How we weigh the odds
We weigh every outcome by how often PSA-graded copies of this card come back a 10, 9 or 8. The average over all outcomes is the last line below.
Pop reports count submitted cards, and people mostly submit their best copies, so the real odds for a random raw card are likely a bit lower.

Mega Charizard X ex is a Special Illustration Rare Fire-type card from Phantasmal Flames, released in 2025, illustrated by danciao. Mega Charizard X ex (Phantasmal Flames, #125) sells for about $538.93 raw and around $1,270 as a PSA 10, a gap of roughly 136% before grading costs. PSA has graded 60,060 copies, and about 60% of them received a PSA 10. A PSA 9 sells for around $544.54, so a 9 still beats the raw price. The raw price has fallen about 13% over the last 30 days.

If a copy grades a 10 it nets about $476.90 after the $79.00 grading fee, shipping and selling fees; if it does not, expect to lose about $161.53, so grading pays off when more than 25% of copies hit a 10. Whether it is worth grading depends on the condition of your copy, the grading fee and how often this card reaches a 10; the grader on CardHunt gives a free AI estimate from a front and back photo.
