Shaymin — collector's take
Is Shaymin worth grading?
So is Shaymin worth grading? It depends on what you pull. A raw copy sits around $11, a Grade 9 gets you to $21, and a true PSA 10 jumps all the way to $135, which works out to 12.1x the raw price. That's a real gap, and it's tempting. But gem mint is called gem mint for a reason: centering, edges, and surface all have to line up perfectly, and plenty of copies that look flawless to the eye come back as a 9 instead. Add in grading fees and turnaround time, and you're taking a calculated risk, not a guaranteed payout. If you've got a copy that looks sharp under a light and you're patient about the wait, it can be worth sending in. If it's got soft corners or a scuff you can see without trying hard, save your money and enjoy the raw card.
How rare is it?
We don't have official population numbers to lean on here, but Shaymin's spot in Destined Rivals puts it in that mid-tier rarity band where it's common enough to see in packs but scarce enough in top grade that a genuine PSA 10 stands out. That gap between raw and gem mint pricing, $11 up to $135, tells its own story: plenty of copies exist, but very few survive the print and handling process in perfect shape. That scarcity at the top end is exactly what keeps PSA 10 prices well above everything else.
Where to pull it
This is where PackSpy's data actually means something, because we track real pulls across live pack sites, not just guesses. Shaymin #185 has been pulled 12 times in our records, showing up in packs like starter and Sinnoh Safari, and across sites including lastpack and packs. The biggest recorded pull hit $1,440, which is a nice reminder of how variance works in this hobby. Most rips don't land anywhere close to that number, and opening packs is gambling at the end of the day, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than an expectation.

Is Shaymin worth grading?
It can be, if your copy is genuinely clean. The jump from $11 raw to $135 for a PSA 10 is significant, but hitting that gem mint grade isn't easy and grading isn't free. Look closely at centering and surface before you commit to sending it in.
