One Piece does something Pokémon does not, and it makes this whole subject easier. The rarity code is printed on the card. You do not need a chart or a community spreadsheet to know what you pulled; it is stamped next to the card number.
The rarity ladder, as printed
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| C | Common. The bulk of every pack. |
| UC | Uncommon. |
| R | Rare. |
| SR | Super Rare. The first tier people actually want. |
| SEC | Secret Rare. The top of the standard ladder. |
| L | Leader. A separate slot, not a rarity tier as such. |
| SP / Manga / Parallel | Alternate art treatments, which is where the money usually is. |
The odds are still not published
Visible rarity is not the same as published odds. Bandai does not release per-card pull rates any more than The Pokémon Company does, so every One Piece pull rate you find is a collector counting case openings, with all the small-sample problems that brings.

Two patterns worth noticing. The alternate art and manga treatments dominate the top, well ahead of the base versions of the same characters. And the gap between raw and PSA 10 is often narrower than on Pokémon, which changes the grading maths: fewer One Piece cards clear the bar where grading pays.
What we measure on One Piece
The pack sites rip One Piece as well as Pokémon, and we record all of it. Thousands of One Piece pulls a day go through our recording, with what each pack cost and what came out, which lets us publish a measured payback figure for it alongside every other category.
It has consistently been one of the better-paying categories we track. Whether that holds is the sort of thing you should check rather than take on trust, which is why our numbers are generated live rather than typed into an article once.

Questions people also ask
What is the rarest One Piece card rarity?
SEC, Secret Rare, sits at the top of the printed ladder, but the alternate art and manga treatments usually carry more value than the base SEC of the same card.
How many packs are in a One Piece booster box?
24 packs, fewer than a Pokemon booster box, which is worth remembering when comparing box prices between the two games.
Are One Piece pull rates published?
No. Bandai prints the rarity on the card but does not release per-card odds, so the rates you find are collector counts.
The short version
One Piece prints its rarity on the card, so the ladder is readable: C, UC, R, SR, SEC, with alternate arts sitting above them in value. The odds behind that ladder are unpublished, so judge the game on what the cards are worth, which is the table above.
