Plusle is card #39 of Dark Explorers (2012), a Common Pokémon, illustrated by Naoki Saito.
Plusle appears in 19 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Dark Explorers (2012) #39 card is one of 19 printings spanning 2003–2023. Naoki Saito only illustrated this Dark Explorers version; other printings credit Kouki Saitou, Masakazu Fukuda, Suwama Chiaki. Other Plusle printings sit at Uncommon, Rare, Rare Holo, Promo rarity tiers, so this Common Dark Explorers 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 Plusle cards in the catalogue range from 50 to 70 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Plusle hub page.
HP: 60 · Type: Lightning · Weakness: Fighting ×2 · Retreat cost: 1 energy
“It cheers on friends with pom-poms made of sparks. It drains power from telephone poles.” — Pokedex entry, National Dex #311
The 12.1% pull chance is calculated from the Dark Explorers 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 Plusle Dark Explorers #39 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $6.92 USD, which puts it in the budget binder 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 Dark Explorers dust pool, which fills as you open Dark Explorers 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 Plusle 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.
