Question 1

Is Chikorita worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is it worth grading this one? Raw, an ungraded Chikorita sits around $4, and a Grade 9 only nudges that up to $5, which honestly won't cover what most grading services charge. The real jump happens if you land a PSA 10: that gem mint copy is worth $112, which works out to about 26.4 times the raw price. That's a real gap, but landing a true PSA 10 is genuinely hard, this is a common card from 2007 and most copies picked up years of shelf wear, print lines, or corner softness that keeps them out of gem mint territory. If you already own a copy that looks flawless under a loupe, it might be worth the gamble. If you're buying raw copies specifically to grade and flip, go in with your eyes open about the odds and the grading fees.

Question 2

How rare is Chikorita?

Accepted Answer

Here's where it gets interesting. Across all grading companies combined, only 47 copies of this Chikorita have ever been graded, and of those, just 1 has earned a PSA 10. That's a tiny population for a card that wasn't considered special when it was printed. It tells you that while plenty of these cards exist in binders and bulk boxes ungraded, very few people have bothered sending them in, and even fewer have come back perfect. That kind of scarcity at the gem mint level is exactly why the PSA 10 price sits so far above the raw and Grade 9 numbers.

Question 3

Where can you pull Chikorita?

Accepted Answer

We've tracked 122 recorded pulls of this Chikorita across tilt-rips, courtyard, collector-crypt, and general pack breaks, so it does show up if you're opening enough product. The biggest pull value we've logged for it sits at $129, which is a nice surprise for a common card. It's turned up in mixes like the Pokemon Dime Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, and Radiant Pack. Worth remembering though, opening packs is a gamble and most rips don't come close to what you paid, so treat any Chikorita pull as a nice bonus rather than the plan.

Question 4

How much is Chikorita worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Chikorita Reverse Holo #77 from Mysterious Treasures is worth about $4. Grade it and get a 9 and you're looking at $5, but a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $112 thanks to how few gem mint copies exist.

Question 5

Is Chikorita worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the copy. The PSA 10 price of $112 is about 26.4 times the raw value, which sounds tempting, but with only 1 PSA 10 out of 47 total graded copies, hitting that grade is far from guaranteed. If your card looks genuinely gem mint, it could be worth a shot, otherwise the Grade 9 payout barely covers grading costs.

Question 6

Why is the Chikorita Reverse Holo #77 print worth more than the standard one?

Accepted Answer

The reverse holo shine on this Mysterious Treasures print gives it a little extra visual appeal and a slightly different collector demand compared to the plain print. It's still a common card, but that reverse holo texture and the tiny population of graded copies, especially at PSA 10, are what push its value above a basic non-holo Chikorita.
