The collector's take on Rocket's Raikou EX
Is Rocket's Raikou EX worth grading?
Here's the honest math: a raw Rocket's Raikou EX runs $257, a Grade 9 jumps to $527, and a PSA 10 sits at $8,999, which works out to 35.0x the raw price. That's a real jump, but gem mint 10s are genuinely hard to hit on this card, so before you send one off, think about grading fees, turnaround time, and the very real chance it comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If your copy has sharp corners and clean edges under a light, it might be worth the gamble, but if there's any doubt, a 9 still holds solid value and carries a lot less risk than chasing that top grade.
How rare is Rocket's Raikou EX?
Across all grading submissions, there are 2,470 graded copies of Rocket's Raikou EX on record, and only 151 of those have earned a PSA 10. That's a pretty tight window at the top: out of every graded copy, only a small slice made it to gem mint condition. When a card's population stays this limited almost twenty years after release, it tends to hold its value well, since supply just isn't going to loosen up much from here.
Where can you pull Rocket's Raikou EX?
We've tracked 8 real pulls of Rocket's Raikou EX across pack sites, all coming through tilt-rips, with the biggest recorded hit landing at $271. It's shown up in packs like the Pokemon Expert Pack, Tilt Treasure Pack, Pokemon Ultimate Pack, and Pokemon Premium Pack, so it's not a card you're likely to see often but it does surface. Worth remembering that opening packs is a gamble and most rips don't come close to covering their cost, so if you're specifically hunting this card, buying it outright on the secondary market is usually the more reliable route.
