The most important factors are edition (1st Edition, Shadowless, Unlimited), condition (mint cards command premiums), rarity (holographic, secret rare, full art), age (vintage Base Set cards are highly sought after), and the Pokemon itself (Charizard, Pikachu, and fan favorites are worth more)
When to Get a Card Graded Grading makes sense when your card is: From the Base Set or earlier generations (19992002) First Edition or Shadowless A holographic featuring a popular Pokmon (e.g., Charizard, Pikachu, Mewtwo) In Near Mint or better condition with minimal edge wear and centering flaws Its also ideal for promotional cards like Pikachu Illustrator or Trophy Pikachu, which can sell for six or even seven figures once authenticated and graded
In those scenarios, when I find myself having trouble with a specific format that may not be as intuitive to me as others, I can reach out to several friends I respect as world-class Limited players and ask their advice on pick order or what spells/creatures I should try to draft or make sure they always end up in my Sealed decks
