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.

Break-even chance of a PSA 10
—
Enter a grading cost to calculate.

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 Lugia V

Lugia V 186/195 is the English alternate/full-art Lugia V from Sword & Shield—Silver Tempest. It is searched because it is the marquee Silver Tempest Lugia illustration card and has high graded-market activity.

Why this card matters

Verified factSilver Tempest was released in the Sword & Shield era with Lugia as a central character for the expansion. The official card list confirms Lugia V at 186/195, and Pokemon’s expansion materials frame Lugia as a key set theme. This card is commonly called the Lugia V alt art, but the research record should still use formal identifiers: English, Silver Tempest, 186/195, Lugia V, and the correct grade or raw condition. [1][2][3]

Identifying the exact version

Verified factThe exact card is English Lugia V 186/195 from Sword & Shield—Silver Tempest. PSA labels it as 2022 Pokemon Sword & Shield Silver Tempest #186 FA/Lugia V Silver Tempest. Do not merge it with Lugia V 138/195, Lugia V 185/195, Lugia VSTAR, rainbow or gold Lugia cards, or Japanese Paradigm Trigger copies. The illustrator credit kawayoo and full-art composition are useful, but the collector number and language settle the identity. [2][3][4]

What moves the price between versions and grades

AnalysisOpened PSA cert pages show a large gap between PSA 10, PSA 9, and PSA 8 sales. Recent PSA 10 rows are above PSA 9 rows by a material amount, while PSA 8 rows sit closer to PSA 9 than PSA 10 in the opened sample. Conduit’s PSA population data shows many graded examples, so high-grade price behavior should be explained through grade, demand, and sale venue, not by claiming the card is low population. [4][5][6][7]

Authenticity checks

Verified factCompare the card to the official Silver Tempest checklist and a known card reference, then inspect number 186/195, English text, full-art treatment, texture, corners, edges, back design, and surface. For slabs, verify the cert page and match the seller’s photos to the physical card and label. Use several checks together, never destructive tests, and remember that a valid-looking cert number can be copied onto a counterfeit insert or listing. [2][8][9]

Identity note: Seed variant 'Alternate Full Art' is retained as the hobby label; PSA labels the card as FA/Lugia V Silver Tempest.
Why collectors look this card up: TCGscreener ranks it #25 most-graded Pokemon card, 46k+ PSA submissions. source 1

What people get wrong about this card

Lugia V 186/195 and Lugia V 138/195 are interchangeable comps.
They are different collector numbers and treatments, so ch02 and ch03 require separate records.
A large PSA 10 population means the card has no demand.
Population is one supply measure only. ch10 requires demand, sales volume, spread, and exit evidence before drawing conclusions.
A raw copy should be valued from PSA 10 sales because it looks clean.
Raw-to-graded assumptions require inspection, grading probabilities, costs, and raw sale alternatives under ch04.
Japanese Paradigm Trigger Lugia prices establish English Silver Tempest value.
Language and release are separate identity fields; Japanese and English sales should not be merged under ch03.
