What Is Scyther Worth?
Scyther (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the FireRed & LeafGreen set, card number 29/112. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it carries real mid-range value and is worth keeping protected in a sleeve and top-loader.
Scyther Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Scyther (FireRed & LeafGreen, 29/112) is worth around $32.50 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $32.50, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $7.15. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $32.50, Lightly Played $29.86, Moderately Played $17.94, Heavily Played $17.21, Damaged $7.15 — 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 $274.00 — about 8.4x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $100.00.
Is It Worth Grading Scyther?
Grading Scyther can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($32.50) and a PSA 10 ($274.00) is about $241.50 — a 8.4x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $100.00, CGC 10 $150.00, CGC 9.5 $41.00. Grading is worth considering if your copy looks clean — the PSA 10 premium can comfortably clear the fee.
