Question 1

Is Reshiram worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Here's the honest math: a raw Reshiram runs about $3, a Grade 9 climbs to $16, and a PSA 10 sits at $98, which works out to roughly 34.5 times the raw price. That jump is real, but so is the difficulty of actually landing a gem mint copy. Shining Fates cards often have centering or surface issues from the printing run, and grading fees plus shipping and turnaround time eat into any profit if your copy comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If you already own a copy that looks sharp under a light, sending it in can make sense, but don't grade a stack hoping for the best, that's how people lose money on a card that was only ever worth a few dollars raw.

Question 2

How rare is Reshiram?

Accepted Answer

We don't have a hard population count to point to here, but the pricing spread tells its own story: a $3 raw card turning into a $98 PSA 10 means gem mint copies are meaningfully harder to find than the raw supply suggests. Shining Fates wasn't a tiny print run set, so Reshiram isn't scarce in the sense of being hard to find raw. The scarcity that matters is at the top, the flawless corners and perfect centering needed for that PSA 10 label, and that's where the real value lives.

Question 3

Where can you pull Reshiram?

Accepted Answer

PackSpy has tracked Reshiram getting pulled 99 times across sites we monitor, including collector-crypt, courtyard, tilt-rips, lastpack, and packs, and the biggest single pull we've logged came in at $10,883. It's shown up in packs like the Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Starter Pack, Pokemon Mini Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Pokemon Starter Pack. That's the kind of cross-site data a static price guide can't give you, we're watching real openings happen in real time. Worth remembering though: most pack opens don't hit anything close to that headline number, so treat ripping packs as entertainment first and a possible bonus second.

Question 4

How much is Reshiram worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Reshiram from Shining Fates is valued at $3. Get it graded and the number changes fast, a Grade 9 is worth $16 and a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $98.

Question 5

Is Reshiram worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, since a PSA 10 sits at roughly 34.5 times the raw price. But gem mint copies aren't easy to pull off, and grading costs money regardless of the result, so only send in copies that already look clean to your eye.

Question 6

Accepted Answer
