Tap to open
Wartortle has always been one of those middle-evolution Pokemon that collectors quietly love, and this W Stamp version from Base Set 2 gives it a bit of extra story to tell. Illustrated by Ken Sugimori and released back in 2000, it carries an Uncommon rarity that keeps it accessible, with a raw Wartortle value sitting at $53 today. It is not a card that grabs headlines, but for anyone chasing a piece of that early Base Set 2 run, it is a genuinely satisfying pickup.

The collector's take on Wartortle
Is Wartortle worth grading?
So is Wartortle worth grading? Here is the honest answer: the jump from a raw copy at $53 to a PSA 10 at $2,059 is real, and that 38.9x multiple is nothing to ignore. But gem mint is called gem mint for a reason, plenty of copies come back as a Grade 9 instead, which lands at $151, still a nice step up but nowhere near PSA 10 territory. Before you send a card in, factor in grading fees, turnaround time, and the very real chance your copy has a soft corner or a centering issue you didn't notice under normal light. If you already own a raw Wartortle in sharp condition, grading can make sense. If you are buying blind hoping to flip it, treat that like any other gamble.
How rare is Wartortle?
We don't have hard population numbers to lean on here, so let's talk about it in plain terms. Wartortle sits at Uncommon rarity within Base Set 2, a set that was itself a reprint effort back in 2000, meaning print runs were healthier than the original Base Set but still finite. Uncommons like this one aren't chased the way Rares or Holos are, which keeps the raw price grounded at $53, but that same lower demand means high grade copies don't show up constantly either. That scarcity at the top end is exactly why a PSA 10 commands $2,059 while everything below it stays comparatively affordable.
Where can you pull Wartortle?
This is where PackSpy's own tracking comes in handy, because we've recorded Wartortle pulled 200 or more times across sites including courtyard, mnstr, and collector-crypt. It shows up in a mix of pack types too, from the Pokemon Master Pack and Pokemon Basic Pack to Pack 1, the Elite Pokemon Gacha Pack, and the Pokemon Starter Pack, so it is not tied to one specific product. The biggest single pull value we've logged for this card sits at $740, a nice reminder that even an Uncommon can land well when the grade and buyer demand line up. If you're opening packs hoping to hit one, know that most rips don't come out ahead financially, but Wartortle is at least a card that turns up often enough to be a realistic target rather than a needle in a haystack.
Questions people ask

Is Wartortle worth grading?+
It can be, especially since a PSA 10 sells for 38.9 times what the raw card is worth. Just go in knowing that gem mint copies are hard to hit and grading fees eat into your margin if the card comes back lower than expected.
What set is Wartortle from?+
This Wartortle W Stamp card is from Base Set 2, released in 2000. It carries Uncommon rarity and was illustrated by Ken Sugimori, making it a nice piece of early Pokemon TCG history.
