 9 cards. EX-era packs (Ruby & Sapphire onwards) are also 9 cards but add a guaranteed reverse-holo slot and a roughly 1-in-6 chance at a Pokemon-ex. Neo Destiny rolls Shining Pokemon at about 2%; Aquapolis and Skyridge gate Crystal Pokemon to specific card IDs at roughly 1%. God Packs land 1-in-500 and deliver an all-holo 11-card rip.
Players open 5 free packs daily (6 with Cascade Badge, 7 with Hive Badge), earn coins by selling duplicates at real TCGPlayer market value (10% base sell rate, scaled by trainer level and badge multipliers), buy Basic (50), Premium (150) or Hunt (350) packs from the in-game shop, complete 3 daily / 1 weekly / 4 super quests, and progress through 16 Gym Badges (8 Kanto, 4 Johto, 4 Hoenn) that unlock permanent gameplay perks. A 28-day Monthly Login Calendar layers escalating coin rewards and weekly milestone packs on top. The Pack Dust crafting system lets every pulled card contribute set-specific dust (Common 1 → Crystal 50, +50% on duplicates) toward guaranteed acquisition of any missing card from that same set — endgame pity that doesn't break the per-pack economy.
Holo Rare and Secret Rare cards feature interactive holographic shimmer effects that follow your mouse or touch. Drag cards to tilt them and inspect the foil from every angle. Crystal Pokemon use a translucent prismatic effect; Pokemon-ex carry a red-orange-gold metallic shimmer; Gold Star Pokemon have a unique gold-overlay foil; Shining Pokemon glow with a metallic alternate-colour sheen; Delta Species (δ) Pokemon layer a violet-cyan-rose dual-type tint that composes on top of any underlying rarity. God Packs (1-in-500) deliver an all-holo 11-card pull.
