Turtwig #17 value & price

Tap to open
Turtwig is the little grass-type starter that showed up in POP Series 8 back in 2008, illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda in that clean, simple style those promo era sets were known for. It's a Common card, so it was never meant to be rare, but there's something charming about a starter Pokemon that still gets people searching for its value years later. If you're wondering about Turtwig price or trying to figure out how much is Turtwig worth today, the short answer is: not a fortune raw, but a graded gem mint copy tells a different story.

The collector's take on Turtwig
Is Turtwig worth grading?
Here's the honest breakdown: a raw, ungraded Turtwig sits at $4, a Grade 9 jumps to $34, and a PSA 10 lands at $143, which works out to roughly 37.7 times the raw price. That's a real jump, no question, but it comes with real risk too. Grading costs money and takes time, and pulling a true gem mint from a common promo card isn't automatic since even small print or centering issues can knock it down a grade. If you've got a copy that looks sharp under a loupe with clean edges and centering, it might be worth the gamble, but don't send off a beat up copy expecting a PSA 10 miracle. For most raw copies, the smarter move is just enjoying the card or selling it as is.
How rare is Turtwig?
Turtwig carries a Common rarity tag, which tells you plainly it wasn't printed to be scarce. POP Series 8 was a promotional set distributed through organized play, so copies were never as widespread as a mainline set expansion, but common cards from these releases still turn up steadily. We don't have population numbers to lean on here, so take rarity talk with a grain of salt: this is a card whose value comes more from grading quality than from being hard to find in the first place. A clean PSA 10 will always be scarcer than the raw copies floating around simply because gem mint condition is rare no matter the print run.
Where can you pull Turtwig?
This is where PackSpy's data actually helps, because we track real pulls across pack sites rather than guessing. Turtwig has been pulled 200 or more times across collector-crypt, tilt-rips, lastpack, courtyard, and packs, and it's shown up in packs like the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, Pokemon Dime Pack, rookie, Wildcard Basic Pack, and Pokémon Pro Pack. The biggest recorded pull value we've logged for this card sits at $80, which gives you a sense of the ceiling even on a good hit. It's worth remembering that opening packs is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to covering their cost, so if you're chasing a specific Turtwig value, buying a known graded copy is often the steadier route.
Questions people ask
How much is Turtwig worth?+
A raw, ungraded Turtwig from POP Series 8 is worth $4. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 valued at $34 and a PSA 10 reaching $143.
Is Turtwig worth grading?+
It depends on the condition of your copy. Since a PSA 10 is worth 37.7x the raw price, grading can pay off if your card is sharp and well centered, but grading costs and the chance of a lower grade mean it's not a guaranteed win.
How much is a PSA 10 Turtwig worth?+
A PSA 10, gem mint Turtwig is valued at $143, a big step up from the $4 raw price and the $34 Grade 9 price. That said, hitting a true PSA 10 on a common card isn't as easy as it sounds.
