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.
▼ Volatile: the raw price moved -17% in the last 30 days. PSA Super Express takes about 10–15 business days, so a price move matters less here than on a months-long tier.
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.

Short answer: grading Magikarp is a close call on our numbers (verdict: CLOSE CALL).
Magikarp is an Illustration Rare Water-type card from Paldea Evolved, released in 2023, illustrated by Shinji Kanda. Magikarp (Paldea Evolved, #203) sells for about $289.66 raw and around $3,446 as a PSA 10, a gap of roughly 1,090% before grading costs. PSA has graded 26,419 copies, and about 15% of them received a PSA 10. A PSA 9 sells for around $349.01, so a 9 still beats the raw price. The raw price has fallen about 17% over the last 30 days. Our model gives a 15% chance of a PSA 10. If a copy grades a 10 it nets about $2,349 after the $349.00 grading fee, shipping and selling fees; if it does not, expect to lose about $375.15, so grading pays off when more than 14% 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.
