Tap to open
Lucario is the shiny rare from 2024's Paldean Fates set, card #174, brought to life by illustrator Shin Nagasawa in that shimmering shiny-vault style the set is known for. It's the kind of pull that makes people stop scrolling their binder and actually smile, and if you're checking Lucario value right now, you're clearly not alone. Right now it sits at a raw/ungraded price of $30, which puts it firmly in the 'nice pull, not a retirement plan' category, but there's real upside if you send it off for grading.

The collector's take on Lucario
Is Lucario worth grading?
Here's the honest math on Lucario price after grading: a raw copy sits at $30, a Grade 9 comes back at that same $30, and only a PSA 10 gem mint copy jumps to $250, which is 8.3x the raw value. That gap tells you everything. Grading only pays off if you land a true 10, and shiny rares like this one often have sharp holo patterns and clean borders that make gem mint tougher to hit than people expect. Factor in grading fees, turnaround time, and the very real chance your card comes back a 9 worth the same as it started, and grading becomes a calculated bet rather than a sure thing. If your copy is centered well and free of whitening or scratches under a light, it's worth a shot. If it's rough, save your money and enjoy it raw.
How rare is Lucario?
As a shiny rare, Lucario sits in one of Paldean Fates' more sought-after tiers, the kind of card that isn't a guaranteed pull from every box but shows up often enough to keep the set exciting. We don't have official population figures to lean on here, so take grading talk with that in mind, but the shiny rare tier itself tends to carry a natural scarcity built into how these sets are structured. That's part of why the PSA 10 price sits so far above raw and Grade 9, gem mint copies of shiny rares simply don't flood the market the way base rarities do.
Where can you pull Lucario?
This is where PackSpy's own tracking earns its keep, because we don't just quote a price guide, we watch real pack openings happen across sites like courtyard, collector-crypt, and tilt-rips. Lucario has been pulled 200 or more times across those platforms, which tells us it's genuinely in circulation and not some myth people chase. The biggest recorded pull we've logged came in at $101, and if you're hunting for it yourself, it's turned up in packs like the Pokémon Starter Pack, The Amazing Chase Encore, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokemon Premium Pack, and Novice Pack. Worth saying plainly: opening packs for a specific card is still a gamble, and most rips don't cover their cost, so chase Lucario because you like the process, not because the math promises a win.
Questions people ask
How much is Lucario worth?+
A raw or ungraded Lucario #174 from Paldean Fates is valued at $30. That number reflects its status as a shiny rare from a well-loved 2024 set, and it's the baseline most sellers and buyers work from before grading changes the picture.
Is Lucario worth grading?+
It depends on the copy in your hand. A Grade 9 comes back at the same $30 as raw, so there's no upside there, but a PSA 10 jumps to $250, which is 8.3x the raw price. If your card looks gem mint sharp, grading can make sense, but it's a real financial risk if it comes back anything less than a 10.
How much is a PSA 10 Lucario worth?+
A PSA 10 gem mint Lucario is valued at $250, which is 8.3 times higher than the raw/ungraded price of $30. That premium is exactly why some collectors take the gamble on grading, even knowing gem mint condition isn't easy to land.
