CGC has graded 532 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 34.8% 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 $70.92£53.38€62.46 on average against $103.49£77.89€91.14 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $32.57£24.51€28.68, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Koga's Tangela on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Gym Challenge, and it trades at $5.62£4.23€4.95 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 $27.66£20.82€24.36, PSA 9 $30£22.58€26.42, CGC/BGS 9.5 $52.31£39.37€46.07, PSA 10 $152.44£114.73€134.25. PSA has graded 508 copies of it. 528 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Koga's Tangela worth?
A PSA 10 Koga's Tangela from Gym Challenge sells for $152.44. 38.5% 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 Koga's Tangela from Gym Challenge worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $75.94 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3.50 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $27.55.
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 $152.44£114.73€134.25. 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.
