Tap to open
Blastoise EX #234/XY-P is one of those Japanese promo cards that turns up in a lot of collections without a lot of collectors realizing just how it fits into the bigger Blastoise family. It comes from the XY-P promo run, and while it isn't a flashy secret rare, it's held a steady little niche of interest for anyone chasing early EX-era water types. If you're here looking up Blastoise EX value, the short answer is that it's an affordable card raw, but it climbs fast once you start talking grades.

The collector's take on Blastoise EX
Is Blastoise EX worth grading?
So is Blastoise EX worth grading? Here's the honest breakdown. Raw copies sit at $8, and a PSA 10 sells for $385, which works out to 48.2x the raw price. That's a real jump, and it's the kind of multiplier that gets people excited. But look at Grade 9 first: it only brings $69, which tells you the market really only pays a premium once you hit that top gem mint grade. Anything less and you're barely covering what grading costs in the first place. With 466 of the 589 total graded copies already sitting at PSA 10, it's clear this card grades well when it's centered and clean, but you still need a genuinely sharp copy going in. If your raw card has soft corners, print lines, or edge wear, grading is a gamble that can leave you worse off than just selling it raw.
How rare is Blastoise EX?
Population-wise, Blastoise EX isn't a card buried in obscurity, but it's not common either. There are 589 total graded copies on record, and a large share of those, 466, are PSA 10. That's a fairly high gem rate for a promo, which tells you this particular print run holds up well under a grader's eye. It also means the real scarcity isn't in finding a PSA 10 itself, but in finding a raw copy worth submitting that will actually reach that grade rather than landing in the 9 range or below.
Where can you pull Blastoise EX?
This is where PackSpy's tracking actually earns its keep, because we don't just quote a price guide, we record real pulls happening across pack sites. Blastoise EX has been pulled 89 times across collector-crypt, courtyard, and various pack platforms, with the biggest recorded pull hitting $900. We've seen it turn up in the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, the Legendary Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard 3: Inferno, the Pokémon Starter Pack, and the Grail Pokémon Gacha Pack. That spread tells you it's not locked to one exclusive product, it shows up across a mix of gacha style breaks and starter-tier openings. Worth saying plainly though: opening packs chasing any single card is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to covering what you spent. If you want this exact card reliably, buying it outright on the secondary market is usually the smarter move.
Questions people ask
How much is Blastoise EX worth?+
A raw, ungraded Blastoise EX #234/XY-P is valued at $8. Once graded, the value climbs depending on the grade, with Grade 9 copies worth $69 and PSA 10 copies worth $385. So the real Blastoise EX price really depends on condition and whether it's been graded.
Is Blastoise EX worth grading?+
It can be, if your copy is sharp. A PSA 10 sells for 48.2 times what the raw card is worth, which is a big jump, but Grade 9 only brings $69, so anything short of gem mint doesn't move the needle much. Weigh the grading cost against how confident you are in the card's condition before submitting.
How much is a PSA 10 Blastoise EX worth?+
A PSA 10 Blastoise EX is worth $385. That's 48.2 times the raw price of $8, and it reflects just how much a clean, gem mint grade matters for this card's value. Of the 589 total graded copies, 466 have reached that PSA 10 grade.
