Is Ludicolo worth grading?

$61

Expected return across every likely grade, after fees — the realistic average, not the best case. Only 2.7% of copies gem (PSA 10 best case $4); most land at PSA 9 or below.

The odds

Ludicolo is a Rare in Platinum — the pack's hit slot lands on Rare 67% of the time, split across 26 rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 39 packs.

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 37 PSA-graded copies:

Likely outcomeChanceValue
PSA 102.7%$69.00
PSA 932.4%$27.00
PSA ≤864.9%$2.00

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 & TAG — every grade, with gem rates

“Sold” = median of real recent sold listings at that grade (eBay or Fanatics Collect — hover a badge to see which). “Modelled” = no verified graded sale behind the figure; it is derived from the raw price and reference guides, so treat it as a ceiling to check, not a price to quote.
