VALUE
What is Lt. Surge's Raichu #11 from Gym Challenge worth?
Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Lt. Surge's Raichu #11 (Gym Challenge) carries a market reference of $139.64 USD for the 1stEditionHolofoil printing (TCGplayer market price, as of 2026-09-11). Graded slabs: a graded example is priced per grading company and per grade and can sit far above that raw figure - our own graded marks for this card are charted and tabled below, per grader and grade. Both are references, not offers. The graded copy in our machine carries a Rip Station estimated slab value of $2236.00 (PSA 10).
