Maybe I am just incredibly unlucky but I feel like the wonder picks is 100% rigged.

One would assume that with 5 cards to pick you have a 20% chance to get the card you want. Unless it has hidden mechanics where the rarer the card, the more unlikely it is you are to get it, which should be stated somewhere, I am under the assumption that it should be equal chance for any card shown especially since you already use more resources to choose the wonder pick options which have rarer cards.

I have probably done at least 50+ wonder picks over the past few weeks and literally only once have I gotten the card I chose the pick to try and get.

That's a less than 2% chance, not a 20% chance. In fact, It seems to specifically give you the worst card out of the lot the majority of the time. Like a pidgey or something.

Just venting, as it's legalized gambling targeted towards children through video games as well and I actually quite despise it despite it being one of the only ways to get specific cards at the moment.

Literally me RN

All the wonder pick offers is a way to target a specific card with better odds than raw pack opening. It says right on the pick screen every card is a ⅕ chance so I'm assuming it's fair and you have awful luck. Wonder pick has been pretty kind to me.

I generally pick the exact same spot everytime, feeling like it should reduce the potential for "bad luck", it's weird.
