Related Carbink & chase cards
Tap to open
Carbink is the illustration rare from Ascended Heroes, the 2026 set that gave us this quiet, crystalline little gem courtesy of artist sui. It's not a card that screams for attention, and that's part of its charm. Right now a raw copy sits at $6, which puts Carbink in that approachable range where you can actually enjoy the art without stressing over the price tag, but it's still a card people search out to check its value before they buy or sell.

The collector's take on Carbink
Is Carbink worth grading?
Here's the honest math on grading Carbink: a raw copy runs $6, a Grade 9 sits at $21, and a PSA 10 commands $85, which works out to 15.0x the raw price. That's a real jump, and it's tempting. But gem mint is called gem mint for a reason: centering, edges, and surface all have to line up, and plenty of copies come back as 9s instead of 10s, which is why that $21 number exists in the first place. Add in grading fees and turnaround time, and you're making a bet, not a sure thing. If you've got a copy that looks flawless under a loupe, it's worth the shot. If it's got a soft corner or slight print line, you might just be paying to find out what you already suspected.
How rare is Carbink?
Across every grading submission on record, only 168 copies of Carbink have been graded, and of those, 132 came back as PSA 10. That's a striking ratio: it suggests that when people do send this card in, it tends to grade well, which is good news if you're holding a clean copy but also means the truly graded population isn't enormous either way. Scarcity like this keeps the PSA 10 price meaningfully separated from the raw market, and it's part of why the value gap holds up.
Where can you pull Carbink?
PackSpy has tracked 63 recorded pulls of Carbink across courtyard, packs, collector-crypt, and lastpack, so this isn't a card living purely in theory. It's turned up in products like Pokémon Pro Pack, Catch 'em All - Heroes Ascended, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, rookie, and trainer, and the biggest single pull we've logged came in at $683. That kind of number is the exception, not the rule, and it's worth remembering that opening packs is a gamble where most rips don't come close to breaking even. Our pull data is the part no static price guide can offer: real, cross-site tracking of where and how often a card like Carbink actually shows up in the wild.
Questions people ask
How much is Carbink worth?+
A raw, ungraded Carbink is valued at $6 right now. Send it off and grade a 9 and it climbs to $21, while a PSA 10 sits at $85, so condition makes a real difference here.
Is Carbink worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth 15.0x the raw price. But gem mint copies are genuinely hard to hit, and grading costs money and time regardless of the result, so it's worth weighing your copy's condition honestly before you submit.
What set is Carbink from?+
Carbink is the illustration rare numbered 242 from Ascended Heroes, released in 2026 with artwork by sui.
