Estimate: 36 packs × per-pack pull rates (Sword & Shield / older era), each tier valued at its average live FoilMarket EUR price for Sword & Shield. The Pokémon Company doesn't publish official odds — these are large-sample estimates from TCGplayer's pull-rate data (≈5,000–8,500 packs/set) and corroborating box breaks, so real odds vary set to set and any specific chase card can be far rarer than its tier average. A long-run average, not a guarantee for one box; sealed products can also appreciate on their own. Estimate only, not investment advice.
