Pinsir
What it takes to get
One-diamond cards fill the three guaranteed slots at the front of every pack, so you will see this one very quickly and it has no chase rate of its own.
The cards worth the packs in Mega Rising are the ex, full art and crown pulls — those are the ones with a chase rate, and the ones an account is bought for.
