Tap to open
Piplup #25 comes from the Japanese EX Battle Boost set, and it's the kind of card that shows up in a lot of searches simply because that little penguin face is so beloved. This Piplup value page exists because collectors keep asking what a copy is actually worth these days, not what it sold for two years ago. Right now a raw copy sits at $6, which tells you this is more of a fun pull than a big investment, but there's still real money in the graded versions if you know where to look.

The collector's take on Piplup
Is Piplup worth grading?
Here's the honest math: a raw Piplup is $6, a Grade 9 jumps to $35, and a PSA 10 sits at $58, which works out to about 9.6x the raw price. That's a meaningful multiplier, but it only matters if the card actually grades gem mint, and Piplup, like a lot of cards from this era, can have centering or edge issues that keep it out of that top grade. Grading fees and shipping add up fast, so before you send one in, take a hard look at the corners and the print under good light. If it looks clean to your eye, the upside is there, but if you're on the fence, it might be worth holding and waiting for a copy that looks obviously gem mint rather than gambling grading fees on a maybe.
How rare is Piplup?
We don't have official population numbers to point to here, but Piplup sits in that familiar tier of Japanese set cards where plenty were printed and pulled, keeping the raw price approachable rather than scarce. That's actually good news if you just want to own one for your collection, since $6 gets you in the door without much hunting. The real scarcity shows up at the top end: gem mint copies that survive shipping, handling, and grading without a flaw are always the minority, which is why the PSA 10 price sits so far above raw even without a tiny population number to point to.
Where can you pull Piplup?
This is where PackSpy's own data earns its keep, because we've tracked Piplup pulled 200 or more times across collector-crypt, courtyard, packs, and tilt-rips, so this isn't a card that's hiding from openers. It's shown up in the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Basic Pack, Water Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Wildcard Pro Pack, giving you real options if you want to chase one yourself. The biggest pull we've recorded for this card hit $150, which is a solid reminder that pack odds can occasionally hand you a copy worth way more than the going rate, though most rips won't get anywhere close to that and opening packs should always be treated as entertainment first, profit second.
Questions people ask
How much is Piplup worth?+
A raw, ungraded Piplup #25 from EX Battle Boost is currently valued at $6. Graded copies are worth more, with a Grade 9 sitting at $35 and a PSA 10 reaching $58.
Is Piplup worth grading?+
It depends on the copy. The jump from $6 raw to $58 for a PSA 10 is about 9.6x, which is attractive, but only if the card actually earns that gem mint grade, since grading fees eat into a Grade 9 or lower result fast.
How much is a PSA 10 Piplup worth?+
A PSA 10 Piplup #25 is valued at $58, which is 9.6 times the raw card's $6 price. That gap reflects how much collectors pay for a confirmed gem mint copy over an ungraded one.
