Darkrai V — collector's take
Is Darkrai V worth grading?
So is Darkrai V worth grading? Let's talk numbers. A raw, ungraded copy sits at $3, a Grade 9 bumps that up to $10, and a PSA 10 gem mint copy commands $119, which works out to 46.1x what the raw card sells for. That's a real jump, no question, but here's the honest part: hitting a PSA 10 isn't guaranteed just because a card looks perfect to your eye. Grading costs money and takes time, and you're sending it off not knowing which grade you'll get back. If you've got a copy with sharp corners and clean centering, it can absolutely be worth the gamble, but go in knowing it's a gamble, not a sure thing.
How rare is it?
Across all grading submissions, 13,681 copies of Darkrai V have been graded to date, and of those, only 2,184 have come back as PSA 10. That's roughly one in six landing at the top grade, which tells you gem mint copies are out there but they're far from common. That population gap is exactly why the PSA 10 price sits so much higher than the raw card, scarcity at the top end is doing real work here.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's own data comes in handy, since we track real pulls across pack opening sites rather than just guessing. We've recorded Darkrai V pulled 7 times, all across courtyard, with the biggest recorded pull coming in at $35. It's shown up in the Pokémon Starter Pack, the Pokémon Pro Pack, and the Pokémon Basic Pack, so if you're opening packs hoping to land one, those are the products where it's actually surfaced. Worth remembering though, pulling packs is a gamble in itself, and most rips don't come close to covering what you paid, so chase it because you like the card, not as an investment plan.
