What Is Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese) Worth?
Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese) (Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the S9: Star Birth set, card number 013/100. 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.
Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese) (S9: Star Birth, 013/100) is worth around $0.92 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.92, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.50. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.92, Lightly Played $0.81, 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 $20.00 — about 22x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $9.00.
Is It Worth Grading Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese)?
Grading Shaymin VSTAR (Japanese) can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.92) and a PSA 10 ($20.00) is about $19.08 — a 22x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $9.00, CGC 10 $18.49, CGC 9.5 $13.95. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
