Pikachu is card #39 of Next Destinies (2012), a Common Pokémon, illustrated by Akira Komayama.
Pikachu appears in 105 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Next Destinies (2012) #39 card is one of 105 printings spanning 1996–2026. Other Pikachu printings sit at Promo, Rare Secret, Uncommon, Rare Holo rarity tiers, so this Common Next Destinies card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes. Stat-line drift across reprints is real — this printing prints at 60 HP, while other Pikachu cards in the catalogue range from 30 to 70 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Pikachu hub page.
HP: 60 · Type: Lightning · Weakness: Fighting ×2 · Retreat cost: 1 energy · Evolves into: Raichu
“It occasionally uses an electric shock to recharge a fellow Pikachu that is in a weakened state.” — Pokedex entry, National Dex #25
The 13.8% pull chance is calculated from the Next Destinies 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 Pikachu Next Destinies #39 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $4.70 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 10 Pack Dust from the Next Destinies dust pool, which fills as you open Next Destinies 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 Pikachu 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.
