What Is Talonflame V Worth?
Talonflame V (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH04: Vivid Voltage, card number 029/185. 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.
Talonflame V Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Talonflame V (SWSH04: Vivid Voltage, 029/185) 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 $0.31. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.92, Lightly Played $0.75, Moderately Played $0.69, Heavily Played $0.49, Damaged $0.31 — 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 $35.00 — about 38x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $14.25.
Is It Worth Grading Talonflame V?
Grading Talonflame V can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.92) and a PSA 10 ($35.00) is about $34.08 — a 38x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $14.25, CGC 10 $15.00, CGC 9.5 $8.59. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
