The collector's take on Gengar ex
Is Gengar ex worth grading?
So is it worth grading? That's really the question everyone lands on eventually. Right now the gap between a raw card and a PSA 10 is significant: raw sits at $49, a Grade 9 comes in at $82, and a true gem mint PSA 10 commands $389, which works out to about 7.9 times the raw price. That jump sounds tempting, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit. This card has a print run with plenty of centering quirks and edge wear potential, and grading fees plus shipping and turnaround time eat into any profit if your copy comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If you've got a copy that looks sharp under a light with no whitening on the edges, it might be worth the gamble. If it's got soft corners or an off-center print, save your grading fee and enjoy it raw.
How rare is Gengar ex?
Across all grading services, 11,099 copies of Gengar ex have been graded to date, and of those, 5,128 have earned the coveted PSA 10 label. That's actually a healthy chunk landing in gem mint territory, which tells you the card grades reasonably well when the print quality cooperates. Still, a population near 11,000 total means this isn't some ultra-scarce chase card, it's a well-loved Ultra Rare that a lot of collectors are actively pursuing and grading, which keeps demand steady even as supply grows.
Where can you pull Gengar ex?
This is where our data actually adds something a static price guide can't. PackSpy has tracked Gengar ex being pulled 87 times across sites like courtyard, collector-crypt, and various pack breaks, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $775. We've seen it show up in products like the Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokémon Master Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, the aptly named Gengar, I Choose You!, and Pokémon Platinum (Spicy). Worth remembering though, opening packs is a gamble no matter how good the odds look on paper, and most rips don't cover their cost. If you want Gengar ex specifically and don't want to leave it to chance, buying a known raw or graded copy on the secondary market is usually the more predictable route.
Questions people ask
How much is Gengar ex worth?+
A raw, ungraded Gengar ex is valued at $49 right now. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 sitting at $82 and a PSA 10 reaching $389, so condition makes a real difference in what it's worth.
Is Gengar ex worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 7.9 times the raw price. But gem mint copies aren't guaranteed, and with 5,128 PSA 10s out of 11,099 total graded, plenty of copies land at Grade 9 or lower, so weigh the grading cost against your card's actual condition first.
What set is Gengar ex from?+
Gengar ex #193 comes from Temporal Forces, released in 2024. It's an Ultra Rare illustrated by Satoshi Shirai, and it's become a genuine favorite among collectors chasing that set.
