What Is Bulbasaur Worth?
Bulbasaur (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Pokemon GO set, card number 001/078. 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.
Bulbasaur Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Bulbasaur (Pokemon GO, 001/078) is worth around $0.47 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.47, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.20. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.47, Lightly Played $0.33, Moderately Played $0.31, Heavily Played $0.23, Damaged $0.20 — 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 $122.00 — about 260x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $51.00.
Is It Worth Grading Bulbasaur?
Grading Bulbasaur can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.47) and a PSA 10 ($122.00) is about $121.53 — a 260x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $51.00, CGC 10 $11.99, CGC 9.5 $19.99. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
