Deerling — collector's take
Is Deerling worth grading?
So is Deerling worth grading? Let's talk it through honestly. A PSA 10 brings 7.2 times what the raw card sells for, jumping from $41 to $294, and a Grade 9 lands at $51. That's a real gap, and it's tempting. But gem mint isn't a given, Illustration Rares like this one often have delicate borders and full-art edges that show every little whitening or scratch under a grader's light, so even a card that looks perfect to your eye can come back a 9 instead of a 10. Add in the grading fee and the wait time, and you're taking on real risk for a real reward. If your copy is genuinely clean, corners sharp, centering solid, it's worth a shot. If it's got soft edges or surface wear, you're often better off enjoying it raw or selling it as is.
How rare is it?
Right now there are 4,313 total graded copies of Deerling on record, and only 1,477 of those made it all the way to PSA 10. That means well under half of every graded copy hits gem mint, which tells you this card is genuinely tough to get through grading without some kind of flaw. That gap between total population and PSA 10 population is a big part of why the top grade commands such a premium over raw. Scarcity at the very top end is what keeps that $294 figure meaningful rather than just a number on a chart.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's own data comes in, because we track actual pulls across real pack sites, not just guesswork. Deerling has been pulled 107 times across tilt-rips, courtyard, mnstr, and collector-crypt, and the biggest recorded pull came in at $277. It's shown up in a range of products too, Pokemon Starter Pack, Pokemon Expert Pack, Pokemon Premium Pack, Wildcard Starter Pack, and Pokémon Pro Pack, so it's not locked to one single box. That said, opening packs is still a gamble, most rips don't come close to covering their cost, and Deerling is very much a nice surprise rather than a sure thing. If you'd rather skip the odds entirely, buying a known raw or graded copy on the secondary market is the more predictable route.
