AlakazamGrading odds
CGC has graded 291 copies. Where they landed:
These are CGC grades. The prices above are for PSA slabs, and a CGC 10 is not the same grade as a PSA 10, so read the two as separate markets rather than one.
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 22.8% 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 $22.41£16.87€19.74 on average against $101.25£76.21€89.17 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $78.84£59.34€69.43, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Caterpie on this page is the Normal printing from Base Set 2, and it trades at $1.15£0.87€1.01 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 8 $18.25£13.74€16.07, PSA 9 $19.48£14.66€17.16, CGC/BGS 9.5 $21£15.81€18.49, PSA 10 $43.27£32.57€38.11. PSA has graded 197 copies of it. 201 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Caterpie worth?
A PSA 10 Caterpie from Base Set 2 sells for $43.27. 23.9% 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 Caterpie from Base Set 2 worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $22.88 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $1.26 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $78.37.
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 $43.27£32.57€38.11. 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.
