Infernape #173 is one of those illustration rares that stops people mid-scroll, that fiery little monkey rendered by Krgc with real motion and heat in the artwork. It comes out of the Twilight Masquerade set from 2024, and it's become a genuine favorite for collectors who want a Charizard-tier Fire type without the Charizard-tier price tag. If you're trying to pin down Infernape value right now, the short answer is that a raw copy sits at $13, but where it can go from there is the interesting part.

The collector's take on Infernape
Is Infernape worth grading?
Grading is where people either fall in love with this card or learn a lesson the hard way. A raw Infernape is $13, a Grade 9 moves that to $26, and a PSA 10 sits at $150, which works out to about 11.2 times the raw price. That jump looks tempting on paper, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on illustration rares like this one, where edge wear and centering show up fast under a loupe. Factor in grading fees, turnaround time, and the real chance you land a 9 instead of a 10, and grading only makes sense if the copy in your hand already looks clean to your eye before it ever leaves the house.
How rare is Infernape?
Across every copy submitted for grading, 8,028 Infernapes have come back with a grade attached, and of those only 3,617 earned a PSA 10. That's under half landing in gem mint, which tells you this card isn't a pushover when it comes to condition, even for something that wasn't printed as an ultra rare. It's not scarce in the sense of being hard to find raw copies of, but a true PSA 10 is a smaller club than the overall population makes it sound, and that gap is a big part of why the graded price climbs the way it does.
Where can you pull Infernape?
PackSpy has tracked this one getting pulled 200 or more times across courtyard, tilt-rips, and collector-crypt, which puts it firmly in the realm of a real, findable pull rather than a rumor. It's turned up in Pokemon Starter Pack, Pokemon Mini Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Pokemon Premium Pack listings, with the biggest recorded pull on our tracker landing at $130. That's the kind of number that's fun to chase, but it's worth saying plainly, most packs don't return what you paid for them, and this data is here to show you the real spread, not to sell you on the dream.
Questions people ask
How much is Infernape worth?+
A raw or ungraded Infernape #173 is valued at $13. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $26 and a PSA 10 gem mint copy reaching $150.
Is Infernape worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 11.2 times the raw price. But only 3,617 of the 8,028 graded copies have hit that PSA 10 mark, so it's not a sure thing, and grading fees eat into the upside if you land a lower grade.
What set is Infernape from?+
Infernape #173 comes from the Twilight Masquerade set, released in 2024. It's an illustration rare, illustrated by Krgc, which is part of why the artwork gets so much attention.
