Question 1

Is Corphish worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is Corphish worth grading? Here's the honest breakdown: a raw, ungraded copy sits at $1, a Grade 9 jumps to $37, and a PSA 10 sits at $202, which works out to about 273.1x the raw price. That kind of multiplier looks tempting on paper, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on a common from an older set like Dragon, where print lines, edge wear and centering issues creep in more than people expect. Grading fees add up fast, and if your copy comes back a 9 instead of a 10, you've covered your costs but you haven't made the jump that makes grading worth it. If you already own a raw copy that looks sharp under a light, sending it in can make sense. If you're buying specifically to grade, go in knowing it's a bit of a gamble, not a guarantee.

Question 2

How rare is Corphish?

Accepted Answer

Across all grading services, only 136 copies of Corphish have been graded, and of those, 58 have come back a PSA 10. That's actually a fairly high proportion of gem mints relative to the total population, which tells you two things: collectors haven't rushed to grade this common in huge numbers, and the copies that have gone in have graded well. It's not a scarce card in the way a rare holo might be, but the population size does help explain why the PSA 10 price sits meaningfully above the raw and Grade 9 tiers. Scarcity here is less about survival and more about demand simply not being high enough to push large numbers through grading in the first place.

Question 3

Where can you pull Corphish?

Accepted Answer

PackSpy has recorded Corphish pulled 10 times across lastpack, collector-crypt and courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull value coming in at $13. It's shown up in packs like noobie, the Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and the Wildcard Basic Pack, so if you're hoping to pull one yourself, those are the kinds of packs where it's actually surfaced in real openings, not just theory. That said, this is a common from a 2003 set, so most people end up finding one on the secondary market rather than ripping packs for it specifically. Worth remembering too: opening packs is a gamble in general, and most rips don't return what you paid, so treat any pull data as a guide to where it's appeared, not a promise of what you'll get.

Question 4

How much is Corphish worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Corphish #52 from the Dragon set is valued at $1. Graded copies are worth more, with a Grade 9 sitting at $37 and a PSA 10 reaching $202, so condition makes a real difference here.

Question 5

Is Corphish worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the copy. The PSA 10 price of $202 is about 273.1x the raw value, which sounds great, but gem mint is genuinely tough to land on an older common, and grading costs and turnaround time are real factors to weigh before sending one in.

Question 6

How much is a PSA 10 Corphish worth?

Accepted Answer

A PSA 10 Corphish is valued at $202. Out of the 136 total graded copies recorded, 58 have achieved that PSA 10 grade, so it's attainable but far from a sure thing.
