Lugia has always been one of those Pokemon that collectors get a little misty-eyed about, and this Reverse Holo version from Vivid Voltage, illustrated by NC Empire, is a lovely example of why. It came out in 2020 as a Holo Rare, and if you are trying to pin down Lugia's value today, the honest answer is that it sits at $2 raw, which makes it an easy, low-stakes card to enjoy without breaking the bank. That accessible price is part of the appeal, this is a card you can actually hold in your hand without a second mortgage.

The collector's take on Lugia
Is Lugia worth grading?
Here is where it gets interesting. A raw copy of Lugia sits around $2, but a PSA 10 has sold for $124, which works out to about 62.3 times the ungraded price. That is a big jump on paper, and it is easy to see why people get grading fever. But hitting a true gem mint 10 is not guaranteed, print lines, centering, and edge wear on Reverse Holos can be brutal, and grading fees plus shipping and turnaround time eat into any profit fast. A Grade 9 lands at $187, interestingly higher than the PSA 10 figure here, which is a good reminder that grading outcomes and market pricing can be unpredictable and don't always move in a straight line. If you already own a sharp-looking copy and grading fees make sense against these numbers, it can be worth the gamble. If you are buying raw copies specifically to grade, go in with eyes open.
How rare is Lugia?
Across all grading companies, only 539 copies of this Lugia have been graded, and of those, just 143 have earned a PSA 10. That is roughly a quarter of graded copies hitting gem mint, which is a decent rate but still means three out of four graded copies fall short. With a population this size, Lugia is not the rarest card in Vivid Voltage by any stretch, but it is far from common in top condition, and that scarcity at the high end is exactly why PSA 10 copies command the price they do.
Where can you pull Lugia?
We track real pack openings across sites like collector-crypt, and Lugia has shown up 3 times in our recorded pulls, with the biggest hit valued at $81. It has turned up in Starter Pokemon Gacha Pack and Elite Pokemon Gacha Pack openings, so it is out there, but it is not a card you should expect to pull on demand. Most people who want this one end up buying it outright on the secondary market rather than chasing it through packs, and that is worth knowing before you drop money hoping for a hit. Opening packs is fun, but it is gambling, and most rips do not pay for themselves, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than a plan.

Is Lugia worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth about 62.3 times the raw price. But only 143 of the 539 graded copies have hit that top grade, so there is real risk involved, and grading costs should factor into your decision before sending one in.
