👇 Find the featured cards in each pack
Explore the cards that can land in the hit slot, grouped by rarity with pull-rate context and live prices. Use the full set view to see every other card.
A Darkness Ablaze pack puts a hit in slot 1 and slot 10, and about 1 in 5 packs holds one of the 4 rarities below. 46 of the set's 201 cards can fill them. The best of them is Charizard VMAX #20 at $38.96 — a card you would open once in 166 packs. Nobody has published a pull-rate study of Darkness Ablaze, so these rates are estimated from measured sets of the same era — good to about a tier, not to a decimal.
Rates marked EST. are estimated: no pull-rate study of Darkness Ablaze has been published, so the figure is the rate this rarity measured at across sets of the same era. Good to about a tier, not to a decimal. Measured rates come from TCGplayer’s Authentication Center pack openings.
Published by Pokémon for the Sword & Shield era. Slot 1 is a hit slot too — most guides miss this. States which rarities each slot may hold, not how often. The figures are for the digital Pokémon TCG Live pack and are believed, not confirmed, to mirror the physical one.
Numbered above the set’s main run — the rainbow foils, the golds and the alternate arts. Pokémon files all of them under one label, so the market can price two cards in this tier hundreds of times apart.
"Specific card" splits the tier's rate evenly across its 12 cards. Real spread within one tier runs to ±30%.

Secret Rares: about 1 in 48 packs. Ultra Rares: about 1 in 26 packs. Holo Rare VMAX Cards: about 1 in 24 packs. Holo Rare V Cards: about 1 in 8 packs. These rates are estimated from measured sets of the same era; no pull-rate study of this set has been published.
46 of the 201 cards in Darkness Ablaze are at a rarity a booster pack's hit slot can produce — Ultra Rare and above. The rest come out of the common, uncommon, reverse-holo and standard rare slots.
The rarest tier is Secret Rares in Darkness Ablaze, at about 1 in 48 packs for any one of its 12 cards. A NAMED card from that tier is about 1 in 575 packs, assuming the tier's cards appear equally often.
