What Is Groudon Worth?
Groudon (Holofoil variant) is a holographic rare from Celebrations, card number 017/025. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it is an affordable, easy-to-find card best valued as part of a complete set rather than on its own.
Groudon Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Groudon (Celebrations, 017/025) is worth around $0.33 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.33, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.12. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.33, Lightly Played $0.33, Moderately Played $0.30, Heavily Played $0.16, Damaged $0.12 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $76.00 — about 230x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $9.50.
Is It Worth Grading Groudon?
Grading Groudon can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.33) and a PSA 10 ($76.00) is about $75.67 — a 230x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $9.50, CGC 10 $43.00, CGC 9.5 $10.00. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
