Raikou Reverse Holo #48 value & price

Tap to open
Raikou has always had that quiet electric-storm presence, and this Reverse Holo #48 from the Mega Evolution set, released in 2025, catches it nicely with artwork from Takumi Wada. It's a Rare pull rather than a chase-level hit, which is exactly why it shows up in so many pack rips, and it's a card people search for constantly when they're trying to figure out Raikou value on a card they just pulled or picked up. Raw copies sit around $1, so this isn't a card that will bankrupt your collection either way.

The collector's take on Raikou
Is Raikou worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy sits at about $1, a Grade 9 lands at $10, and a PSA 10 jumps all the way up to $32, which works out to roughly 64.6 times the raw price. That's a real multiplier, no question, but gem mint 10s are genuinely hard to hit consistently, reverse holos show every whitening and edge ding under grading lights, and submission fees plus turnaround time eat into any profit fast. If you've got a copy that looks flawless under a light and you're not in a rush, grading can make sense. If it's a decent-but-not-perfect card, you're often better off just enjoying it raw or reselling ungraded.
How rare is Raikou?
We don't have official population figures to lean on here, but the story of scarcity with a card like this is really told by its rarity tier: it's a Rare, not an Ultra Rare or Secret Rare, so it was printed in higher numbers than the chase cards in Mega Evolution. That's part of why raw copies stay affordable at $1, while a true gem mint PSA 10 still commands $32 simply because so few copies survive packs, shipping, and handling without a scratch or soft corner. Scarcity at the top end of the grading scale is really about survival rate, not print rarity.
Where can you pull Raikou?
This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep: we've tracked Raikou Reverse Holo #48 pulled 200 or more times across real pack-opening sites, including tilt-rips, collector-crypt, courtyard, and lastpack. It's turned up in a spread of pack types too, from the Pokemon Mini Pack and Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack to the Pokémon Pro Pack, Pokemon Starter Pack, and Pokemon Premium Pack, so there's no single site or pack you need to chase. The biggest recorded pull value tied to this card hit $1,847, which is a good reminder that even a common-feeling Rare can occasionally land in a wildly valuable slot depending on what else is in the pack. Worth saying plainly though: opening packs is gambling, and most rips don't come close to that number.
Questions people ask
How much is Raikou worth?+
A raw or ungraded copy of this Raikou Reverse Holo #48 is valued around $1. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 sitting near $10 and a PSA 10 gem mint copy reaching $32.
Is Raikou worth grading?+
It depends on the copy. The jump from raw to PSA 10 is about 64.6 times the value, which sounds great, but hitting a true gem mint 10 is tough and grading fees plus shipping can wipe out the gain if your card grades a 9 or lower.
What set is Raikou from?+
This card is from the Mega Evolution set, released in 2025. It's a Rare, illustrated by Takumi Wada, and appears as a reverse holo numbered 48 in the set.
