CGC has graded 38 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
A PSA 7 sells for $9.51£7.04€8.44 against $1.51£1.12€1.34 ungraded plus $79.99£59.25€70.99 at Regular. Without a PSA population report there is nothing to weight those grades by, so this is a best case rather than an average. CGC numbers cannot stand in: the prices on this ladder are PSA prices and a CGC 10 is an easier grade to reach.

Is Emolga from Japanese Start Deck 100 Battle Collection worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $25.71 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $1.51 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $75.79.
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. 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.
