The collector's take on Scream Tail ex
Is Scream Tail ex worth grading?
Here is the honest math: a raw Scream Tail ex runs about $3, a Grade 9 climbs to $20, and a PSA 10 sits at $46, which works out to 15.7 times the raw price. That jump looks tempting on paper, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit, this card has to come back from grading with sharp corners and clean edges to earn that top grade, and grading fees plus shipping and waiting time eat into any profit if the card comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If you already own a raw copy that looks sharp under a light and you are grading for the fun of chasing a PSA 10 rather than purely for profit, it can be worth the gamble. If you are buying loose singles specifically to grade and flip, the math is tighter than it looks at first glance.
How rare is it?
Across all grading submissions, only 523 copies of Scream Tail ex have been graded, and of those, 295 have come back a PSA 10. That is actually a pretty high gem rate as far as populations go, meaning this card grades well when submitted, which keeps the PSA 10 price grounded rather than sky high. It is not an ultra scarce card in absolute numbers, but the population data is useful because it tells you real supply exists at the top grade, so a PSA 10 buyer is not chasing something impossibly rare, just something reasonably well made.
Where to pull it
PackSpy has tracked 10 real pulls of Scream Tail ex across the pack sites we monitor, specifically collector-crypt and courtyard, with the best recorded pull landing at $33. We have seen it show up in the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, the Pokémon Basic Pack, and the Wildcard Basic Pack, so it is out there, just not something you should expect on every rip. That low pull count matters: it tells you this card is more often bought as a single on the secondary market than pulled fresh from a pack, and it is a good reminder that opening packs is a gamble where most rips do not cover their cost, this data just helps you see the odds a little more clearly than guessing.
Questions people ask
How much is Scream Tail ex worth?+
A raw, ungraded Scream Tail ex is valued at $3 right now. Graded copies are worth more, with a Grade 9 at $20 and a PSA 10 reaching $46, so the value really depends on condition and whether it has been graded.
Is Scream Tail ex worth grading?+
A PSA 10 is worth 15.7 times the raw price, which sounds great, but gem mint copies are genuinely tough to pull off and grading costs money and time either way. It is a reasonable gamble if your raw copy already looks clean, but treat it as a gamble, not a guarantee.
What set is Scream Tail ex from?+
Scream Tail ex #197 is from Twilight Masquerade, released in 2024. It is an Ultra Rare illustrated by PLANETA Hiiragi, one of the standout chase cards from that release.
