Tarountula is card #199 of Scarlet & Violet (2023), a Illustration Rare Pokémon, illustrated by Miki Tanaka.
Tarountula appears in 6 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Scarlet & Violet (2023) #199 card is the only printing. Miki Tanaka only illustrated this Scarlet & Violet version; other printings credit Tika Matsuno, Pani Kobayashi, Kouki Saitou. Other Tarountula printings sit at Common rarity tier, so this Illustration Rare Scarlet & Violet card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes. Stat-line drift across reprints is real — this printing prints at 40 HP, while other Tarountula cards in the catalogue range from 40 to 60 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Tarountula hub page.
HP: 40 · Type: Grass · Weakness: Fire ×2 · Retreat cost: 1 energy
“The thread it secretes from its rear is as strong as wire. The secret behind the thread's strength is the topic of ongoing research.” — Pokedex entry, National Dex #917
The 1 in 432 pull chance is calculated from the Scarlet & Violet 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 Tarountula Scarlet & Violet #199 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $12.99 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 Scarlet & Violet dust pool, which fills as you open Scarlet & Violet 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 Tarountula 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.
