Related Big Parasol & chase cards
Tap to open
Big Parasol is one of those Secret Rare cards from Darkness Ablaze that quietly turns heads once people learn what it actually is, a 2020 release with artwork from Toyste Beach that gives it a bit of extra shine on shelves and in binders. If you're trying to pin down Big Parasol value, the short version is that this is a card worth more in a graded slab than loose in a binder page, and the gap between those two worlds is bigger than you might expect. It's not a headline chase card, but it's the kind of pull that makes you stop and check what it's worth.

The collector's take on Big Parasol
Is Big Parasol worth grading?
So is Big Parasol worth grading? The raw price sits at $2, and a PSA 10 comes in at $519, which works out to roughly 208.4 times what the ungraded card sells for. That's a real jump, and it's the kind of number that gets people reaching for a grading submission the moment they pull a clean copy. But here's the honest part: hitting a PSA 10, true gem mint, is genuinely hard, and grading fees, shipping and the wait all add up whether your card comes back a 10 or a 9. A Grade 9 still lands at $201, which is solid, but nowhere near PSA 10 money. If your copy has sharp corners, clean edges and no surface wear under good light, grading can make sense. If it's borderline, you might be paying to find out it's only worth what it already was.
How rare is Big Parasol?
Right now there are 1,070 graded copies of Big Parasol on record, and 650 of those are PSA 10s. That's actually a fairly high proportion sitting at the top grade, which tells you this card grades well when submitted, but it also means gem mint copies aren't as rare within the graded population as you'd assume from the price gap. The scarcity that matters most here is really about condition at the raw level, since so few people bother grading a $2 card in the first place, which keeps the population smaller than higher value chase cards from the same set.
Where can you pull Big Parasol?
PackSpy has tracked 3 recorded pulls of Big Parasol across pack opening sites, all from courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull valued at $31. It's shown up in Pokémon Starter Pack breaks, which fits, since Darkness Ablaze secret rares like this tend to surface in mixed or starter style products rather than heavy hitter boxes. If you're hunting for one, the honest answer is that it's rarely pulled and most collectors end up finding their copy on the secondary market rather than ripping packs specifically for it. That's worth remembering before you spend real money chasing a $2 to $519 card through packs, since most opens don't pay for themselves.
Questions people ask
How much is Big Parasol worth?+
A raw, ungraded Big Parasol is valued at $2. Once graded, the number changes fast, a Grade 9 sits at $201 and a PSA 10 reaches $519, so condition and certification make a huge difference to what this card is actually worth.
Is Big Parasol worth grading?+
It depends on your copy's condition. A PSA 10 is worth about 208.4 times the raw price, which is tempting, but PSA 10s are genuinely tough to hit and grading costs money regardless of outcome, so it's worth grading mainly if your card looks clean under close inspection.
How much is a PSA 10 Big Parasol worth?+
A PSA 10 Big Parasol is valued at $519, a big step up from the $201 Grade 9 and a massive jump from the $2 raw price. With 650 PSA 10 copies recorded out of 1,070 total graded, gem mint versions make up a large slice of the graded population.
