Tatsugiri — collector's take

Is Tatsugiri worth grading?

So is it worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw Tatsugiri runs $21, a Grade 9 brings $30, and a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $216, which works out to about 10.2 times the raw price. That's a real gap, no question. But gem mint isn't a given. Illustration rares like this one are printed with a lot of surface and edge exposure, so centering, whitening, and print lines can knock you down to a 9 pretty easily, and once you factor in grading fees and turnaround time, that $30 Grade 9 outcome isn't nearly as exciting as the PSA 10 headline number. If you've got a copy that looks clean under a loupe and you're not in a rush, it can make sense to send it in. If it's just a solid raw copy with a soft corner or two, it might be smarter to enjoy it as is or sell it raw.

How rare is it?

Across every copy that's been submitted, there are 9,497 graded Tatsugiri cards on record, and of those, 4,116 have come back a PSA 10. That's a decent chunk landing at the top grade, which tells you the card grades reasonably well when the copy is solid to begin with, but it also means gem mint isn't some ultra-rare unicorn. It's earned, not just found. That population size is exactly why the PSA 10 price sits where it does: enough copies exist to set a real market, but not so many that a clean 10 loses its shine.

Where to pull it

We've tracked 37 recorded pulls of Tatsugiri across collector-crypt and courtyard, with the biggest single pull coming in at $82. It's shown up in a mix of pack types, including the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Starter Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokémon Master Pack, and Pokémon Pro Pack. That spread across different pack tiers is the kind of thing you only see when you're actually watching real openings happen, not just reading a price guide. Worth saying plainly: pack odds are a gamble, and most rips don't beat what you paid in, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than the plan.

Questions people ask

How much is Tatsugiri worth?

A raw, ungraded Tatsugiri #186 is currently valued at $21. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $30 and a PSA 10 reaching $216, so condition makes a real difference here.

Is Tatsugiri worth grading?

It can be, since a PSA 10 is worth about 10.2 times the raw price. But with 4,116 PSA 10s out of 9,497 total graded copies, gem mint isn't automatic, so check your card closely and weigh the grading cost before sending it in.

What set is Tatsugiri from?

Tatsugiri #186 comes from the Twilight Masquerade set, released in 2024. It's an illustration rare illustrated by osare, which is part of why it's become such a favorite among collectors.
