The collector's take on Friends in Sinnoh
Is Friends in Sinnoh worth grading?
So is Friends in Sinnoh worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy is $9, a Grade 9 jumps to $3,957, and a PSA 10 sits at $9,910, which works out to roughly 1062.2 times the raw price. That's a massive spread, and it's exactly why people get tempted to send copies off to grading companies. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit, corners, edges and centering all have to line up, and grading costs money and time whether or not the card comes back a 10. If you've got a copy that looks clean under a light and you're patient enough to wait out the grading process, it can pay off. If it's got soft corners or a hint of whitening, it's usually smarter to hold onto it raw or sell as is rather than gamble on the grade.
How rare is Friends in Sinnoh?
Across all grading companies, there are 14,630 total graded copies of Friends in Sinnoh on record, and 10,349 of those are PSA 10. That's actually a pretty high share landing in gem mint, which tells you the card was printed with decent surface quality to begin with, but it also means the PSA 10 population isn't razor thin. Scarcity here isn't about a card nobody can find, it's about the fact that most of the value is concentrated at the very top grade, so if you're chasing the big number, you're chasing that specific 10.
Where can you pull Friends in Sinnoh?
We've tracked 18 recorded pulls of Friends in Sinnoh across pack sites, specifically on gachapull and lastpack, with the biggest recorded pull value hitting $22. It's also shown up in packs listed under noobie. That's real, live data pulled from actual openings, not a price guide estimate, and it's worth remembering that most pack openings don't pay off like that, this is one of the better recorded results rather than the norm. If you're hunting this card specifically, keep an eye on those sites, but plenty of collectors just buy it outright on the secondary market once they see what it's actually worth graded.
Questions people ask

Is Friends in Sinnoh worth grading?+
