It's roughly a wash: with a 9% PSA 10 gem rate and current graded prices, grading a near-mint Sceptile (10/168) is estimated to come out within about $10 of selling it raw (est.); grade for protection or display, not profit.

Assumes ~$25/card bulk-rate grading (standard service costs more); ignores turnaround time, sub-9 grades, and shipping. A screen, not a promise.

Sceptile (10/168) is a Rare. PSA has graded 156 copies to date, so graded supply is measurable and growing.

Of the 156 copies PSA has graded, 9% earned a PSA 10. That's a low gem rate, so flawless copies are genuinely hard to come by. Grade-by-grade population and pop-over-time appear with Riffle premium.
