Question 1

Is Groudon worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is Groudon worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy sits around $5, a Grade 9 jumps to $26, and a true gem mint PSA 10 climbs all the way to $56, which works out to 11.2 times the raw price. That's a real multiplier, no argument there. But gem mint is gem mint for a reason, corners, centering and surface all have to line up perfectly, and plenty of copies that look great to the eye come back as a 9 instead of a 10. Factor in grading fees and turnaround time before you send one in, and treat it as a bet on quality, not a guaranteed payday. If you've got a copy that looks sharp under a loupe, it might be worth the shot. If it's got soft corners or a scuff, the raw price alone tells you it's probably better loved as is.

Question 2

How rare is Groudon?

Accepted Answer

We don't have exact population figures for this one yet, which itself says something, high grade copies of niche Japanese sets like the 25th Anniversary Collection just don't flood the market the way mainstream English releases do. Combine a Rare Holo print status with a limited regional release and you get a card that's scarce by nature rather than by hype. That scarcity is exactly why the gap between raw and PSA 10 pricing is so wide, when true gem copies are hard to come by, the ones that exist carry real weight.

Question 3

Where can you pull Groudon?

Accepted Answer

Here's the part most price guides can't tell you: PackSpy tracks actual pack pulls across live pack-opening sites, and so far, Groudon Reverse Holo hasn't shown up in a single recorded pull. That's not us being lazy with the data, it genuinely reflects how tucked away this card is. If you're chasing it, don't count on ripping packs and hoping, your realistic path is the secondary market, buying a known copy from a seller rather than gambling on a box. And speaking of gambling, it's worth saying plainly: opening packs is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to breaking even. Groudon just happens to be one of those cards that's easier to buy than to pull.

Question 4

How much is Groudon worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Groudon Reverse Holo #6 is valued around $5 right now. Once you get into graded copies, a Grade 9 sits at $26, and a PSA 10 gem mint copy reaches $56. So the price really depends on condition and whether it's been graded.

Question 5

Is Groudon worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, if your copy is sharp. A PSA 10 is worth 11.2 times the raw price, which is a meaningful jump, but gem mint is a high bar and grading isn't free. Weigh the condition honestly before you send it in, since a copy that lands at Grade 9 instead of 10 still holds value at $26, just not the same leap.

Question 6

Why is the Groudon Reverse Holo #6 print worth more than the standard one?

Accepted Answer

Reverse holo prints use a different foiling process that makes the card's background shine instead of the artwork, and collectors tend to chase that alternate look, especially from a set as specific as the 25th Anniversary Collection. Combined with its Rare Holo status and Ryo Ueda's artwork, it naturally draws more attention and demand than a plain standard print of the same character.
