What Is Tornadus Worth?

Tornadus (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the SWSH09: Brilliant set, card number 126/172. 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.

Tornadus Value Breakdown

As of 2026, Tornadus (SWSH09: Brilliant, 126/172) is worth around $0.20 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.20, while a Moderately Played one drops to roughly $0.18. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.20, Lightly Played $0.16, Moderately Played $0.18 — 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 $36.00 — about 180x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $5.00.

Is It Worth Grading Tornadus?

Grading Tornadus can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.20) and a PSA 10 ($36.00) is about $35.80 — a 180x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $5.00, PSA 8 $10.50. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
