What Is Magikarp Worth?
Magikarp (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the SM - Burning Shadows set, card number 32/147. 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.
Magikarp Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Magikarp (SM - Burning Shadows, 32/147) is worth around $0.64 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.64, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.14. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.64, Lightly Played $0.54, Moderately Played $0.44, Heavily Played $0.69, Damaged $0.14 — 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 $65.00 — about 102x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $23.50.
Is It Worth Grading Magikarp?
Grading Magikarp can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.64) and a PSA 10 ($65.00) is about $64.36 — a 102x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $23.50, CGC 10 $109.00, PSA 8 $21.51. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
