About these prices
4.0% of copies sent to PSA come back a 10. The 9.5 is a CGC and BGS grade, so it carries no PSA population. A PSA 1 selling above a PSA 2 is the market, not a slip: the cheapest slabbed copy of a card people want is its own thing to want.

22002 Pokemon Legendary Collection Reverse Holo Venusaur #18CardHobby · Auction$303.49£228.42€267.27Grading odds
PSA has graded 3,510 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 3.2% 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 $1,343£1,011€1,183 on average against $1,029£774.47€906.21 for the card plus $599£450.84€527.52 at Walk-Through, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $314.29£236.55€276.78, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

What moves the price of this card
The Venusaur on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from Legendary Collection, and it trades at $799.99£602.11€704.53 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 1 $416.50£313.48€366.80, PSA 2 $195.50£147.14€172.17, PSA 3 $300£225.79€264.20, PSA 4 $422.50£317.99€372.08, PSA 5 $558.29£420.20€491.67, PSA 6 $750£564.48€660.50, PSA 7 $1,030£775.23€907.09, PSA 8 $1,613£1,214€1,420, PSA 9 $2,513£1,891€2,213, CGC/BGS 9.5 $2,764£2,080€2,434, PSA 10 $6,066£4,565€5,342. PSA has graded 3,510 copies of it. 2,261 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Venusaur worth?
A PSA 10 Venusaur from Legendary Collection sells for $6,066. 4.0% 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 Venusaur from Legendary Collection worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $1,291 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $410 for a raw copy plus $619 to send it through PSA Walk-Through, so it clears $261.88.
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 $6,066£4,565€5,342. 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.
