Dark Dragonite Holo #5 Value
Team Rocket · Card 5/83 · Rare · 2000
Dark Dragonite Holo #5 comes from the Team Rocket set, released back in 2000, and it's one of those cards that still turns heads thanks to Mitsuhiro Arita's artwork and the whole Dark Pokemon theme that made Team Rocket such a fun departure from the base sets. If you're searching for a Dark Dragonite value check, the short answer is that a raw copy runs $119, while a pristine PSA 10 can fetch $7,600. That kind of spread is exactly why collectors keep coming back to this card.

Dark Dragonite — collector's take
Is Dark Dragonite worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here's the honest breakdown. A raw Dark Dragonite sits at $119, a Grade 9 climbs to $383, and a true PSA 10 gem mint copy jumps all the way to $7,600, which works out to 63.9 times the raw price. That's a serious multiplier, but it only pays off if your card actually grades gem mint, and holo cards from this era are notorious for centering issues and surface print lines that keep them out of that top tier. Grading costs money and takes time, and there's no guarantee your copy comes back a 10 rather than a 9, so before you send one in, look closely under good light and be realistic about the corners and centering. If it looks clean to your eye, the upside is real, but treat it as a calculated bet, not a sure thing.
How rare is it?
Right now there are 10,564 graded copies of Dark Dragonite on record, and only 81 of those have earned a PSA 10. That's a tiny slice at the very top, and it tells you just how demanding gem mint condition is for a card this old. When population numbers like that hold steady, it's usually the PSA 10 tier that keeps pulling away in price, simply because so few copies exist that survived two decades without a flaw.
Where to pull it
PackSpy has tracked 66 recorded pulls of Dark Dragonite across collector-crypt, mnstr, tilt-rips, and courtyard, so this isn't a card that's impossible to find in a live pack opening, it does show up. It's turned up in packs like the Starter Pokemon Gacha Pack, Pack 1, Pokemon Expert Pack, Legendary Pokemon Gacha Pack, and Pokemon Diamond Pack, and the biggest recorded pull we've seen hit $4,575. That said, pulling a high value card like this is still the exception rather than the rule, and opening packs in general is a gamble where most rips don't cover their cost, so go in knowing that and enjoy the process rather than chasing the number.

It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth 63.9 times the raw price, but gem mint copies are rare, with only 81 out of 10,564 graded copies hitting that top grade. Grading is worth it if your card is genuinely clean, but it's a gamble on centering and surface quality, not a guaranteed payout.
What set is Dark Dragonite from?
Dark Dragonite Holo #5 is from the Team Rocket set, released in 2000, and it's a Rare card illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita. It's one of the more memorable pulls from that era thanks to the Dark Pokemon concept Team Rocket introduced.
