Scyther #1 value & price
Reviewed by Mumbles · Updated 8 Aug 2026Related Scyther & chase cards
Tap to openScyther is one of those cards that just feels right as a Pokemon pull, that classic bug-type mid-battle pose, and here it shows up as card #1 from Japan's Incandescent Arcana set, released in 2024. It is a Common, illustrated by Dsuke, so it was never meant to be the chase card of the set, but that does not stop people from searching Scyther value once they pull it or spot it online. If you are trying to figure out how much Scyther is worth right now, the short answer is: not much raw, but the grading story is more interesting than you might expect.

The collector's take on Scyther
Is Scyther worth grading?
Here is where it gets worth a second look. A raw, ungraded Scyther sits at $2, but a PSA 10 brings $41, which works out to 20.6x the raw price. That is a real jump for a Common card. The catch is that gem mint is never guaranteed, a Grade 9 only fetches $14, so if your copy comes back with a hint of edge wear or a soft corner, you have paid grading fees on a card that barely moved in value. Grading costs money and takes time no matter the outcome, so it only really makes sense here if your copy looks genuinely pack fresh under a light, sharp corners, clean surface, centered print. If you are on the fence, it is fair to hold onto it raw and wait, especially since so few copies have gone through grading so far.
How rare is Scyther?
Scarcity is where Scyther gets genuinely interesting despite being a Common. Right now there are only 2 graded copies of this card in existence, and just 1 of those is a PSA 10. That is an incredibly small sample, which cuts both ways: it means almost nobody has put this card through grading yet, so the market price for high grades is still being figured out in real time. It also means a single new PSA 10 submission could shift things, since the population is so thin that every graded copy carries outsized weight for now.
Where can you pull Scyther?
PackSpy has tracked Scyther pulled 200 or more times across sites like tilt-rips, courtyard, lastpack, collector-crypt, and packs, so this is not a card that is hiding, it shows up steadily if you are opening the right products. We have seen it land in the Rookie Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokemon Dime Pack, rookie, and The Amazing Chase Encore. The biggest recorded pull value tied to this card came in at $490, which is a reminder that pack odds and bundled hits can swing wildly depending on what else lands in that same rip. Worth saying plainly though: opening packs is gambling, most rips do not pay for themselves, and Scyther itself being a $2 raw card means the value here is really about the thrill of the pull, not the payout.
Questions people ask
How much is Scyther worth?+
A raw, ungraded Scyther from Incandescent Arcana is valued at $2. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $14 and a PSA 10 at $41, so condition makes a real difference for this one.
Is Scyther worth grading?+
It depends on the copy in your hand. The jump from raw to PSA 10 is 20.6x, which sounds great, but with only 2 graded copies total and just 1 PSA 10 on record, gem mint is clearly not easy to land. Grade it if the card looks flawless, otherwise the fees may not be worth the risk.
How much is a PSA 10 Scyther worth?+
A PSA 10 Scyther is worth $41. That is a solid step up from the $2 raw price, though with only 1 PSA 10 recorded so far, that figure is still based on a very small population.
