The collector's take on Xerosic's Machinations
Is Xerosic's Machinations worth grading?
So is it worth grading? Here's the honest math: a raw copy runs $9, and a PSA 10 sits at $27, which works out to about 3.2x the raw price. That's a real jump, but grading fees, shipping, and the wait time all eat into that gap, and gem mint isn't a given even on a card that looks clean to the naked eye. If you've got a copy with sharp corners and clean edges under good light, sending it in could make sense, but for a card in this price range, a lot of collectors will tell you it's just as satisfying to keep it raw and put the grading budget toward something with a bigger spread between raw and PSA 10.
How rare is Xerosic's Machinations?
Across all grading services, there are 279 graded copies of Xerosic's Machinations on record, and 166 of those came back as PSA 10. That's actually a pretty high ratio of gem mints to total graded copies, which tells you this card isn't especially difficult to pull off in top condition when someone takes the time to submit it. It's not a scarce card in the traditional sense, and that's part of why the price stays grounded rather than spiking.
Where can you pull Xerosic's Machinations?
This is where our data actually earns its keep. PackSpy has tracked 27 real pulls of Xerosic's Machinations across pack sites, all from tilt-rips, with the biggest recorded pull coming in at $7. We've also seen it show up in the Novice Pack, Pokemon Mini Pack, Pokemon Starter Pack, and Pokemon Dollar Pack, so if you're ripping digital packs hoping to land this one, those are the spots where it's actually turned up. Just keep in mind, as always, that pack opening is a gamble and most rips don't pay for themselves, this card included.
