Pikachu ex is card #57 of Surging Sparks (2024), a Double Rare Pokémon.
Pikachu ex appears in 14 printings across PackRip's catalogue. The Surging Sparks (2024) #57 card is one of 14 printings spanning 2013–2026. Other Pikachu ex printings sit at Special Illustration Rare, Ultra Rare, Hyper Rare, Promo rarity tiers, so this Double Rare Surging Sparks card is not interchangeable for set-completion or value purposes. Stat-line drift across reprints is real — this printing prints at 200 HP, while other Pikachu ex cards in the catalogue range from 130 to 200 HP. For the full cross-set comparison see the Pikachu ex hub page.
HP: 200 · Type: Lightning · Weakness: Fighting ×2 · Retreat cost: 1 energy · Evolves into: Raichu
The 1 in 108 pull chance is calculated from the Surging Sparks 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 ex Surging Sparks #57 in PackRip's latest snapshot is about $4.51 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 Surging Sparks dust pool, which fills as you open Surging Sparks 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 ex 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.
