How to open a Palworld booster pack (and what's inside)
A Palworld Official Card Game booster pack from Dawn of Palpagos (EBP01) holds 7 cards: four Commons, two Uncommons and one hit slot that always contains an R or better, including parallel rare treatments. Twelve packs (84 cards) make a booster box.

Palworld Official Card Game Dawn of Palpagos Pull Rates
In the Palworld TCG hit slot, R appears in roughly 60.8% of packs, RR 20%, SR 10%, SP 5%, OSR (Over Super Rare) 2.5%, SSP 1.2% and SSS (Ultra Secret Gold Card) around 0.5% — about 1 in 200 packs.

How Palworld cards are graded — and why perfect 10s are rare
Graders score a Palworld card on four sub-grades — centering, corners, edges and surface — then weight the weakest sub-grade most heavily for the overall number. Pal Stars uses the same maths on every pull, so a flawless Gem Mint 10 lands on roughly 1.2% of cards and most raw pulls settle at Mint 9 or Near Mint–Mint 8.

Best Palworld cards to chase when opening packs
The highest-value Palworld pulls are the SSS Ultra Secret Gold Card, the SSP parallels of Jormuntide Ignis and the other headline Pals, and the OSR (Over Super Rare) alternate arts — those three tiers carry almost all of a box's secondary-market value.
