What Is Machamp Worth?
Machamp (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a holographic rare from Generations, card number 42/83. 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 (Generations, 42/83) is worth around $1.89 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.89, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.50. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.89, Lightly Played $1.40, Moderately Played $1.36, Heavily Played $0.69, Damaged $0.50 — 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 $320.00 — about 169x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value.
Is It Worth Grading Machamp?
Grading Machamp can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.89) and a PSA 10 ($320.00) is about $318.11 — a 169x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 8 $9.50. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
