The collector's take on Smeargle
Is Smeargle worth grading?
So is Smeargle worth grading? A PSA 10 sits at $51 against a raw price of $4, which works out to roughly 13.4 times what the ungraded card sells for, and that jump is real. But grading has its own costs and turnaround time, and a $4 card does not leave much room for error once fees are factored in. With population numbers showing that a large share of graded copies already come back as PSA 10, gem mint is achievable here, but it is worth being honest with yourself about whether the math works before you send one off. For a lot of collectors, this one is more about the fun of owning a Smeargle than chasing a big payday.
How rare is Smeargle?
Looking at the numbers, 3,561 copies of this Smeargle have been graded in total, and 2,764 of those came back as PSA 10. That is a notably high share landing at the top grade, which tells you that while the card is not scarce in an absolute sense, hitting a perfect 10 is genuinely common once someone bothers to grade it. That combination, a healthy population with plenty of gem mint copies already out there, is a big part of why the PSA 10 price sits at $51 rather than climbing much higher.
Where can you pull Smeargle?
PackSpy has tracked this Smeargle being pulled 38 times across courtyard, lastpack, and collector-crypt, so it does show up if you are opening packs regularly on those sites. The biggest recorded pull came in at $119, which shows there is some real upside when a nice copy lands. We have seen it turn up in The Amazing Chase Encore, starter, Pokemon Starter Pack, Pokemon Pro Pack, and Wildcard Starter Pack, so starter-style and pro packs seem to be where it shows up most. Worth remembering that opening packs is a gamble and most rips do not beat what you paid, but this is the kind of cross-site pull data you will not find in a static price guide.
