Pidgey — collector's take
Is Pidgey worth grading?
So is Pidgey worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy sits at $15, a Grade 9 nudges up to $28, and a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $217, which works out to about 14.5x the raw price. That's a real gap, and it's tempting. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on illustration rares like this one, where any small print line or edge wear can knock you down a grade. Add in the grading fee, the shipping, and the waiting, and you're taking on real risk for a card that isn't guaranteed to come back a 10. If you already own a sharp-looking copy and you're patient, it can be worth the gamble. If you're buying raw specifically to grade and flip, go in with your eyes open about the odds.
How rare is it?
Right now there are 6,189 graded copies of Pidgey on record, and of those, 1,563 have earned the PSA 10 label. That means roughly one in four graded copies makes it to gem mint, which isn't razor thin, but it's far from a guarantee either. A population like this tells you Pidgey has been graded plenty, so it's not a hidden gem nobody's noticed, it's a card with a real, active collector base watching those numbers and that keeps the PSA 10 price meaningfully higher than the raw and Grade 9 tiers.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's data actually earns its keep, because we don't just guess at pull rates, we track them. Pidgey has been pulled 179 times across the pack sites we monitor, including courtyard, tilt-rips, and collector-crypt, and it's turned up in a mix of products like the Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokemon Mini Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack. The biggest single pull we've recorded came in at $644, which shows how a lucky grade or a hot moment in the market can turn a $15 card into something far more exciting. That said, opening packs chasing a specific card is still a gamble, most rips don't cover their cost, and Pidgey is a nice reminder that value can hide in unexpected places, but it shouldn't be the plan you bet your budget on.
Questions people ask
How much is Pidgey worth?
A raw, ungraded Pidgey #207 is valued at $15. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $28 and a PSA 10 reaching $217, so the price really depends on condition and whether it's been graded.
Is Pidgey worth grading?
It can be, since a PSA 10 sits at 14.5x the raw price of $15. Just know that gem mint is tough to land, and the cost and time of grading is a real factor, so it's worth grading if your copy already looks clean, not as a guaranteed flip.
What set is Pidgey from?
Pidgey #207 comes from the Obsidian Flames set, released in 2023. It's an illustration rare illustrated by Jerky, which is part of why collectors seek it out beyond just its raw price.
