CGC has graded 112 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 51.7% 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 $93.54£69.29€83.02 on average against $102.98£76.28€91.40 for the card plus $79.99£59.25€70.99 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $9.44£6.99€8.38, so a copy is worth more raw.

What is a PSA 10 Tentacool worth?
A PSA 10 Tentacool from Japanese Wind from the Sea sells for $157.50. 58.8% 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 Tentacool from Japanese Wind from the Sea worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $102.50 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $2.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $0.48.
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 $157.50£116.67€139.79. 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.
