Should you grade it?

$52

Raw $79.95 → graded PSA 9$98.64, after ~$70.98 grading fee → 1.2× the raw value.

The odds

Volcanion is a Commoncard — a guaranteed slot in every pack, not a rarity gamble, so there's no pull-odds figure for it.

PSA 10 (gem mint)16%4 of 25
PSA 912%3 of 25
PSA graded so far25
Gem Mint 104
Total graded25

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.

Target gradeEst. valueGrading feeNet vs rawMultiple
PSA 9$98.64$71$521.2×

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. Real outcome depends on the grade achieved; PSA 10 is best-case.

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

Only 16% of 25 PSA-graded Volcanion copies are a gem-mint 10 (4 of 25) — the rest grade lower.
