Grading math for this card
Prefilled with the latest qualifying sale for each grade where one exists. Replace any value with your own. We never suggest what grade your copy will get.
Formula from Grading: condition, uncertainty, and economics: grading pays only if your honest chance of the high grade exceeds (raw net + cost − other-outcome net) ÷ (high-grade net − other-outcome net). The 13% fee is an editable assumption, not a quoted tariff.
About Squirtle
Squirtle 170/165 is the English Illustration Rare from Scarlet & Violet—151. Collectors search for it because it is part of the Kanto-focused 151 release and is often compared with the separate Stellar Crown Squirtle Illustration Rare.
Why this card matters
Verified factSquirtle 170/165 belongs to Scarlet & Violet—151, a Kanto-focused set organized around the original 151 Pokémon. The card’s collector appeal is tied to that set theme, the Illustration Rare treatment, and Mitsuhiro Arita’s artwork. The official set page documents 151 as a Scarlet & Violet expansion with products launched on September 22, 2023, while the card catalog source identifies this exact Squirtle as MEW/sv3-5 #170/165. That identity must be kept separate from Stellar Crown Squirtle 148/142 and from ordinary Squirtle printings in the same era. [1][2]
Identifying the exact version
Verified factThe lower border should identify the card as 170/165 from 151, not 148/142 from Stellar Crown. The set code used by catalog and PSA records is MEW EN-151, and the card is an Illustration Rare, not a base common or promo. PSA labels for qualifying comps should read 2023 Pokemon MEW EN-151 #170 Squirtle Illustration Rare. Keep English copies separate from Japanese or other-language releases, and keep PSA 10, PSA 9, PSA 8, raw, and other-grader records in separate buckets. [1][3][4]
What moves the price between versions and grades
AnalysisThe strongest price separation visible in the opened PSA evidence is grade. PSA 10 sales for this exact card were several times higher than PSA 9 rows in the same month, while PSA 8 rows were lower again. That gap does not mean a raw card will grade 10; Chapter 04 warns that pack-fresh origin is not a promised grade. For valuation, use same-grade sold comps first, then inspect current supply and seller photos. No raw sold page meeting the batch standard was entered, so raw value remains an open research item here. [3][4][5]
Authenticity checks
AnalysisCompare the card against the official 151 set reference and exact catalog card: MEW/sv3-5, 170/165, Illustration Rare, and Mitsuhiro Arita artwork. Check front and back photos, texture, borders, edges, surface, and whether any seller description mixes it with Stellar Crown. For slabs, verify the cert and label, then compare the holder and card images rather than relying on the cert alone. Do not use destructive tests. Copied cert numbers exist, so a database match is only one authentication step. [1][3]
