What Is Whimsicott VSTAR Worth?
Whimsicott VSTAR (Holofoil variant) is an ultra-rare chase card from SWSH09: Brilliant Stars, card number 065/172. 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.
Whimsicott VSTAR Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Whimsicott VSTAR (SWSH09: Brilliant Stars, 065/172) is worth around $1.22 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.22, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $1.04. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $1.22, Lightly Played $1.00, Moderately Played $1.07, Heavily Played $1.33, Damaged $1.04 — 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 $49.95 — about 41x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $8.28.
Is It Worth Grading Whimsicott VSTAR?
