Question 1

Is Rayquaza worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Here's where it gets interesting. A raw Rayquaza is $187, but a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $23,500, which works out to 125.9 times the raw price. That gap is enormous, and it's the kind of number that makes people want to send every copy they own straight to a grading company. Slow down for a second though. Grade 9 copies sit at $2,863, a big step down from gem mint, which tells you how unforgiving the jump to a 10 really is. Grading costs money and time regardless of what comes back, and a card with any whitening, a soft corner, or printing haze can land you a 9 instead of a 10, which is a very different payday. So is Rayquaza worth grading? If you genuinely believe the copy in your hand is pack fresh and centered well, the upside is real. If there's any doubt, it might be smarter to enjoy it raw or sell it as is rather than gamble on perfection.

Question 2

How rare is Rayquaza?

Accepted Answer

Across every grading company's submissions combined, there are 1,728 total graded copies of this Rayquaza on record, and of those, only 112 have earned the elusive PSA 10. That's roughly 6 percent of graded copies hitting gem mint, which is a tight number for a card this iconic. It explains a lot about why the price climbs so steeply the closer you get to perfection: there just aren't many flawless copies floating around, and demand for a Rayquaza print this clean isn't shrinking anytime soon.

Question 3

Where can you pull Rayquaza?

Accepted Answer

This is where PackSpy's own data earns its keep, because we don't just quote price guides, we track real pulls happening on pack sites right now. Rayquaza has been pulled 200 or more times across collector-crypt, courtyard, packz, packs, and mnstr, which tells you it's genuinely in circulation rather than a card people only ever buy secondhand. The biggest recorded pull we've logged came in at $7,000, a reminder of just how good a day it can be when the right copy lands in your hands. You'll find it showing up in packs like the Starter Pokemon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Basic Pack, Legendary Pokemon Gacha Pack, Pokemon Starter Pack, and Celestial Pokemon Gacha Pack. Worth saying plainly though: opening packs is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to covering what you spent. Treat any pull as a bonus, not a plan.

Question 4

How much is Rayquaza worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Rayquaza #16 from Holon Phantoms is valued at $187. Once you move into graded territory, that number climbs fast, with a Grade 9 sitting at $2,863 and a PSA 10 reaching $23,500.

Question 5

Is Rayquaza worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth 125.9 times the raw price of $187. But only 112 out of 1,728 graded copies have hit that gem mint grade, so it's a real gamble, and grading fees apply no matter what grade comes back.

Question 6

How much is a PSA 10 Rayquaza worth?

Accepted Answer

A PSA 10 Rayquaza #16 is valued at $23,500. Only 112 copies have ever achieved that grade out of 1,728 total graded, which is a big part of why the price sits so far above the raw card.
