Should you grade it?

The odds

Flareon VMAX is a Holo / V / ex in Evolving Skies — the pack's hit slot lands on Holo / V / ex 27.9% of the time, split across 53 holo / v / ex cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 190 packs.

Holo / V / ex27.9%53 cards
PSA 10 (gem mint)65.2%1,499 of 2,298
PSA 925.5%585 of 2,298
PSA graded so far2,298
Gem Mint 101,499
Total graded2,298

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 2,298 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 1065.2%$74.00
PSA 925.5%$27.00
PSA ≤89.3%$10.00

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
