How often it shows up in packs

TCGplayer Authentication Center opened 3,500+ packs of Perfect Order and found a Special Illustration Rare in 1.23% of them, give or take 0.36% at 95% confidence (published April 3, 2026).

The English set has 6 Special Illustration Rares, so one named card is 1.23% ÷ 6 = 0.21% a pack, about 1 in 488 packs; across the interval, 1 in 377 to 1 in 690. That split treats every Special Illustration Rare as equally likely, which is an assumption, not a count. TCGplayer's own figure for one specific Special Illustration Rare is 1 in 487.

For an even chance of pulling this card you need 338 packs, and 1,123 for a 90% chance.

Single or packs?

At the Elite Trainer Box MSRP of $49.99 for 9 packs ($5.55 a pack; the US price reported by Celadon Info, read October 12, 2026), the 488 packs you would expect to open before the first Meowth ex 121/088 cost about $2,709: 31 times the single's $86.73 on October 12, 2026. Across the interval the bill runs from $2,096 to $3,831.

Luck runs both ways. One box's 9 packs give a 1.8% chance of at least one copy (1.3% to 2.4% across the interval), and half of all openers will have pulled it within 338 packs, about $1,877 at MSRP. The other half are still opening at that point.

Our take

Meowth ex is the dearest Special Illustration Rare in Perfect Order at $86.73 on October 12, 2026, and together with the Mega Hyper Rare Mega Zygarde ex it makes up 40% of the $467.53 one-of-each total. Six Special Illustration Rares share a 1.23% rate, so one named card is about 1 in 488 packs and opening for it at Elite Trainer Box MSRP costs about $2,709, 31 times the single. A whole 9-pack box gives about a 1.8% chance. If you are building the set, plan this card as a purchase from the start; packs will not get you there on any sensible budget.

Questions this page leaves open

Which other Meowth ex cards are in Perfect Order?

Perfect Order has 2 Meowth ex cards besides this one: Meowth ex 062/088 (Double Rare, $2.06) and Meowth ex 107/088 (Ultra Rare, $10.85), at TCGplayer market prices of October 12, 2026. The price and odds on this page are for 121/088 only.

Is $86.73 the price of a graded Meowth ex?

No. It is TCGplayer's market price for a Near Mint copy, the condition of a raw card, not a PSA, CGC or Beckett grade. Whether grading pays at that price is what the grading calculator works out.
