In late September 2026, Team Rocket’s Houndoom was the art rare from The Glory of Team Rocket whose raw copies refused to drop to pocket change, compressing the PSA 10 premium to under five times. By 2026-10-30 a ¥580 Suruga-ya raw has widened that to 9.14×.

The figures are listed prices, not sold prices: each was read from the live item page for that Team Rocket’s Houndoom copy on 2026-10-30, with USD as the item page’s own checkout conversion. Everything shown is the Japanese-language print of the Pokémon TCG[5]. Condition is the seller’s Mercari / Yahoo! Flea Market condition field, translated; Suruga-ya is shop stock with no condition field. Seller titles are Japanese, and the tiles further down open each listing. Mercari allows overseas purchases only through partner proxy services[3].
On 2026-09-29 two Yahoo! Flea Market slabs at ¥4,400 and ¥5,100 undercut the Mercari trio at ¥5,180–¥5,300, and Suruga-ya’s shop copy at ¥980 was the cheapest raw. On 2026-10-30 the slabs in the listings below are a ¥5,300 Yahoo! Flea Market copy (seller condition: no obvious damage or stains, no authentication option) and a ¥5,500 Mercari copy described as unused, with Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) available; the raws are a ¥580 Suruga-ya shop copy (pre-owned), a ¥999 Mercari copy (nearly unused, authentication available) and a ¥1,132 Mercari copy (pre-owned).

Scope: Japanese Team Rocket’s Houndoom 100/098 (The Glory of Team Rocket). The English-language print of this illustration has a different collector number and set name and is priced in a separate market, so the figures here do not transfer[5]. Promo copies and full-art variants from other sets are likewise different cards — the number on the PSA label is what to match.
PSA 10 vs raw Team Rocket’s Houndoom: what a 9.14× premium buys
With the cheapest slab at ¥5,300 (Yahoo! Flea Market) and the cheapest raw at ¥580, the gap is ¥4,720 — a 9.14× multiple. In the 2026-09-29 sweep the same comparison was ¥4,400 against ¥980, about 4.5×, because Houndoom’s raw copies were unusually firm. The ¥580 copy is pre-owned Suruga-ya shop stock; against the ¥999 Mercari raw the ¥5,300 slab is 5.31×. PSA’s GEM MT 10 standard[6] is the same for every card, so grading fees and two-way shipping are roughly fixed, and with no PSA 9 in the listings a self-submission that misses 10 returns a card with no visible market for the grade.
| Route | Cost today (JPY, before shipping) | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Buy the cheapest PSA 10 slab | ¥5,300 | Grade already locked in; you pay the full premium, nothing to wait for. |
| Buy the cheapest raw copy as-is | ¥580 | Cheapest way to own the artwork; condition is whatever the photos show. |
| Buy a raw copy that offers Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity) | raw price + ¥1,700 | Authentication[1] is seller-enabled; the cheapest raw listing (¥580 Suruga-ya) does not offer it; the ¥999 Mercari raw does. |
Buy the ¥5,300 Yahoo! Flea Market slab if you want the card graded at the lowest listed price; the ¥5,500 Mercari slab is ¥200 more and is the slab with the Mercari official authentication option (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity). Buy the ¥580 Suruga-ya raw if you want the artwork, or the ¥999 Mercari raw with Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)[1] added if you want an ungraded copy submitted for that check, for about ¥2,699 all in. Grading a raw yourself only pays if it comes back a 10; a lower grade has no visible market here.
How to order Team Rocket’s Houndoom AR 100/098 from a Japanese seller
Here is how the purchase runs end to end for this card, with the choices that matter at each step.
- Step 1 — Pick the copy, not the average. Use the table above: the cheapest PSA 10 in the listings (checked 2026-10-30) is ¥5,300 on Yahoo! Flea Market; anything above the range there is paying for a seller’s optimism.
- Step 2 — Order through OneMall. Click the tile, add to cart, and a Japan-side team places the Mercari, Yahoo! Flea Market or Suruga-ya order for you — sellers who write 海外発送不可 (no overseas shipping) still ship because the address is a Tokyo warehouse.
- Step 3 — Optional Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity). Raw copies that show the authentication option can be checked for +¥1,700[1][2]; a PSA slab already carries its grade on the label.
- Step 4 — First payment, then wait for arrival photos. Ask for unboxing photos if you want to see the slab corners before it flies.
- Step 5 — Second payment for international shipping. A single slab is light; batch it with other cards inside the 90-day free storage (30 days after consolidation) window and pay one shipping fee.

Conclusion
In September, Team Rocket’s Houndoom AR was the rare case where the raw card held its own and the PSA 10 premium was modest. On 2026-10-30 a ¥580 raw copy has widened the gap: the ¥5,300 Yahoo! Flea Market slab is the lowest-priced route to the grade (the Mercari slab is ¥5,500), and the ¥580 or ¥999 raw is the buy for the artwork. See every Team Rocket’s Houndoom 100/098 PSA 10 listing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a PSA 10 Team Rocket’s Houndoom AR sell for?
The PSA 10 listings on this page ask ¥5,300 (Yahoo! Flea Market) and ¥5,500 (Mercari) as of 2026-10-30, about US$37–38 before shipping. On 2026-09-29 the range was ¥4,400–¥5,300.
How big is the PSA 10 premium on this card?
On 2026-10-30 the cheapest slab (¥5,300) is 9.14× the cheapest raw (¥580) and 5.31× the next raw (¥999). In the 2026-09-29 sweep it was about 4.5×, because raw copies then cost ¥980–¥1,112.
Are there any PSA 9 copies available?
None in the listings re-checked on 2026-10-30, and the 2026-09-29 sweep found twenty PSA 10 slabs and no PSA 9. If one appears, expect it to price well under the ¥5,300 slab floor.
Which listing offers Mercari official authentication (OneMall submits the item; Mercari official issues the conclusion; OneMall does not guarantee authenticity)?
The ¥999 Mercari raw copy and the ¥5,500 Mercari slab both have the option enabled, the ¥5,300 Yahoo! Flea Market slab does not; it adds ¥1,700 per card and is paid by the buyer[1].
What is the PSA 10 population for Team Rocket’s Houndoom 100/098?
This page does not quote a population count. PSA publishes the census in its Population Report[6], and the number moves with every submission batch, so a figure copied here would be stale within weeks. What the market shows instead is live supply: 20 PSA 10 slabs, 0 PSA 9 slabs and 6 raw copies of Team Rocket’s Houndoom 100/098 in stock on 2026-09-29 — the ratio of slabs to raws is the practical read on how heavily the card has been graded.
