The collector's take on Ethan's Ho-Oh ex
Is Ethan's Ho-Oh ex worth grading?
So is Ethan's Ho-Oh ex worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy sits at $2, a Grade 9 gets you to $4, and a PSA 10 jumps up to $27, which works out to about 15.4 times the raw price. That sounds like a great multiplier on paper, and it is, but remember grading fees and shipping eat into that gap fast, and with a card at this price point, you need to be doing it for the love of a clean population report more than for profit. Out of the copies graded so far, a solid chunk have landed PSA 10, so gem mint isn't some impossible dream here, but it's also not guaranteed. If you've got a copy that looks sharp under a light, corners crisp, no whitening, it's worth considering. If it's borderline, the math just doesn't favor sending it in.
How rare is Ethan's Ho-Oh ex?
Population-wise, there are 3,959 graded copies of Ethan's Ho-Oh ex on record, and 2,295 of those are sitting at PSA 10. That's a pretty high proportion of top grades relative to the total, which tells you this card grades well when submitted, and it helps explain why the PSA 10 price isn't sky high despite being the top tier. Scarcity here isn't about a card being impossible to find in high grade, it's more that the overall population is a known, fixed number, and once you understand where PSA 10 sits within it, the pricing starts to make a lot more sense.
Where can you pull Ethan's Ho-Oh ex?
This is where PackSpy's own data comes in handy, since we track real pulls across pack sites rather than relying on price guides alone. We've recorded Ethan's Ho-Oh ex pulled 151 times across tilt-rips, collector-crypt, courtyard, and lastpack, with the biggest recorded pull value hitting $415. It's shown up in packs like the Pokemon Dollar Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Basic Pack, and noobie, so it's not a card you'd call rare to pull, but it's also not guaranteed in any one box. Worth saying plainly: pack opening is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to that $415 number, so treat it as entertainment first and a possible bonus second.
