The collector's take on Squirtle
Is Squirtle worth grading?
So is Squirtle worth grading? Here is the honest math: a raw copy sits at $12, a Grade 9 moves up to $30, and a true PSA 10 lands at $91, which works out to about 7.7 times the raw price. That is a real jump, but gem mint is called gem mint for a reason, corners, centering and surface all have to line up perfectly, and plenty of copies come back as a 9 instead. Grading costs money and takes time, and you are sending off a card without a guarantee, so if your copy has a soft corner or off-center print, it might be smarter to enjoy it raw or sell it as is rather than gamble on the grade.
How rare is Squirtle?
TCG Classic: Blastoise Deck cards were not printed with the ultra-limited scarcity of a rare secret rare chase card, and Squirtle fits that same general profile, a well-loved, widely distributed piece rather than a short-print rarity. That broader availability is part of why the raw price stays accessible at $12. Where things tighten up is at the top end: gem mint 10s are always the minority outcome of any grading run, and that relative scarcity is what pushes the PSA 10 price up to $91 even without a card being scarce in absolute terms.
Where can you pull Squirtle?
This is where PackSpy earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than relying on guesswork. Squirtle has been pulled 200 or more times across collector-crypt, tilt-rips, courtyard, mnstr and packs, so it is genuinely out there in circulation, not just sitting in showcase collections. We have recorded copies coming out of the Water Pack, Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Novice Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack and Pokemon Mini Pack, and the biggest single recorded pull value hit $4,500, which shows how much variance a pack opening can carry. Worth saying plainly: opening packs is a gamble, and most rips do not come close to that number, so treat it as entertainment first and a possible bonus second.
Questions people ask
How much is Squirtle worth?+
A raw, ungraded Squirtle from the TCG Classic: Blastoise Deck set is valued at $12. Once graded, that number moves depending on the grade you land, with a Grade 9 sitting at $30 and a PSA 10 reaching $91.
Is Squirtle worth grading?+
It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 7.7 times the raw price of $12, landing at $91. Just know that gem mint 10s are not guaranteed, grading has real cost and risk, and a Grade 9 only brings $30, so it is worth being honest about your copy's condition before sending it in.
How much is a PSA 10 Squirtle worth?+
A PSA 10 Squirtle is valued at $91, compared to $12 for a raw copy and $30 for a Grade 9. That PSA 10 figure represents roughly 7.7 times the raw price, which is the reward for landing that perfect gem mint grade.
