The collector's take on Blastoise
Is Blastoise worth grading?
So is Blastoise worth grading? Here is the honest math: a raw, ungraded copy runs $68, a Grade 9 sits at $678, and a PSA 10 gem mint copy is valued at $5,711, which works out to about 84.0x the raw price. That is a real jump, and it is exactly why so many collectors send cards off to get graded. But gem mint is called gem mint for a reason, hitting a flawless 10 is not guaranteed, and grading fees plus shipping and turnaround time eat into any potential gain if the card comes back as a 9 or lower. If you already own a sharp looking copy and you are patient, grading can pay off. If you are buying raw specifically to gamble on a 10, treat it like the gamble it is.
How rare is Blastoise?
As a double rare, Blastoise already sits above the everyday pulls in Expansion Pack, and double rares in Japanese sets tend to print in smaller numbers than your standard commons and uncommons. We do not have a hard population count to share here, but the price gap between raw, Grade 9, and PSA 10 tells its own story: the further up the grading scale you go, the fewer copies exist in that condition, and the more people are willing to pay for one. That climb from $68 to $5,711 is scarcity showing up in real dollars.
Where can you pull Blastoise?
This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than just guessing at value. Blastoise has been pulled 200 or more times across mnstr, collector-crypt, packs, tilt-rips, courtyard, and lastpack, which tells us it circulates fairly often for a double rare. The biggest recorded pull came in at $7,100, a nice reminder of what a well timed rip can turn into. If you are hunting for it yourself, keep an eye on Pack 2, the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Water Pack, Celebrations Pack, and Pokemon Mini Pack, all of which have produced this card. Just remember that opening packs is gambling by nature, most rips do not come close to covering what you spent, so chase Blastoise because you love the card, and let any profit be a bonus.
Questions people ask
How much is Blastoise worth?+
A raw, ungraded Blastoise from the Japanese Expansion Pack set is valued at $68. Once graded, that number rises fast, a Grade 9 sits at $678, and a PSA 10 gem mint copy is worth $5,711.
Is Blastoise worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth 84.0x the raw price. That said, gem mint copies are genuinely hard to pull off, and grading costs money and time, so it is worth grading if your copy already looks clean, but risky if you are just hoping for the best.
What set is Blastoise from?+
This Blastoise, card number 9, comes from the Japanese Expansion Pack set released in 2023. It is a double rare illustrated by PLANETA Yamashita.
