Here are the top 5 Lechonk cards in Simplified Chinese, ranked by PSA 10 value.
Quick answer
CardSpicy (cardspicy.com) ranks the Lechonk cards of the Dragon Ball card games by recorded PSA 10 sale value rather than by asking price, and lists every Lechonk printing that has a tracked graded sale.
Lechonk has nine cards in the Chinese-only sets and seven of them carry a tracked PSA 10 value. Together they add to $279.34, from $50.00 at the top down to $36.78 — a top-to-bottom ratio of 1.36 to 1. The prices are not what makes this list unusual. The grade 9 column is.
On six of the seven cards here, a grade 9 copy is tracked at between 33.0 and 34.2 percent of the PSA 10 value. On the seventh — #137 from Dark Crystal Blaze — it is tracked at $36.00 against $50.00, or 72.0 percent. A grade 9 copy of that one card is worth 78 cents less than a PSA 10 copy of the card at the bottom of this ranking. It is the single sharpest split between the top two grades anywhere in the character’s catalogue.
How this list was built
Three rules, applied in this order.
- The card has to sit in a Chinese-only set. Every card below carries a set code ending in C — CBB1C for Gem Pack Vol. 1, csv5C for Dark Crystal Blaze. The trailing C marks a Simplified Chinese print run, and it is the dependable way to tell a Chinese-only card from a card that merely happens to be printed in Chinese. Reading a Chinese set code from end to end covers the whole system.
- The card has to have a tracked PSA 10 value. Nine Lechonk cards exist in these sets and seven have a PSA 10 price on record. The two that do not are listed at the end of this page. A card with no graded record cannot be ranked.
- The card has to be a Pokémon card. Sealed product, trainer cards and energy are out of scope.
One exclusion applies here as it does to every character ranking we publish. Promo printings of Lechonk exist in Chinese and they are not on this list. Promo numbering is shared across the Chinese branches — the same promo number appears in Traditional Chinese product as well — so a promo number on its own cannot establish which branch a card came from. Everything below sits inside a numbered set whose code ends in C, which is unambiguous.
The top 5, ranked
5. Lechonk #1601 — Gem Pack Vol. 1 (CBB1C) — $37.10
Raw $1.69 · grade 9 $12.59
The plain print of the group. Raw copies are tracked at $1.69 against $37.10 graded, a multiple of 22.0. Its grade 9 record of $12.59 is the second lowest of the seven priced cards, and its grade 9 share of 33.9 percent is almost exactly the group’s norm. It sits 8 cents above the card ranked sixth — the narrowest gap in this ranking — and $1.32 below the card ranked fourth.
4. Lechonk [Stars] #1603 — Gem Pack Vol. 1 (CBB1C) — $38.42
Raw $2.00 · grade 9 $13.06
The stars foil, and the third print of the run. Raw copies are tracked at $2.00 and grade 9 at $13.06, a multiple of 19.2. Its grade 9 record is the second highest of the six cards that are not #137. It sits 46 cents below the card ranked third and $1.32 above the card ranked fifth.
3. Lechonk #110 — Dark Crystal Blaze (csv5C) — $38.88
Raw $1.99 · grade 9 $12.84
The lower-numbered of the two Dark Crystal Blaze Lechonk cards, and the third most valuable Lechonk card in the language. Its multiple from raw to graded is 19.5, and its grade 9 share is 33.0 percent — the lowest of the seven priced cards. It sits $2.26 below the card ranked second and 46 cents above the card ranked fourth.
2. Lechonk [Stamped] #1605 — Gem Pack Vol. 1 (CBB1C) — $41.14
Raw $2.96 · grade 9 $14.07
The stamped foil, and the highest of the five Gem Pack prints. Its raw price of $2.96 is the second highest of the seven priced cards and its grade 9 record of $14.07 is the highest of the six cards that are not #137, which puts its grade 9 share at 34.2 percent — the widest of the six. It sits $8.86 below the card at number one and $2.26 above the card ranked third.
1. Lechonk #137 — Dark Crystal Blaze (csv5C) — $50.00
Raw $3.50 · grade 9 $36.00
The most valuable Lechonk card in Simplified Chinese, and the only one at $50. Its grade 9 record of $36.00 is more than two and a half times the next grade 9 figure in the list, and it is 78 cents below the lowest PSA 10 value here. Raw copies are tracked at $3.50, the highest in the group. From raw to PSA 10 the step is 14.3 times, the narrowest on this list. It holds 17.9 percent of the character against an even share of 14.3 percent.
What the ranking shows
Lechonk is nine cards across two Chinese-only products, and seven of them carry a value.
| Band | Cards | Combined PSA 10 value | Share of total |
|---|---|---|---|
| $50 and above — ranked 1 | 1 | $50.00 | 17.9% |
| $38 to $42 — ranked 2 to 4 | 3 | $118.44 | 42.4% |
| $36 to $38 — ranked 5 to 7 | 3 | $110.90 | 39.7% |
| Every priced Lechonk card | 7 | $279.34 | 100% |
Two points run across the whole group.
