What Is Entei V Worth?
Entei V (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH09: Brilliant Stars, card number 022/172. 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.
Entei V Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Entei V (SWSH09: Brilliant Stars, 022/172) is worth around $1.46 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.46, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.64. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.46, Lightly Played $1.32, Moderately Played $1.10, Heavily Played $0.46, Damaged $0.64 — 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 $50.00 — about 34x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $14.95.
Is It Worth Grading Entei V?
Grading Entei V can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($1.46) and a PSA 10 ($50.00) is about $48.54 — a 34x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $14.95, CGC 10 $25.00, CGC 9.5 $8.50. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
