What Is Energy Retrieval Worth?
Energy Retrieval (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is an Uncommon from XY - Evolutions, card number 77/108. 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.
Energy Retrieval Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Energy Retrieval (XY - Evolutions, 77/108) is worth around $0.98 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.98, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.25. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.98, Lightly Played $0.74, Moderately Played $0.60, Heavily Played $0.72, Damaged $0.25 — 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 $112.50 — about 115x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $7.30.
Is It Worth Grading Energy Retrieval?

Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $7.30, PSA 8 $9.51. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
