Best Double Crisis Cards to Grade

How to read the Double Crisis ranking

Every Double Crisis card listed here clears one bar: its PSA 10 price beats its raw price by more than the cost of grading it. 2 cards from the set pass. 2 of them (100%) have a gem-rate sample of at least ten graded copies in the population reports, and 2 of those keep a positive expected value once every grade outcome is weighted by how often the card actually receives it.

The order is expected profit, not the PSA 10 best case, which rewards the widest raw-to-gem gap whether the card gems one time in two or one in fifty. Here the top row, the Team Aqua's Kyogre-EX from Double Crisis, gems 0.2% of the time across 6,160 graded copies: +$1,392 is what a long run of submissions would average, $374,571 is what one lucky copy returns.

The median gem rate across the sampled Double Crisis cards is 0.3%. Fewer than one submitted copy in a hundred came back PSA 10, and most rows here still cover raw price plus fee at PSA 9, so the PSA 9 price does most of the work. Of the 2 ranked cards, 2 still cover raw price plus fee at PSA 9. 2 rest on a hundred or more graded copies.

Before you submit a Double Crisis card

Grading pays on condition. The four things every grader scores — centering, corners, edges and surface — can be checked at home before paying a fee, and a copy that is visibly off-centre or has a whitened corner will not gem whatever the population says. Those gem rates come from a self-selected population of clean copies, so a random copy does worse.

The cost column assumes a PSA submission at the tier covering the card's PSA 10 value, fees as of 2026-09-26, and raw is CardTrack's blended near-mint price, not a sale of your copy: pay more, or hold a lighter copy, and the break-even moves against you.
