Question 1

Is Blaziken worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Here's where it gets interesting. That same card graded a PSA 10 jumps to $2,324, which works out to about 465.7 times what the raw copy is worth. That's a real gap, and it's the kind of number that makes people want to send every copy they own off to grading. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit, centering, edge wear and surface flaws all get picked apart under a loupe, and grading isn't free or instant. A Grade 9 lands at $256, still a nice lift from raw, but nowhere near the PSA 10 payout. So is it worth grading? If you've already got a copy that looks sharp in hand, corners clean, centering tight, it's worth a shot. If it's rough, save your money and enjoy the card as is.

Question 2

How rare is Blaziken?

Accepted Answer

Across all grading companies combined, only 2,639 copies of this Blaziken have ever been graded, and of those, 2,328 are sitting at PSA 10. That's a striking ratio, it means the vast majority of graded copies that exist are already gem mint, which keeps the PSA 10 price from ballooning even higher since supply at the top isn't as thin as you'd expect. It also tells you something about the card itself, it seems to print and preserve well, so hitting a 10 isn't the lottery ticket it is on some other Team Rocket era cards.

Question 3

Where can you pull Blaziken?

Accepted Answer

This one doesn't show up often. PackSpy has tracked Blaziken being pulled 3 times across the pack sites we monitor, all from collector-crypt, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $28 out of a Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack. That's a small sample, and it lines up with what the raw price already tells you, this isn't a card people are ripping packs specifically to find. Most collectors who want a Blaziken from this set end up buying it directly on the secondary market rather than gambling on a pull, and honestly, that's the more reliable path here. Opening packs can be fun, but it's a gamble where most rips don't pay off, and this card is a good example of why we track real pull data instead of just quoting price guides.

Question 4

How much is Blaziken worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Blaziken from Glory of Team Rocket #101 is worth $5. Graded copies climb fast, with a Grade 9 worth $256 and a PSA 10 worth $2,324, so condition and certification make a huge difference to the final Blaziken price.

Question 5

Is Blaziken worth grading?

Accepted Answer

If your copy is clean, centered and free of noticeable wear, grading can pay off since a PSA 10 sells for 465.7 times the raw value. But gem mint isn't guaranteed, and grading fees eat into anything less than a perfect result, so weigh the card's actual condition honestly before sending it in.

Question 6

What set is Blaziken from?

Accepted Answer
