Sceptile GX is one of the sharper looking Ultra Rares from 2018's Lost Thunder set, and it's easy to see why collectors still ask about Sceptile GX value years later. Yoshinobu Saito's artwork gives this forest lizard a real sense of motion, and as one of the set's GX chase cards it carries a bit more weight than your average pack filler. If you're wondering how much is Sceptile GX worth right now, the short answer is that it sits comfortably in budget grading territory, with plenty of room to grow if you land a gem mint copy.

The collector's take on Sceptile GX
Is Sceptile GX worth grading?
Here's the honest math on Sceptile GX price at each grade: raw copies sit around $8, a Grade 9 brings about $57, and a PSA 10 currently trades near $48. That's roughly 5.8 times the raw price for a perfect 10, which is a solid jump for an $8 card, though you'll notice the Grade 9 number actually runs a touch higher than the 10 right now. That kind of overlap happens with lower population cards where the market hasn't fully settled, so it's worth checking current listings before you commit. Grading fees and shipping add up fast, and centering or edge wear on a modern Ultra Rare like this can knock you down a grade easily, so only send it in if your copy genuinely looks gem mint under a loupe.
How rare is Sceptile GX?
Across every grading company combined, only 187 copies of Sceptile GX have been graded, and 64 of those came back as PSA 10. That's actually a fairly high gem rate for a card from this era, which tells you Sceptile GX wasn't the toughest pull to keep in top condition, but the overall population is still small enough that pricing can move around based on just a handful of new submissions. With numbers this low, a single sale can shift what the card is worth, so treat any price you see as a snapshot rather than gospel.
Where can you pull Sceptile GX?
This is where PackSpy's own tracking comes in handy: we log real pack pulls across dozens of online box break and pack sites, and so far Sceptile GX hasn't turned up in any of them. That doesn't mean it's impossible to pull, but it does mean your realistic path to owning one is the secondary market rather than hoping it lands in a live break. Worth remembering too that ripping packs for a specific card is a gamble no matter how you slice it, most openings don't cover their cost, so if Sceptile GX is the one you want, buying a graded or raw copy outright is usually the more sensible route.
Questions people ask
How much is Sceptile GX worth?+
A raw, ungraded Sceptile GX from Lost Thunder is worth about $8 right now. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 fetching around $57 and a PSA 10 near $48, so condition and grading really do change the picture.
Is Sceptile GX worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sits at roughly 5.8 times the raw price of $8. Just know that grading costs money regardless of the result, and with only 187 copies graded so far and 64 of those hitting a 10, you'll want to be confident in the card's condition before sending it in.
How much is a PSA 10 Sceptile GX worth?+
A PSA 10 Sceptile GX currently trades for about $48, which works out to around 5.8 times what a raw copy sells for. There are 64 PSA 10s on record out of 187 total graded copies, so gem mint examples aren't the rarest thing out there but they still carry a clear premium.
