Tarountula is the illustration rare version of card #199 from the Scarlet & Violet set, released back in 2023 with artwork from Miki Tanaka that gives this little spider Pokemon a lot more personality than you'd expect. If you're here trying to pin down Tarountula's value, the short answer is that it sits at $13 raw, which makes sense for an illustration rare from this set: not a chase card, but the kind of pull that still makes you smile when you flip it over. It's a nice one to have in a binder even if it's not going to fund your next box.

The collector's take on Tarountula

Is Tarountula worth grading?

So is Tarountula worth grading? Here's the honest breakdown. A raw copy sits at $13, and a PSA 10 trades at $37, which works out to about 2.8 times the raw price. That's a real jump, but it's worth remembering that grading costs money upfront and there's no guarantee your copy comes back gem mint. Interestingly, a Grade 9 copy is currently valued at $471, well above the PSA 10 figure, which is a good reminder that graded card pricing doesn't always move in a straight line the way you'd expect. Before you send Tarountula off to get slabbed, take a close look at the centering and edges under good light, and think honestly about whether the potential return justifies the grading fee and the wait.

How rare is Tarountula?

Scarcity is where the story gets interesting. Across all grading companies combined, there are 1,530 graded copies of Tarountula on record, and of those, only 63 have earned a PSA 10. That tells you gem mint copies are genuinely hard to come by relative to the overall population. It's not an ultra rare card by any means, but that population split explains why a clean, high grade copy carries real weight compared to a raw one sitting in a binder.

Where can you pull Tarountula?

This is where PackSpy's own data comes in handy, since we track real pulls across pack opening sites rather than just guessing at odds. We've recorded Tarountula being pulled 10 times so far, all across lastpack, with the biggest recorded pull coming in at $18. It's also shown up in packs themed around starter, trainer, rookie, and explorer lineups. If you're hoping to pull one yourself, those are the pack types where collectors have actually landed it, though as with any pack opening, the odds favor the house and most rips don't pay for themselves.

Questions people ask

How much is Tarountula worth?+

A raw, ungraded Tarountula is currently valued at $13. That's the figure most collectors will see when buying or selling a standard copy straight out of a pack or binder.

Is Tarountula worth grading?+

It depends on your goals. A PSA 10 brings $37, which is 2.8 times the raw value, and a Grade 9 currently sits at $471, so there's money on the table if your copy is sharp. Just weigh that potential against grading fees and the real chance your card doesn't come back gem mint.

How much is a PSA 10 Tarountula worth?+

A PSA 10 Tarountula is valued at $37. Only 63 out of 1,530 graded copies have hit that gem mint grade, so it's a solid outcome if you're grading a raw copy yourself.
