Zubat #57 value & price

Tap to open
Zubat #57 is one of those familiar faces from the original Fossil set, released back in 1999, and even as a Common card it's earned a soft spot with collectors who grew up chasing that classic checklist. Illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno, it's not a card that turns heads for rarity of print, but plenty of people search Zubat value simply because it's a nostalgic piece of Pokemon history worth understanding before you buy, sell, or send one off to grading. Right now a raw copy sits at $1, which tells you most of what you need to know about where this card lives on the collector's ladder, but the story gets more interesting once grading enters the picture.

The collector's take on Zubat
Is Zubat worth grading?
If you're wondering whether Zubat is worth grading, the honest answer depends on what you're chasing. A raw copy sits at $1, a Grade 9 climbs to $21, and a PSA 10 jumps all the way to $125, which works out to about 89.3 times the raw price. That's a real gap, and it's the kind of number that gets collectors excited, but gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on 1999 Fossil cardstock, and grading fees plus shipping and waiting time can eat into your return fast if the card comes back a 9 instead of a 10. If you already have a sharp-cornered copy sitting in a sleeve, it might be worth the gamble, but don't expect every Zubat you pull to grade out perfect.
How rare is Zubat?
Across every copy that's ever been submitted, only 1,318 have come back graded, and out of that stack just 135 have earned a PSA 10. That's a fairly small slice landing in gem mint territory, and it helps explain why the jump from Grade 9 to PSA 10 in price is so dramatic. For a Common card, that kind of gap between raw and top grade shows that condition, not rarity of print, is really what drives the Zubat price at the top end.
Where can you pull Zubat?
This is where PackSpy's own pull tracking comes in handy, since we log real rips across pack sites rather than relying on price guides alone. Zubat has shown up 200 or more times across tilt-rips, collector-crypt, and courtyard, so it's not a card you'll wait forever to see if you're opening packs regularly. It's turned up in products like the Pokemon Dime Pack, Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack, Wildcard Basic Pack, Pokémon Master Pack, and Pokémon Starter Pack, and the biggest pull value we've recorded for it sits at $91. Worth remembering though, opening packs is a gamble, and most rips won't come close to that number, so treat any pull as a bonus rather than a plan.
