What Is Heracross Worth?
Heracross (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the SWSH10: Astral set, card number 008/189. 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.
Heracross Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Heracross (SWSH10: Astral, 008/189) is worth around $0.16 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.16, while a Heavily Played one drops to roughly $0.50. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.16, Lightly Played $0.15, Moderately Played $0.06, Heavily Played $0.50 — 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 $37.95 — about 237x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value.
Is It Worth Grading Heracross?
Grading Heracross can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.16) and a PSA 10 ($37.95) is about $37.79 — a 237x uplift before grading fees. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
