Raw and slab point different ways here, and both can be true: the raw card is expensive against its graded market, while the PSA 10 itself looks cheap against fundamentals.

Squirtle earns a 73/100 investment score and an A+ grade (core hold). It's trading 42% above our fair value. That puts it among the most valuable cards in 151. Grading a raw copy to PSA-10 currently pencils about 15% ROI. It trades actively.

This is a snapshot of demand fundamentals, not a forecast and not financial advice. "Gaining steam" just shows that the price has moved recently, not that it'll keep moving. The score measures durability, not how a card behaves in a crash. And keep an eye out for reprints, which can crash a chase card fast no matter how high the grade. Scores compare cards within the modern era (Mega Evolution, Scarlet & Violet, Sword & Shield) — not against vintage.

Best case — the return if this card grades PSA 10, net of the $80.00 fee and a ~8-week turnaround haircut. PSA 10s happen about 26% of the time (the gem rate above); on a miss you roughly recover the raw cost.
