Double Colorless Energy is a Uncommon Energy card from the Base Set (1999) Pokemon Trading Card Game expansion, illustrated by Keiji Kinebuchi. Double Colorless Energy occupies card number 96 in the Base Set numbering system.
Double Colorless Energy appears in 14 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Base Set (1999) #96 card is one of 14 printings spanning 1996–2017. Other Double Colorless Energy printings sit at Rare Secret rarity tier, so this Uncommon Base Set card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes.
Released in January 1999 by Wizards of the Coast, the Base Set is the original English-language Pokemon Trading Card Game release. Its 102 cards include the iconic 16 Holo Rares — among them Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur — that defined the look of the entire WotC era. First Edition print runs are some of the most valuable Pokemon cards ever made, with PSA 10 Charizards regularly clearing six figures at auction; Unlimited prints (the version PackRip simulates) remain blue-chip pulls thanks to the original Mitsuhiro Arita / Ken Sugimori artwork.
Uncommon cards are the second-tier pulls — three per pack in WotC layouts, two in e-Card and three in EX. Many evolutions and supporter cards live here; competitive deck builders historically relied on Uncommon Trainer cards more than any other rarity tier.
The 28.6% pull chance is calculated from the Base Set 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 current TCGPlayer market median for Double Colorless Energy Base #96 sits at approximately $5.09 USD (Unlimited edition), placing it in the budget binder bracket. Market value depends heavily on grading: PSA 9 copies typically sell at a meaningful premium over raw, and PSA 10 (gem mint) population reports drive a steeper premium for popular ultra-rares. PackRip uses TCGPlayer's market median as its in-game sell-price source.
If you'd rather guarantee this card than chase the 28.6% pull, PackRip's Pack Dust crafting system lets you spend 25 dust from the Base Set pool. Every Base Set pack you open contributes dust to that pool — duplicates pay 30% extra. Dust is per-set on purpose so you can't fund a Crystal craft with Common dust from an easier set.

Pokémon promos (2004-2009), and Trainer Gallery subsets. The catalogue is built from the open-source Pokemon TCG API and includes Charizard, Blastoise, Venusaur and the original 16 holos from Base Set, Shining Pokemon, Crystal Pokemon, every Pokemon-ex from Ruby & Sapphire through Power Keepers, Gold Star Pokemon, Delta Species, Diamond & Pearl + Platinum Lv.X, HGSS Prime + LEGEND, BW Full Art, XY Mega EX and BREAK, Sun & Moon GX, Sword & Shield V/VMAX/VSTAR, and Scarlet & Violet Illustration Rare / Special Illustration Rare chase cards.
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.
