Houndoom Ex #103 is a Promo release from 2023, one of the ones with that clean PLANETA Tsuji artwork that makes fire and dark type fans stop scrolling. It's not a chase card that dominates headlines, but for anyone weighing Houndoom Ex value against what's sitting in their binder, the honest answer is that it's a modest, steady piece: a card that's genuinely collectible without being a financial gamble. Right now it sits at $3 raw, which tells you exactly the kind of card this is: fun to own, not something you're retiring on.

The collector's take on Houndoom Ex
Is Houndoom Ex worth grading?
Here's the real math on grading Houndoom Ex: raw copies sit at $3, and a Grade 9 brings that up to $23, which is a solid jump for a card that started out this affordable. PSA 10 pricing isn't established yet, which usually means gem mint copies aren't showing up in enough volume for a market to form around them. Grading costs money and takes time, and there's no guarantee your copy comes back gem mint, so before you send this one in, ask yourself if you're doing it because you love the card or because you're chasing a number. For a $3 card, the safer play for most collectors is just enjoying it raw unless you've got a genuinely pristine copy and you're doing a batch submission anyway.
How rare is Houndoom Ex?
As a Promo release, Houndoom Ex already sits in a different category than main set pulls, promos tend to have smaller, less predictable print runs, and that shapes everything about how it trades. We don't have population data to point to yet, and that absence is itself telling: it suggests graded copies haven't flooded PSA's vault the way they have for more mainstream cards. That kind of quiet scarcity doesn't always mean high value, but it does mean patience matters if you're hunting a specific grade, and it means the market for this card is still finding its feet.
Where can you pull Houndoom Ex?
This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, we track real pulls across pack opening sites, not guesses, and Houndoom Ex hasn't shown up in our recorded pulls yet. That's a meaningful signal on its own: it tells you this card isn't the kind of promo that's regularly stuffed into today's opening product. If you're set on owning one, the secondary market is realistically your best bet right now rather than ripping packs and hoping. And if you do go the pack route anyway, go in knowing most opens don't pay for themselves, that's just the nature of the gamble, so chase it because you want the card, not because you're expecting a payout.
Questions people ask
How much is Houndoom Ex worth?+
A raw, ungraded Houndoom Ex #103 currently sits around $3. Once graded, a Grade 9 copy brings that up to $23, and PSA 10 values haven't been established yet since gem mint copies are still scarce in the market.
Is Houndoom Ex worth grading?+
It depends on your goals. The jump from $3 raw to $23 at Grade 9 is decent, but grading fees and the risk of a lower grade coming back mean it's worth doing mainly if your copy is already in excellent shape or you're submitting a batch of cards together.
What set is Houndoom Ex from?+
Houndoom Ex #103 comes from the Promo set, released in 2023, featuring artwork by PLANETA Tsuji. As a promo card, it follows a different print pattern than mainline sets, which shapes its rarity and how often it shows up in the wild.