One card breaks the grade 9 column away from the rest, and the other six sit in a band barely a point wide. The five Gem Pack prints and the two Dark Crystal Blaze cards are priced within 1.2 points of each other on grade 9 — 33.0, 33.9, 33.9, 33.9, 34.0 and 34.2 percent — while #137 sits at 72.0 percent. A gap that size between one card and its own group is a difference in how the middle grade is bought, not in how much the card is worth at the top. Looking across the characters in these sets with six or more tracked PSA 10 values, seven show the same shape: one card whose grade 9 value is above sixty percent of its PSA 10 figure while every other priced card stays below forty percent. Lechonk’s peak is the third highest of those seven. Our grading guide covers why a single result can land either side of a recorded average.
The row of multiples runs backwards at the top and forwards at the bottom. From raw to PSA 10 the steps are 14.3, 13.9, 19.5, 19.2, 22.0, 22.2 and 22.7 down the list. #137 and #1605 are both cheap on the multiple because they are the two most expensive raw cards here — $3.50 and $2.96 against $1.62 to $2.00 for everything else — so there is less room left for grading to move them. From fourth place down the multiple climbs at every position. What the two ends of that column describe is a top of the list that raw buyers already chase and a bottom of the list that only graded buyers do. The volume-by-volume guide sets out how the Gem Pack groups are built.
Where Lechonk is printed
| Product | Set code | Lechonk cards | Priced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gem Pack Vol. 1 | CBB1C | 5 | 5 |
| Dark Crystal Blaze | csv5C | 4 | 2 |
| Total | 9 | 7 |
The counts are cards, not artworks. Gem Pack Vol. 1 gives Lechonk one group running #1601 to #1605 — five finishes, and every one of them carries a tracked value. Dark Crystal Blaze contributes the other four as two cards rather than as a run of finishes: #110 and #137. Only #110 has extra foils in that set, a Poké Ball and a Master Ball printing, and those two printings are the only Lechonk cards in these sets with no tracked value — which is why the Dark Crystal Blaze column shows four cards and two prices.
Lechonk is a ninth-generation Paldea Pokémon, so — unlike Charizard and Pikachu — it has no Collect 151 entry, since that set covers only the original 151 characters. One Gem Pack group and two Dark Crystal Blaze cards, plus the two unvalued foils of #110, are the whole of its Chinese-only catalogue.
If you want one card
- One card, no budget limit: #137 from Dark Crystal Blaze, at $50.00. It is the highest tracked Lechonk card in the language, the only one at $50, and the highest raw price and the highest grade 9 record in the group.
- The card with the narrowest step from raw to PSA 10: the stamped foil at #1605, at $41.14 graded and $2.96 raw — a multiple of 13.9, the lowest on this list.
- The middle of the priced list: #110 from Dark Crystal Blaze, at $38.88. It sits $2.26 below the card ranked second and 46 cents above the card ranked fourth, which puts it almost exactly halfway between the top of the group and the run of Gem Pack prints.
Frequently asked questions
Which Lechonk card is the most valuable in Simplified Chinese?
#137 from Dark Crystal Blaze carries the highest tracked PSA 10 value of any Lechonk card in the Chinese-only numbered sets, at $50.00. It is $8.86 above the second card, the only Lechonk card at $50, and the highest on raw copies at $3.50 as well as on grade 9 at $36.00. Chinese promo printings sit outside that comparison, because their numbering is shared between the Chinese branches.
How many Lechonk cards are there in the Chinese-only sets?
Nine, across two products: five from Gem Pack Vol. 1 and four from Dark Crystal Blaze. Seven of the nine carry a tracked PSA 10 value. The two that do not are the Poké Ball and Master Ball printings of the Dark Crystal Blaze card at #110.
What is unusual about the grade 9 value of #137?
It is the only grade 9 figure in the character’s catalogue that comes anywhere near the top grade. #137 is tracked at $36.00 in grade 9 against $50.00 in PSA 10 — 72.0 percent. The other six priced Lechonk cards are tracked between 33.0 and 34.2 percent, a band barely more than a percentage point wide, and the next highest grade 9 figure in the list is $14.07. A recorded figure is an observation at a date, not a forecast, and grading outcomes are never certain.
Is a PSA 10 worth the premium over a raw card?
The multiple falls at the top of this list and rises at the bottom. #137 is tracked at $3.50 raw against $50.00 graded, a multiple of 14.3, and the stamped foil at #1605 is tracked at $2.96 raw against $41.14 graded, a multiple of 13.9. From there the sequence runs 19.5, 19.2, 22.0, 22.2 and 22.7 down to the card at the bottom. The graded prices differ by $13.22; the raw prices differ by $1.88.
How does Lechonk compare with the other characters ranked here?
His seven prints span $36.78 to $50.00, a top-to-bottom ratio of 1.36 to 1, with six of the seven sitting inside $4.36 of one another. The shape that sets the list apart is in the grade 9 column rather than the prices: one card at 72.0 percent of its PSA 10 figure against six between 33.0 and 34.2 percent. For a wider view of the market rather than one character, the ten most popular Chinese-exclusive cards ranks across Pokémon, and the price ladder sorts the same catalogue into bands.
Other character rankings
Each character ranked here has its own page: Pikachu, Charizard, Gengar, Psyduck, Mew, Snorlax, Venusaur, Blastoise, Zapdos, Alakazam and Chansey, plus the nine forms of the Eevee family — Eevee, Umbreon, Sylveon, Espeon, Leafeon, Glaceon, Jolteon, Vaporeon and Flareon.
