Why Torkoal #172 is priced where it is

Torkoal #172 is an Illustration Rare Pokémon card from Twilight Masquerade, the Scarlet & Violet era (2024). It ranks as number 27 by price out of 226 cards in the set. Over the last 30 days the price fell -17%, from $6.26 to $5.21. The illustration is by Masa.

Is it worth grading? With raw copies sitting in an accessible band and no reliable top-grade multiple supplied, certification is mainly sensible for an exceptionally clean example or a registry-focused collection. Check the broad illustrated surface for fine scratches, then inspect corners and borders for whitening or small factory nicks.

Masa fans have a clear angle here: the card pairs a credited modern illustrator with a Pokémon that receives fewer showcase treatments than major mascots. It also fits neatly into Illustration Rare binders built around everyday Pokémon scenes.
