In order to get more in Pokémon TCG Pocket in addition to the daily free boosters, you basically have 2 options. The first is to collect packing sand clocks and exchange them for packs. The amount you can preserve every day is quite manageable.

80 packs with hourglasses, 80 packs with gold
How did the player test? The player opened 80 packs with hourglasses and gold. You can see which cards he pulled in detail in his video on YouTube. In addition to many cards with low rarity, there were also some strong sweats that were hidden in the boosters.
Since operating several accounts in the game violates the guidelines, he opened the gold packs on his own account and took an account of a viewer for the hourglass packs that offered him for it.
What cards were drawn? Both in the hourglass packs and in the gold packs, the player could even get one of the rare and popular immersive cards with 3 stars.
Overall, the distribution of the pulls looked as follows:
While the result of the ♢♢♢ and ☆ucce cards is very balanced, more ☆ cards could be drawn in the gold packs. With the remaining rarity levels, the free hourglass packs are clearly in front.
What should be considered in the experiment? It is important that opening 80 packs each is too low a data basis for a meaningful statistics.
Even if the player had a certain tendency for better pulls on the hourglass packs, only large amounts of data with significantly more open packs can be used for a final and meaningful conclusion.
