The collector's take on Skarmory EX
Is Skarmory EX worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw Skarmory EX runs $49, a Grade 9 gets you to $232, and a PSA 10 sits at $1,650, which works out to 33.6 times the raw price. That's a real jump, no question. But gem mint 10s are hard to hit on a card like this, print era EX cards often have edge wear or centering issues that keep them out of that top grade. Grading fees, shipping, and the wait time all eat into your potential return, so before you send one in, look closely at the corners and surface under good light. If it looks clean to your eye, it might be worth the gamble. If it's got soft corners or scratches, save your money and enjoy it raw.
How rare is Skarmory EX?
Power Keepers wasn't a massive set to begin with, and EX cards from that era were already pulled less often than your standard rares, which is part of why the price gap between raw and graded copies is so wide. We don't have exact population numbers to share here, but the pattern is clear from the value spread alone: a PSA 10 commanding $1,650 against a $49 raw price tells you gem mint copies are genuinely scarce. That scarcity is exactly what drives serious collectors to chase graded copies even when the raw version is easy enough to find.
Where can you pull Skarmory EX?
This is where PackSpy's pull data actually tells a story numbers alone can't. We've recorded Skarmory EX pulled 28 times across mnstr, with sightings turning up in Pack 2 and Pack 5. The biggest pull value we've logged for this card sits at $194, which gives you a real sense of what people are actually landing when they hit it. It's not a guaranteed pull by any means, and like most pack openings, the odds favor the house more often than not, so treat any rip as entertainment first and a potential win second. But if you're chasing this one specifically, mnstr is where our tracker has actually seen it show up.

Is Skarmory EX worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth 33.6 times the raw price. But gem mint copies are tough to land, and grading costs money and time with no guaranteed outcome, so it's worth inspecting the card closely for wear before you commit.
What set is Skarmory EX from?+
Skarmory EX #98 comes from the Power Keepers set. It's an EX card, which already puts it a step above standard rarity within that release.
