Gastly in the Chinese-only set codes is 3 products, with Collect 151 alone printing 3 of the 7 cards. Gastly [Poke Ball] #76 leads at $36.65 as a PSA 10, with every priced card inside a band $11 wide.
What makes the shape worth reading is where the cards sit. 3 of the 7 Gastly cards come out of Collect 151 at #92, and that one line supplies 1 of the 2 ranked cards. The top of the list is not from that line at all: Gastly [Poke Ball] from Dark Crystal Blaze takes first place at $36.65.
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 — 151C, csv5C and cs3aC. That trailing letter 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. 7 Gastly cards exist across these sets and 2 have a PSA 10 price on record. The 5 that do not are Gastly [Master Ball] #92, Gastly [Reverse] #92 and 3 more — none of them has a graded sold record yet, and a card with no price 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 Gastly 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 two, ranked
1. Gastly [Poke Ball] #76 — Dark Crystal Blaze (csv5C) — $36.65
Raw $1.49 · grade 9 $12.13
The top card of the ranking and the print that interrupts the Collect 151 run. At $1.49 raw against $36.65 graded it multiplies 24.6 times.
2. Gastly #92 — Collect 151 (151C) — $26
Raw $1.99 · grade 9 $13.05
At the foot of the ranking and a card from Collect 151. Its raw price of $1.99 multiplies 13.1 times into the graded value. This is the Collect 151 print at #92, the set where all of the original 151 Pokémon have a card.
What the ranking shows
Gastly splits into 1 bands across 2 priced cards, and the top band is where the ranking is decided.
| Band | Cards | Combined PSA 10 value | Share of total |
|---|---|---|---|
| $26 – $37 — ranked 1 to 2 | 2 | $63 | 100.0% |
| Every priced Gastly card | 2 | $63 | 100% |
Two further patterns run across the whole group.
One card holds most of the value. At $36.65 it is 58 percent of everything the character is worth in these sets, and the combined total of the other 1 ranked cards does not reach it.
A Kanto entry breaks the run. Gastly is one of the original 151 Pokémon, so Collect 151 prints it, and that print lands at number 2. Characters from later generations have no entry in that set and therefore no card that can break a Gem Pack run.
Where Gastly is printed
| Product | Set code | Gastly cards | With a PSA 10 value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Collect 151 | 151C | 3 | 1 |
| Dark Crystal Blaze | csv5C | 3 | 1 |
| cs3aC | cs3aC | 1 | 0 |
| Total | 7 | 2 |
Collect 151 supplies 3 of the 7 Gastly cards and 42 percent of the $63 total, because the expensive cards are inside that line. Collect 151 prints Gastly as one of the original 151, and those prints are priced generously relative to the Gem Pack foils. 5 of the 7 cards carry no price at all, so the checklist in the table above is longer than the ranking it supports. If the goal is the group rather than the single card, completing a Simplified Chinese set sets out what a full run involves.
If you want one card
- One card, no budget limit: Gastly [Poke Ball] #76 from Dark Crystal Blaze at $36.65. It is the highest-priced Gastly card in these sets.
- The second line: Gastly #92 from Collect 151 at $26, the second-highest Gastly card in these sets and the next step down from the top.
- The Kanto print: Gastly #92 from Collect 151 at $26 — the character’s entry in the set of the original 151, and the only Gastly card that exists in that product.
Frequently asked questions
How many Gastly cards are there in Simplified Chinese?
7, across 3 products. 2 of the 7 carry a tracked PSA 10 value.
What is the most valuable Gastly card in Simplified Chinese?
Gastly [Poke Ball] #76 from Dark Crystal Blaze, tracked at $36.65 as a PSA 10 and $1.49 raw. It is the only Gastly card in these sets above $26, and it holds 58 percent of the character’s combined value.
Why is there a Collect 151 Gastly card on the list?
Because Gastly is one of the original 151 Pokémon and Collect 151 prints every one of them. It lands at number 2 at $26. Characters from later generations are not in that set, so they have no Kanto print to break a Gem Pack run.
Is a PSA 10 worth the premium over a raw card?
Raw-to-graded multiples across the list run from 13.1 to 24.6, so on most cards the graded premium is real. Where the multiple is lowest, the raw price already carries most of the value. Grading outcomes are never certain, and nothing here is a prediction about what any individual card will grade at.
Do the Collect 151 prints come in more than one treatment?
Yes. A number in Collect 151 exists as a plain card, a reverse holo and a Master Ball reverse holo. Only the plain print usually trades enough to have a price attached. The series guide explains the two reverse holo patterns.
Other character rankings
