What Is Gyarados V Worth?
Gyarados V (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH07: Evolving Skies, card number 028/203. 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.
Gyarados V Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Gyarados V (SWSH07: Evolving Skies, 028/203) is worth around $1.85 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.85, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.86. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.85, Lightly Played $1.89, Moderately Played $1.40, Heavily Played $0.83, Damaged $0.86 — 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 $73.00 — about 39x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $20.50.
Is It Worth Grading Gyarados V?
Grading Gyarados V can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.85) and a PSA 10 ($73.00) is about $71.15 — a 39x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $20.50, CGC 10 $25.00, CGC 9.5 $8.50. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
