PSA has graded 608 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 36.0% 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 $86.19£64.87€75.91 on average against $103.98£78.26€91.57 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $17.79£13.39€15.66, so a copy is worth more raw.

What moves the price of this card
The Misty's Poliwag on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Gym Challenge, and it trades at $4.18£3.15€3.68 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 $12£9.03€10.57, PSA 8 $21£15.81€18.49, PSA 9 $39.51£29.74€34.80, CGC/BGS 9.5 $43£32.36€37.87, PSA 10 $181.97£136.96€160.26. PSA has graded 608 copies of it. 537 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Misty's Poliwag worth?
A PSA 10 Misty's Poliwag from Gym Challenge sells for $181.97. 37.6% 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 Misty's Poliwag from Gym Challenge worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $89.31 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $14.67.
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 $181.97£136.96€160.26. 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.
