eli5 probability in context of gacha games

Question

Hey everyone, i’m trying to understand probability.
If we say a character has a 1% pull chance. After 200 pulls is there any increased chance of getting said character.

If i work it out in terms of “chance of not having said character after 200 pulls” its a smaller chance the more pulls i work it out after. But the base chance per pull is still 1%

So how does probability actually work in this context.

Am i any more likely to recieve said character after x amount of pulls?

However it was programmed to work.

Depending on where you live, companies may be legally required to publicise the per-pull odds, in which case the chance is still 1%, but if you’re anywhere else the 1% may be an average across the entire userbase and individual users see increased or decreased odds depending on their spending patterns.
