Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 13.8% of copies reach a 10, which is why the top price is the wrong number to plan around. Weighting each grade’s PSA price by these odds, a submission is worth $64.25£48.36€56.59 on average against $113.19£85.19€99.68 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $48.94£36.83€43.10, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Blastoise EX on this page is the Holofoil printing from Generations, and it trades at $16.01£12.05€14.10 in near mint condition. Only one printing of this card was produced, so there is no cheaper version to confuse it with.
Graded, it runs PSA 7 $22.75£17.12€20.04, PSA 8 $24.76£18.64€21.81, PSA 9 $45.59£34.31€40.15, CGC/BGS 9.5 $50£37.63€44.03, PSA 10 $263.11£198.03€231.71. PSA has graded 607 copies of it. 518 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Blastoise EX worth?
A PSA 10 Blastoise EX from Generations sells for $263.11. 13.5% of the copies PSA has graded came back a 10, so that price is the best case rather than the one a submission should expect.
Is Blastoise EX from Generations worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $63.32 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $13.20 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $49.87.
Condition does most of the work below the surface. A copy with soft corners or a print line off centre trades well under the market price shown here, and a copy clean enough to grade trades well above it, which is why the PSA 10 sits at $263.11£198.03€231.71. Before you value your own copy, look at the corners under a light and check the centring on the back, where most cards give themselves away.
