Question 1

Is Vaporeon worth grading?

Accepted Answer

Here's the honest math on grading Vaporeon: a raw, ungraded copy runs $1,175, a Grade 9 sits at $4,191, and a PSA 10 in gem mint condition commands $26,419, which works out to about 22.5 times the raw price. That's a serious jump, and it's tempting to send every copy you own off to get graded. But population data tells the real story: out of 2,688 total graded copies, only 110 have earned that PSA 10 label. Gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on a card this old, with its glossy surface and gold foil prone to scratches and print lines. Grading costs money and time, and there's no guarantee your card comes back a 10 instead of a 9 or lower, so weigh the centering and surface under good light before you commit. If the card already looks clean edge to edge, it's worth a shot. If it's borderline, you might be paying to find out it's worth closer to Grade 9 money than PSA 10 money.

Question 2

How rare is Vaporeon?

Accepted Answer

Across every grading company combined, only 2,688 copies of this card have been graded, and just 110 of those came back a perfect PSA 10. That's a small slice, roughly 4 percent of the graded population, which tells you gem mint Vaporeon copies are genuinely rare finds rather than something that turns up regularly. When a card is this hard to find in top condition, it puts real weight behind the PSA 10 price tag, since so few collectors ever get to hold one at that grade.

Question 3

Where can you pull Vaporeon?

Accepted Answer

PackSpy has tracked 68 pulls of this Vaporeon across pack sites including mnstr, collector-crypt, and lastpack, so we know it does surface, just not often. It's shown up in packs like Pack 2, Pack 5, the Elite Pokémon Gacha Pack, the Mythic Pokémon Gacha Pack, and the Anime Pop Culture Gacha, and the biggest recorded pull value we've logged for it sits at $2,262. That gives you a real sense of what people have actually walked away with, not just theoretical price guide numbers. Worth saying plainly: opening packs is a gamble, and most rips don't come close to covering their cost, so if you're chasing this Vaporeon specifically, buying a known raw or graded copy on the secondary market is usually the steadier route.

Question 4

How much is Vaporeon worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Vaporeon Gold Star #102 is valued at $1,175. Graded copies climb from there, with a Grade 9 at $4,191 and a PSA 10 reaching $26,419, so condition makes a huge difference to what this card is worth.

Question 5

Is Vaporeon worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 22.5 times the raw price. But only 110 out of 2,688 graded copies have hit that gem mint grade, so check your card's surface and centering carefully before sending it in, because grading costs money whether you land a 10 or not.

Question 6

What set is Vaporeon from?

Accepted Answer

Vaporeon Gold Star #102 comes from the Power Keepers set, released in 2007. It's a Rare card illustrated by Masakazu Fukuda, and its Gold Star status is a big reason collectors still hunt for it today.
