VALUE

What is Dark Slowking #9 from Team Rocket Returns worth?

Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Dark Slowking #9 (Team Rocket Returns) carries a market reference of $95.94 USD for the holofoil 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 $395.00 (PSA 8).
