What Is Venusaur Worth?
Venusaur (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a holographic rare from Pokemon GO, card number 003/078. 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.
Venusaur Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Venusaur (Pokemon GO, 003/078) is worth around $0.74 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.74, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.38. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.74, Lightly Played $0.72, Moderately Played $0.61, Heavily Played $0.44, Damaged $0.38 — 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 $2.50 — about 3.4x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $30.00.
Is It Worth Grading Venusaur?
Grading Venusaur can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.74) and a PSA 10 ($2.50) is about $1.76 — a 3.4x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $30.00, CGC 10 $22.99, PSA 8 $20.00. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
