Tap to open
Krokorok is one of those quietly likable cards from the Japanese Black Bolt set, released back in 2011, and it still catches the eye of collectors flipping through Uncommon cards from that era. This particular version, Krokorok Master Ball #61, comes from the illustration work of Kagemaru Himeno, and it has that understated charm that makes older Pokemon cards fun to track down. If you are here to figure out Krokorok value, the short version is that it sits at a modest but real price point, and the story gets more interesting once you look at grading.

The collector's take on Krokorok
Is Krokorok worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here is the honest answer: a raw, ungraded Krokorok sits at $5, while a PSA 10 gem mint copy jumps up to $52, which works out to about 9.6 times the raw price. That is a real jump, no question, but it comes with a catch. Grading companies charge fees per card, plus shipping and turnaround time, and there is no guarantee your copy comes back gem mint. A Grade 9 only pulls in $8, which barely covers the cost of grading once you factor everything in. If you already own a raw copy that looks sharp under a light, with clean edges and solid centering, sending it in could pay off. But if you are buying raw copies specifically to gamble on a PSA 10, know that most attempts do not land that high, and you could end up spending more than you get back.
How rare is Krokorok?
Only 68 total copies of Krokorok have been graded so far, and out of those, 56 are sitting at PSA 10. That is a striking ratio. It tells you that the copies people bothered to grade were largely strong to begin with, or that Krokorok is simply a card that holds up well under grading scrutiny. Either way, the population is small across the board, and the PSA 10 tier makes up the bulk of it, which keeps that top grade from carrying a huge premium relative to the raw card, even though it is still nearly ten times the value.
Where can you pull Krokorok?
Here is where PackSpy's tracking actually helps you more than a typical price guide. We record real pack pulls across tracked sites, and so far Krokorok has not shown up in any of them. That does not mean it does not exist out there, but it does mean this is not a card you should expect to casually pull from a pack. Practically speaking, if you want a Krokorok for your collection, your best bet right now is the secondary market rather than hoping for a rip. Opening packs is always a gamble, and most openings do not cover their cost, so keep that in mind if you are chasing this one through boxes rather than buying it directly.
Questions people ask
How much is Krokorok worth?+
A raw, ungraded Krokorok from the Black Bolt set is valued at $5. That is the baseline most collectors will pay or expect when trading a copy that has not been professionally graded.
Is Krokorok worth grading?+
It can be, but go in with clear eyes. A PSA 10 is worth $52 compared to $5 raw, a solid 9.6x jump, but a Grade 9 only fetches $8, which may not cover grading costs. Only send it in if the card genuinely looks gem mint quality already.
How much is a PSA 10 Krokorok worth?+
A PSA 10 Krokorok is worth $52. With only 56 PSA 10 copies existing out of 68 total graded, that top grade represents most of the graded population, but it still carries a meaningful premium over the raw card.
