Giacomo is one of the fan-favorite special illustration rares from Paldea Evolved, the 2023 set that gave us that gorgeous, moody artwork from Kiyotaka Oshiyama. Collectors love it because it captures a character card in a style that feels more like a poster than a game piece, and that's exactly why people keep searching Giacomo value long after the set left shelves. Right now a raw copy sits at $5, which tells you this is a card people chase for the art and the nostalgia as much as the payout.

The collector's take on Giacomo

Is Giacomo worth grading?

Here's the honest math: a raw Giacomo runs about $5, a Grade 9 brings that up to $13, and a PSA 10 sits at $62, which works out to roughly 11.6 times the raw price. That jump looks tempting on paper, but grading fees, shipping, and the wait time all eat into the return, and hitting true gem mint isn't guaranteed even on a card that looks perfect to the naked eye. If you already own a sharp copy and mostly want it protected and displayed, grading can make sense. If you're buying raw copies specifically to send in hoping for a PSA 10 payday, just go in knowing the centering and edges on special illustration rares can be unforgiving, and plenty of submissions come back as a Grade 9 instead.

How rare is Giacomo?

As a special illustration rare, Giacomo sits in one of the harder pull tiers within Paldea Evolved, the kind of card that shows up far less often than your standard holo or rare in a booster box. We don't have official population figures to point to here, so it's worth being general: cards in this rarity class are printed in much smaller numbers than the commons and uncommons around them, which is part of why the raw price holds steady even without huge grading premiums. Scarcity in the pack is one thing, though. Scarcity in gem mint condition, where a PSA 10 pulls that $62 price, is a different story entirely, since even a limited print run produces plenty of copies with the small flaws that keep them out of the top grade.

Where can you pull Giacomo?

This is where PackSpy's tracking actually earns its keep, because we've recorded Giacomo pulled 200 or more times across real pack-opening sites, specifically tilt-rips and courtyard. It's shown up in the Pokemon Dollar Pack, the Wildcard Basic Pack, the Pokemon Dime Pack, and the Pokémon Basic Pack, so if you're chasing this one, those are the products where our data says it's actually surfacing. The biggest recorded pull value we've logged for Giacomo sits at $14, a useful reminder that opening packs is still a gamble and most rips don't come close to covering what you paid, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than a plan.

Questions people ask

How much is Giacomo worth?+

A raw, ungraded Giacomo from Paldea Evolved is currently valued around $5. Graded copies are worth more, with a Grade 9 sitting at $13, so condition and grading status make a real difference to what you can expect to get for it.

Is Giacomo worth grading?+

It depends on your goals. A PSA 10 is worth $62, which is about 11.6 times the raw price, but grading fees and the chance of landing a Grade 9 instead of a perfect 10 mean it's not a sure profit, so it's smarter for collectors who want a protected copy than for pure flippers.

How much is a PSA 10 Giacomo worth?+

A PSA 10 gem mint Giacomo is valued at $62, compared to $13 for a Grade 9 and $5 for a raw copy. That gap shows just how much condition matters once a special illustration rare like this gets graded.
