Reshiram ex — collector's take
Is Reshiram ex worth grading?
So is Reshiram ex worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy runs $485, a Grade 9 actually comes in a bit lower at $471, and a PSA 10 jumps to $1,298, which works out to about 2.7 times the raw price. That's a real gap, and it's tempting. But gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on a card like this, especially with the kind of full-bleed, edge-sensitive artwork Black White Rares tend to have. Grading costs money and time regardless of what comes back, and a Grade 9 barely moves the needle versus raw. If you've got a copy that looks flawless under a light and loupe, it might be worth the gamble. If there's any doubt, it may make more sense to enjoy it raw or sell as is.
How rare is it?
Across all grading services, there are 9,143 total graded copies of Reshiram ex on record, and of those, 5,415 have come back as PSA 10. That's actually a pretty healthy chunk landing at the top grade, which tells you the card isn't impossible to find in gem mint, but it also means the population of lower grades and raw copies still circulating is smaller by comparison. When most of the graded pool clusters at PSA 10, it puts real weight behind that $1,298 price tag since it reflects genuine demand for a grade that's attainable but not guaranteed.
Where to pull it
PackSpy has tracked Reshiram ex being pulled 105 times across sites like courtyard, collector-crypt, packs, lastpack, and tilt-rips, so this isn't just sitting on shelves, it's coming out of real packs people are opening right now. The biggest recorded pull hit $1,445, which shows just how much upside is possible when you land one fresh. We've seen it show up in the Pokémon Starter Pack, Legendary Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Pro Pack, Grail Pokémon Gacha Pack, and Catch 'em All - Journey Together. That said, opening packs is still a gamble and most rips don't beat what you paid, so treat any hit as a bonus rather than an expectation. This kind of cross-site pull data is exactly what we track here, and it's not something a typical price guide can show you.
