Is it worth grading? Here, the exceptional Gem Mint 10 multiple makes professional grading plausible, but only for unusually clean copies. Light scratching, pressure marks, corner softness, or a sliver of whitening can separate a premium example from an ordinary raw promo, so careful prescreening matters greatly.

Saya Tsuruta's illustration gives artist-focused binders a clear reason to include XY143. Magikarp's famously weak game identity contrasts with the promo's high checklist rank, a useful example of character popularity outweighing competitive power.
