What Is Sylveon V (Japanese) Worth?
Sylveon V (Japanese) (Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the S8b: VMAX Climax set, card number 074/184. 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.
Sylveon V (Japanese) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Sylveon V (Japanese) (S8b: VMAX Climax, 074/184) is worth around $1.54 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.54, while a Moderately Played one drops to roughly $1.28. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.54, Lightly Played $1.72, Moderately Played $1.28 — 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 $22.50 — about 15x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $10.25.
Is It Worth Grading Sylveon V (Japanese)?
Grading Sylveon V (Japanese) can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.54) and a PSA 10 ($22.50) is about $20.96 — a 15x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $10.25, CGC 10 $22.00, CGC 9.5 $24.99. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
