What Is Turtonator GX Worth?
Turtonator GX (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SM - Guardians Rising, card number 18/145. 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.
Turtonator GX Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Turtonator GX (SM - Guardians Rising, 18/145) is worth around $1.92 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.92, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.90. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.92, Lightly Played $1.57, Moderately Played $1.23, Heavily Played $1.11, Damaged $0.90 — 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 $44.99 — about 23x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $5.50.
Is It Worth Grading Turtonator GX?
