Reading Dragonite ex's stat block

N Dragon HP 180 Retreat cost 2

Dragonite ex is a Double Rare Stage 2 card from the Eevee Grove set with 180 HP. Every STAT on this page comes straight from the card record; the expected pack count further down is a statistical estimate recomputed from the pull table, not a promise.

Its attacks:

  • Giga Impact — 180 damage · cost Water + Lightning + Colorless — During your next turn, this Pokémon can't attack.

Read the energy costs together, not just the damage. A card with two attacks usually trades a cheap, weak opener for a pricier attack that does the real work, and the question that decides whether it belongs in a deck is whether you can actually pay for the big one on curve.

Which pack actually drops it

Eevee · 1.38%

Rare cards are not spread evenly across a set. Each one is locked to specific packs, and opening the wrong pack from the right set means this card never shows up no matter how many you buy. Dragonite ex drops from Eevee. Odds are set per slot, not per card — and the slot layout differs from one pack type to another, so never carry one pack's formula over to another. The Eevee pack gives 5 cards per opening — slot 1 is always Common · slot 2 is always Common · slot 3 is always Common · slot 4: 89.00% is Uncommon · slot 5: 56.00% is Uncommon. For Dragonite ex that works out to 0.28% in slot 4 · 1.11% in slot 5, which is 1.38% for any single pack, or about 72 packs before you can expect to see one.

Three ways to own it

Which pack does this card drop from? Buy it with Pack Points Trade for it

Pulling is only the first path, and it is the one that can betray you: 1.38% per pack means the expected 72 packs is an average, not a promise. The second path removes luck entirely. Every pack you open awards 5 Pack Points (an official in-game mechanic, not part of the drop-rate table) regardless of what comes out of it, and those points accumulate until you can redeem this exact card outright. Dragonite ex costs 500 PP — no pulls, no gambling, just the count. The third path is trading, which spends Shinedust rather than Pack Points, and whether it is open to you depends entirely on the card's rarity. For Dragonite ex: It can be traded for 5,000 Shinedust.

Evolution line and other printings

Dragonite ex does not evolve from or into anything — it stands alone. Some Pokémon are also printed more than once — across different sets or promo drops, with different art, different rarity, and sometimes different attacks under the same name. Where other printings of this card exist, they are linked on this page, because the stats can differ even when the name matches.

Where this card stands on the ladder

C

Dragonite ex is a core card in 1 of the 50 meta decks currently tracked (tier C), most notably Dragonite ex Walking Wake. Worth chasing: it holds collection value and it changes games, so if you play to climb, this is the card to spend Pack Points on first. The meta deck table is recomputed from tournament data (play rate plus win/loss/tie record), not from anyone's opinion. A card missing from that table can still be beautiful and still be expensive to trade for, but it will not win games on its own — those are two different questions and this page answers them separately.

Frequently asked questions

 Which pack should I open to get Dragonite ex?

Dragonite ex drops from Eevee. Opening a different pack from the same set will not produce it, because pack variants inside one set carry completely different rare-card pools.

 Roughly how many packs does it take to pull Dragonite ex?

About 72 packs on average. That comes from the per-slot pull table rather than a single blended number: 0.28% in slot 4 · 1.11% in slot 5, which is 1.38% for any one pack. It is an expected value — a statistical estimate, not a guarantee: half of all players will need more.

 Can I trade for Dragonite ex instead of pulling it?

It can be traded for 5,000 Shinedust. Trading uses Shinedust, and whether a card is tradeable at all is fixed by its rarity tier — Immersive Rare and Crown Rare cards can never be traded under any circumstance, so for those two tiers Pack Points or a direct pull are the only ways in.
