Steelix appears in 24 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Paradox Rift (2023) #208 card is one of 24 printings spanning 1999–2025. nisimono only illustrated this Paradox Rift version; other printings credit 5ban Graphics, Kouki Saitou, Naoyo Kimura. Other Steelix printings sit at Rare, Rare Holo, Rare Prime, Uncommon rarity tiers, so this Illustration Rare Paradox Rift card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes. Stat-line drift across reprints is real — this printing prints at 180 HP, while other Steelix cards in the catalogue range from 100 to 200 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Steelix hub page.

“It is thought its body transformed as a result of iron accumulating internally from swallowing soil.” — Pokedex entry, National Dex #208
The 1 in 612 pull chance is calculated from the Paradox Rift 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 Steelix Paradox Rift #208 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $42.83 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 Paradox Rift dust pool, which fills as you open Paradox Rift 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 Steelix 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.
