Tap to open
Tinkatink is the small, spiky little Steel-type that shows up as card #96 in the Mega Evolution set, released in 2025, and its charm comes from You Iribi's illustration work as much as anything else. As a common, it was never going to be the card that headlines a box, but if you have landed here searching for Tinkatink value, the honest answer is that this is a card collectors pick up for the art and the set completion more than for profit. Right now the raw, ungraded price sits at $0, which tells you most of what you need to know before we go any further.

The collector's take on Tinkatink
Is Tinkatink worth grading?
So is Tinkatink worth grading? Let's talk it through honestly. A raw copy currently sits at $0, a Grade 9 comes in at $10, and a PSA 10 sits at $30, which works out to about 136.3 times the raw price once a card comes back gem mint. That multiplier looks tempting on paper, but remember it is being applied to a card with essentially no raw value to begin with, so the dollar gap you are chasing is still small. Grading fees, shipping, and the real chance your copy misses gem mint all eat into that upside, so for a common like this, grading only really makes sense if you already love the card and want a PSA 10 in your collection for the sake of having it, not as an investment plan.
How rare is Tinkatink?
We do not have population figures to point to for Tinkatink in PSA 10 or Grade 9, and that is worth being upfront about rather than guessing. What we can say is that as a common from the Mega Evolution set, print runs for cards at this rarity tier tend to be generous, which is exactly why the raw price sits at $0. Scarcity at the top end, meaning genuinely gem mint copies, is really what keeps the PSA 10 price at $30 rather than closer to zero, but without hard population numbers we would rather be honest about that gap than invent a story around it.
Where can you pull Tinkatink?
This is where PackSpy actually earns its keep, because we track real pulls across pack opening sites rather than relying on price guides alone. As of now, we have not recorded a single tracked pull of Tinkatink on any site we follow, which puts it firmly in the rare or high end bucket of things people open and simply do not report seeing. If you are hunting one, your realistic path is the secondary market rather than opening pack after pack hoping it lands, and that is also a good moment to remember that opening packs is a gamble where most rips lose money. We will keep watching and update this page the moment a tracked pull comes through.

Is Tinkatink worth grading?+
Only if you are grading for the love of the card rather than the money. The jump to a PSA 10 is about 136.3 times the raw price, but since raw sits at $0, the actual dollars at stake are small once you factor in grading costs and the risk of missing gem mint.
How much is a PSA 10 Tinkatink worth?+
A PSA 10 Tinkatink is valued at $30, compared to $10 for a Grade 9 and $0 raw. That gap shows how much gem mint condition matters, even on a common card.
