Question 1

Is Absol worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Right now we don't have solid market figures for the raw/ungraded price, the Grade 9, or the PSA 10 on this particular card, so it's tough to give you a clean multiplier the way we can for some other cards. What we can tell you honestly: grading only pays off when the jump from raw to PSA 10 is big enough to cover the grading fee, the shipping, and the wait, and gem mint is never guaranteed even on a card that looks perfect to your eye. If you're weighing whether Absol is worth grading, it's worth checking current sold listings for both raw and graded copies yourself before you send anything off, since without those baseline numbers here, a guess isn't good enough to risk your card on.

Question 2

How rare is Absol?

Accepted Answer

We don't have published population figures for Absol at either Grade 9 or PSA 10, which isn't unusual for a Korean set card that doesn't get submitted for grading nearly as often as mainstream English releases. That absence of data is itself a clue: lower submission volume generally means fewer graded copies floating around, and fewer graded copies can mean a real premium for anyone holding a clean, high grade example once demand catches up. For now, think of Absol as sitting in that quieter tier of the hobby, scarce by circumstance rather than by a printed short-run number we can point to.

Question 3

Where can you pull Absol?

Accepted Answer

This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than just repeating price guide numbers. Absol has been pulled 73 times in our records, showing up across tilt-rips, courtyard, collector-crypt, lastpack, and mnstr, and it's turned up in packs like the Pokemon Dime Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Basic Pack, and Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack. That's a genuinely healthy spread, meaning if you're chasing this card by ripping packs rather than buying it outright, you've got real, recorded odds across more than one site, though it's worth remembering that opening packs is still gambling and most rips don't beat what you paid in.

Question 4

How much is Absol worth?

Accepted Answer

We don't have a confirmed raw or PSA 10 market price for Absol #191 from VSTAR Universe just yet, so treat any number you see elsewhere with some caution. What we do know from real pack pulls is that PackSpy recorded one hit worth $474, which gives you a sense of what the card can do when the right buyer is watching.

Question 5

Is Absol worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Without solid raw and PSA 10 pricing on hand for this card, it's genuinely hard to say either way, and that's the honest answer. Check recent sold listings for both raw and graded copies before you spend on grading fees, since gem mint isn't guaranteed and the cost only makes sense if the price gap is real.

Question 6

What set is Absol from?

Accepted Answer

Absol #191 comes from the Korean VSTAR Universe set, a release that's especially popular with collectors who like chasing cards outside the usual English print runs. It's shown up in a handful of different online packs, including the Pokemon Dime Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, and the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, according to PackSpy's pull tracking.
