The odds

Shiftry ex is a Holo / V / ex in Crystal Guardians — the pack's hit slot lands on Holo / V / ex 33% of the time, split across 23 holo / v / ex cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 70 packs.

Holo / V / ex33%23 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)12.2%70 of 575
PSA 931.1%179 of 575
PSA graded so far575
Gem Mint 1070
Total graded575

Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.

⚖️ Risk-adjusted return

Best case isn't the whole story. Weighting every grade by how often it actually happens, across 575 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1012.2%$1,553.00
PSA 931.1%$247.00
PSA ≤856.7%$46.00

Net = graded value − raw value − grading cost (tier fee + ~$20 round-trip shipping), using PSA fees as of 2026-06-28; the paused PSA Value tier is excluded so this isn't overstated. Gem rate is estimated from cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies — so it overstates the true grade rate. Treat it as a guide, not a guarantee.

Population across gradersPSA, CGC & BGS — every grade, with gem rates

Only 12% of 575 PSA-graded Shiftry ex copies are a gem-mint 10 (70 of 575) — the rest grade lower.

For context: a graded PSA 7 slab of this card sells for about $100 (cert-verified) — a heavily-played raw copy shouldn't cost much more than that.
