Mewtwo GX — collector's take

Is Mewtwo GX worth grading?

So is it worth sending Mewtwo GX GX in for grading? Here is the honest breakdown. A raw copy trades around $625, a Grade 9 jumps to $1,738, and a PSA 10 commands $9,203, which works out to roughly 14.7 times what the raw card sells for. That is a real jump, no question. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on this card, and grading takes time, money, and a bit of luck with centering and edges that most people underestimate until they get a copy back with a 8 or 9 instead of a 10. If your copy already looks sharp under a loupe, grading can make sense given that multiplier. If it has any soft corners or print lines, you might be better off enjoying it raw or selling it as is rather than gambling on a fee that does not guarantee gem mint.

How rare is it?

Right now there are 1,738 total graded copies of Mewtwo GX on record, and only 87 of those have earned a PSA 10. That is a small slice at the very top, which tells you gem mint copies are the exception here, not the rule. When a card's population stays this tight at the highest grade, it naturally supports the price gap you see between Grade 9 and PSA 10, since so few collectors ever get to hold a true gem mint copy in hand.

Where to pull it

This is where PackSpy earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites instead of just guessing at rarity. Mewtwo GX has been pulled 76 times across mnstr, collector-crypt, courtyard, and packs, with the biggest recorded pull landing at $9,280. It has shown up in a mix of products too, including Pack 2, the Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, the Grail Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pack 1, and the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack. So the card is out there and it does surface, but with numbers like this, most people chasing it are still better off treating a pull as a bonus rather than a plan. Opening packs is a gamble, and most rips do not come close to covering their cost, this one included.

Questions people ask

How much is Mewtwo GX worth?

A raw, ungraded Mewtwo GX #78 currently sits at $625. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 valued at $1,738 and a PSA 10 reaching $9,203, so condition makes a real difference to the price.

Is Mewtwo GX worth grading?

It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 14.7 times the raw price. Just know that gem mint is genuinely rare here, with only 87 PSA 10s out of 1,738 total graded copies, so grading is worth it mainly if your card is already in excellent shape.
