What Is Zapdos Worth?

Zapdos (Holofoil variant) is a holographic rare from Generations, card number 29/83. 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.

Zapdos Value Breakdown

As of 2026, Zapdos (Generations, 29/83) is worth around $36.71 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $36.71, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $7.26. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $36.71, Lightly Played $22.09, Moderately Played $13.71, Heavily Played $9.14, Damaged $7.26 — 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 $1,175 — about 32x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $112.50.

Is It Worth Grading Zapdos?

Grading Zapdos can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($36.71) and a PSA 10 ($1,175) is about $1,138 — a 32x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $112.50, CGC 10 $149.99, PSA 8 $33.00. Grading is worth considering if your copy looks clean — the PSA 10 premium can comfortably clear the fee.
