What Is Machamp Worth?
Machamp (Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the Detective Pikachu set, card number 13/18. 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.
Machamp Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Machamp (Detective Pikachu, 13/18) is worth around $1.72 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.72, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.57. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.72, Lightly Played $0.84, Moderately Played $0.73, Heavily Played $0.47, Damaged $0.57 — 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 $44.99 — about 26x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $11.60.
Is It Worth Grading Machamp?
Grading Machamp can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.72) and a PSA 10 ($44.99) is about $43.27 — a 26x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $11.60, CGC 10 $15.50, PSA 8 $8.60. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
