Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 37.7% 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 $92.46£69.59€81.42 on average against $116.35£87.57€102.47 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $23.89£17.98€21.04, so a copy is worth more raw.
1 of the 5 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

What moves the price of this card
The Dark Ariados on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Neo Destiny, and it trades at $16.58£12.48€14.60 in near mint condition. The other 1 printing of the same card sits lower, which is normal: the scarcer print run always carries the premium.
Graded, it runs PSA 7 $9.50£7.15€8.37, PSA 8 $28.81£21.68€25.37, PSA 9 $32£24.08€28.18, CGC/BGS 9.5 $35£26.34€30.82, PSA 10 $199£149.78€175.25. PSA has graded 212 copies of it. 291 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Dark Ariados worth?
A PSA 10 Dark Ariados from Neo Destiny sells for $199. 38.4% 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 Dark Ariados from Neo Destiny worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $94.43 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $16.36 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $21.92.
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 $199£149.78€175.25. 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.
What Dark Ariados does
Stage1, evolves from Spinarak · 60 HP · retreat 2
EntangleIf your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, choose 1 of them and switch it with the Defending Pokémon, then flip a coin. If heads, the new Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.
Poison Bind30The Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon can't retreat until the end of your opponent's next turn and if the effect of an attack, Pokémon Power, or Trainer card would change that player's Active Pokémon, that part of the effect does nothing.
Weak to Fire ×2. Tournament legal in neither standard nor expanded.
