Question 1

Is Zubat worth grading?

Accepted Answer

So is Zubat worth grading? Here's the honest breakdown. A raw copy runs $15, but a PSA 10 sells for $145, which works out to about 9.9 times the raw price, and even a Grade 9 lands at $129. That's a real jump, no question. But gem mint isn't a given: out of 318 total graded copies, only 145 have come back PSA 10, so a solid chunk of submissions land at Grade 9 or lower. Grading costs money and takes time, and there's no refund if the card comes back with a crease you didn't spot under normal light. If your copy looks genuinely clean, corners sharp, centering even, it's worth a shot. If it's a little rough around the edges, you might be better off enjoying it raw or trading it into something graded already.

Question 2

How rare is Zubat?

Accepted Answer

Scarcity here is more interesting than you might expect for a common card. With 318 total graded copies, Zubat isn't sitting in some enormous, anonymous pool, and within that population, 145 are PSA 10. That's actually a healthy proportion of gem mints relative to the total, which tells you the card grades reasonably well when it's in good shape to begin with. It's not a scarce card in the way a rare holo might be, but the population numbers do show that clean, top-graded copies are earning their price rather than just being handed out.

Question 3

Where can you pull Zubat?

Accepted Answer

This is where PackSpy's own tracking earns its keep, because no price guide tells you this part. We've recorded Zubat pulled 200 or more times across pack sites including tilt-rips, collector-crypt, and courtyard, so it's genuinely out there in circulation rather than something you only see on the secondary market. It's turned up in a spread of pack types too, from the Pokemon Dime Pack and Starter Pokémon Gacha Pack to the Wildcard Basic Pack, Pokémon Master Pack, and Pokémon Starter Pack. The biggest recorded pull value we've logged for it sits at $91, which is a nice reminder of what a well graded hit can bring, though it's worth saying plainly that most pack openings don't come out ahead, this is entertainment first and a card win second.

Question 4

How much is Zubat worth?

Accepted Answer

A raw, ungraded Zubat from the Series 1 Japanese Vending set is valued at $15. Once graded, the value climbs, with a Grade 9 sitting at $129 and a PSA 10 reaching $145.

Question 5

Is Zubat worth grading?

Accepted Answer

It can be, since a PSA 10 sells for about 9.9 times the raw price of $15. But only 145 out of 318 total graded copies have hit that PSA 10 mark, so grading is worth it mainly if your copy is genuinely clean and you're comfortable with the cost and risk involved.

Question 6

How much is a PSA 10 Zubat worth?

Accepted Answer

A PSA 10 Zubat is currently valued at $145, compared to $15 for a raw copy. With 145 PSA 10s recorded out of 318 total graded copies, it's a meaningful step up but not an impossible one to reach.
