Bulbasaur has always been the card that got people into this hobby in the first place, and the #133 illustration rare from the 2025 Mega Evolution set gives that soft spot a fresh coat of paint courtesy of artist mashu. It's not a chase card in the eye-watering sense, but if you're looking up Bulbasaur value because one just landed in your binder, you're in the right place. This is exactly the kind of card that quietly holds steady appeal: recognizable, well illustrated, and genuinely fun to own.

The collector's take on Bulbasaur
Is Bulbasaur worth grading?
Here's the honest math on Bulbasaur price across grades: raw sits at $19, a Grade 9 brings that up to $35, and a PSA 10 lands at $130, which works out to about 6.7 times the raw price. That's a real jump, and it's tempting to send every copy off to get slabbed. But grading costs money and takes time, and there's no guarantee your copy comes back gem mint, a stray whitened corner or a slightly off-center print can knock it down a grade before you even open the box. If your copy looks clean under a loupe and you don't mind the wait, grading can pay off here. If it's a casual pull with a soft corner, it's probably happier staying raw.
How rare is Bulbasaur?
Across all grading submissions, 17,198 copies of this Bulbasaur have been graded, and of those, 10,322 came back as PSA 10. That's a big chunk of the graded population sitting at the top grade, which tells you this print run behaves well under a loupe, most copies that go in for grading are coming out gem mint. It also explains why the PSA 10 premium, while real, isn't astronomical: when gem mint isn't rare within the graded pool, the price reflects that balance rather than blowing up.
Where can you pull Bulbasaur?
This is where PackSpy's own data earns its keep, since no price guide tracks actual pack rips the way we do. We've recorded Bulbasaur pulled 200 or more times across courtyard, collector-crypt, tilt-rips, mnstr, and packs, with one lucky rip logged at $811. It's shown up in a handful of different products too, including the Wildcard Basic Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokemon Starter Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, and Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack. Worth remembering that opening packs is a gamble no matter how good the odds look on paper, most rips don't come close to that $811 outlier, but the data shows this Bulbasaur is genuinely out there to be pulled, not just bought after the fact.
Questions people ask
How much is Bulbasaur worth?+
Right now a raw, ungraded copy of Bulbasaur #133 is valued at $19. Grade it and the number moves depending on the result: a Grade 9 sits at $35, while a PSA 10 reaches $130. So how much Bulbasaur is worth really depends on its condition and whether it's been graded.
Is Bulbasaur worth grading?+
It can be. A PSA 10 is worth 6.7 times the raw price, which is a solid jump, and with 10,322 of the 17,198 graded copies already coming back PSA 10, the odds of gem mint aren't bad if your card is clean. Just factor in grading fees and turnaround time before you decide.
