Question 1

Is Squirtle worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is Squirtle worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy runs $29, a Grade 9 comes in at $140, and a PSA 10 sits at $104, which works out to about 3.6 times the raw price. That jump looks tempting, but gem mint is genuinely hard to land, especially on a card from 2004 where corners and surface wear tend to creep in over the years. Grading costs money and takes time, and there's no guarantee your copy comes back a 10, so weigh the fee against what you're actually holding before you send it in. If the card already looks clean under a bright light with sharp corners and no whitening, it's worth a shot. If it's borderline, you might just enjoy it raw.

Question 2

How rare is Squirtle?

Accepted Answer

Across all grading companies, there are 726 graded copies of Squirtle on record, and only 198 of those have earned the top PSA 10 grade. That's roughly a quarter of the graded population hitting gem mint, which tells you grading this one isn't a coin flip, but it's not a guarantee either. For a common card, that population number matters less for rarity bragging rights and more for what it says about condition: clean, well-centered copies from this era aren't as common as you'd think, and that scarcity is part of what keeps the PSA 10 price holding steady above the raw.

Question 3

Where can you pull Squirtle?

Accepted Answer

This is where PackSpy's tracking actually earns its keep. We've recorded Squirtle pulled 200 or more times across sites like collector-crypt, tilt-rips, courtyard, mnstr, and packs, so it's not a card you have to go hunting the secondary market for, it does show up in live breaks. It's turned up in packs like the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Novice Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, Pokemon Mini Pack, and The Amazing Chase Encore. The biggest pull value we've logged for this card sits at $4,500, which is a reminder that even a common card can land a surprisingly good hit depending on the copy and grade. Just remember, pack opening is a gamble by nature, and most rips don't come close to that number.

Question 4

How much is Squirtle worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Squirtle #83 is currently valued at $29. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $140 and a PSA 10 at $104, so condition and grading make a real difference in what it's worth.

Question 5

Is Squirtle worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 3.6 times the raw price. But gem mint copies are genuinely tough to pull off, so only send it in if the card looks sharp with clean corners and no surface flaws, otherwise the grading fee might not pay off.

Question 6

How much is a PSA 10 Squirtle worth?

Accepted Answer

A PSA 10 Squirtle is worth $104 right now, out of only 198 copies that have earned that grade out of 726 total graded. It's a nice jump from the $29 raw price, though the population shows just how hard gem mint is to land.
