TL;DR
A PSA 10 Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet AR (103/098) costs ¥5,400 to ¥5,500 on Japanese marketplaces today, while a raw copy starts at ¥300. That is an 18× premium for the grade, and the single PSA 9 in stock is priced above every PSA 10 — this is a card where you buy the slab or the ¥300 raw, nothing in between.
- Cheapest PSA 10 in stock: ¥5,400 (US$37.26) on Yahoo! Flea Market; five slabs sit within ¥100 of each other.
- Raw copies run ¥300–¥780, so the gem-mint label is 94% of what you pay.
- The one PSA 9 listed at ¥6,980 is more expensive than any PSA 10 — skip it.
- Mercari authentication adds ¥1,700 to a raw card and only makes sense if you want a checked-genuine raw, not a graded one.
As of September 2026, The Glory of Team Rocket art rares have settled into a tight band: sellers on Mercari and Yahoo! Flea Market are quoting the Wobbuffet slab within a hundred yen of each other, which tells you the market has already agreed on a number.
This page reads every in-stock Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet AR 103/098 listing on Japanese marketplaces today, compares the PSA 10 price with PSA 9 and raw copies, and walks through how to get the copy you want shipped from Japan.

A note on sourcing: the Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet 103/098 prices above are the asking prices on each item page as of 2026-09-20, and USD is the conversion the page displayed at checkout. All copies are the Japanese print of the Pokémon TCG[5]. Condition notes come from the seller’s own Mercari / Yahoo! Flea Market condition field (translated); Suruga-ya rows are shop stock and carry none. Listing titles are in Japanese — the tiles below link to each copy. Mercari supports overseas buyers via partner proxy services[3].
What stands out is how flat the PSA 10 side is: ¥5,400, ¥5,480 and three copies at ¥5,500. Four of the five come from Yahoo! Flea Market sellers, and only the Mercari copy at ¥5,480 offers Mercari authentication — which matters less for a slab, because the PSA label is the authentication. The raw side is the opposite of flat: ¥300 for an unused copy on Mercari, ¥550 for one with authentication enabled, and ¥780 from Suruga-ya’s shop stock. Wobbuffet is the comic-relief art rare of the Team Rocket set, so bulk supply of raw copies is enormous and the price floor is essentially the pack pull value.

Everything on this page refers to the Japanese-language Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet, collector number 103/098 in The Glory of Team Rocket. An English print of the same artwork is a different card with its own number, set name and market[5], as are promo versions and full-art variants from other sets. Match the number on the slab label before you compare any price.
Is Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet PSA 10 worth 18.0× the raw card?
Eighteen times the raw price sounds absurd until you look at what ¥5,100 actually buys: a sealed PSA holder with the cert number, and the certainty that the corners, centering and surface passed PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6]. For a ¥300 card, sending it to PSA yourself costs more than the finished slab — grading fees, shipping to and from the grader and the weeks of waiting all exceed the gap. That is why the market prices the slab where it does: the premium is the grading cost with the risk of a 9 removed. The PSA 9 at ¥6,980 is the anomaly in the table. A seller has priced a lower grade above every gem-mint copy, probably anchored to an old sale. Ignore it.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥5,400 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥300 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy a raw copy that offers Mercari authentication | raw price + ¥1,700 | Authentication[1] is seller-enabled; the cheapest raw listing today does not offer it, so compare the next ones in the table above. |
If you only want the artwork in a binder, the ¥300 raw copy is the right buy and the difference funds your next Team Rocket card. If you want the card to hold value in a collection or trade, the slab is the only version that carries a number a buyer in another country will trust. Mercari authentication[1] on the ¥550 raw copy checks that it is genuine, but it does not grade it — treat it as insurance for the raw route, not a discount on the graded one.
Getting a Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet AR 103/098 shipped from Japan
Buying a slab out of Japan is a five-step job when a proxy handles the Japanese side. Here is the sequence for this card.
- Step 1 — Open the listing on OneMall. Every tile below links straight to the OneMall item page for that exact copy, so you skip the Japanese-only Mercari app entirely.
- Step 2 — Check the slab label in the photos. Read the collector number on the PSA label before you pay; the same Pokémon often exists at several numbers in the same set.
- Step 3 — Add authentication if the seller offers it. For raw cards on Mercari, tick Mercari authentication at checkout (+¥1,700)[1][2]; the card is inspected before it leaves Japan.
- Step 4 — Pay the first invoice. Item price plus the service fee (as low as ¥200 per order) — international shipping is a separate second payment once the card is weighed at the warehouse.
- Step 5 — Consolidate and ship. Cards sit in free storage for 90 days, the first six orders consolidate free, and one padded parcel to the US goes out by ECMS or DHL.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a PSA 10 Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet AR worth?
In-stock Japanese listings on 2026-09-20 price the PSA 10 at ¥5,400 to ¥5,500 (about US$37–38 before shipping). Five slabs sit inside that ¥100 band, which is as close to a consensus price as a card gets.
Why is the PSA 9 more expensive than the PSA 10?
One seller listed a PSA 9 at ¥6,980, above every PSA 10 in stock. It is a mispriced listing, not a market signal; PSA 9 copies of low-value art rares normally sell well below the 10.
Is it worth grading a raw Wobbuffet 103/098 myself?
No. The raw card is ¥300 and the finished PSA 10 slab is ¥5,400, so the entire gap is grading cost and risk. Buying a slab that already passed is cheaper than submitting one.
Can I buy this card from Mercari Japan if I live in the US?
Yes, through a proxy such as OneMall: it places the Mercari order to a Tokyo address, then ships to you by ECMS or DHL. Mercari’s own help pages describe overseas purchases via partner services[3].
How many PSA 10 Team Rocket’s Wobbuffet 103/098 exist?
The authoritative count is PSA’s own Population Report[6], which updates as submissions clear; this page deliberately does not copy a number that will drift. The live-supply proxy on 2026-09-20: 17 PSA 10 slabs in stock across Mercari, Yahoo! Flea Market and Suruga-ya, against 1 PSA 9 and 27 raw copies. A card with far more slabs than raws in stock has been graded heavily.
