A complete PSA 10 Aquapolis set costs $185,629 as of July 10, 2026 — the live level of our Aquapolis market index across 35 tracked constituents: the 32 H-series holos that make it one of the longest chase checklists WOTC ever printed, the tracked non-holo rares, and the three Crystal secret rares that carry the money. One printing, one column — Aquapolis is an e-Series set, so there is no 1st Edition to stamp-chase. But the honest headline is what that number hides: this is the least-liquid set in the entire WOTC wave, and on Aquapolis the hard part of completion is not the bill — it is finding sellers at all.

The total is computed live by our Aquapolis market index and moves with every verified sale — this article re-prices monthly. It is one chapter of the full WOTC set-cost guide, and its population twin is the Aquapolis pop report— the only set in the series where every population count is still a modeled estimate.

How Much Does a Complete PSA 10 Aquapolis Set Cost?

$185,629. That is where the index prices the 35 Aquapolis constituents it tracks with live comps, and it has been a violent six months for a supposedly sleepy set — up 79% since February:

The basket climbed from $103,453 in February to a $189,704 peak in June before easing to $185,629. Most of that move is one card: the Crystal Lugia re-priced from $16,200 in spring 2025 to back-to-back April 2026 sales of $78,000 and $72,000. On a set where our entire archive holds 157 verified PSA 10 sales — total, ever, across 40 tracked cards — two prints can move the whole index. That is not noise to apologize for; it is what a thin market looks like when demand shows up.

What Does Every Aquapolis Card Cost in PSA 10?

The itemized bill — all 40 tracked rows, one printing, scanned top to bottom of the checklist. Every card links to its live price page. A dash means no tracked PSA 10 comp exists in the archive: four H-series holos (Electrode, Houndoom, Tyranitar, Umbreon) have never recorded a verified gem sale. Those are real gaps in the market, not gaps in the data — and they mean the true complete-run number is higherthan the footer total. (One bookkeeping note: #149 appears twice because listings titled "Crystal Lugia" and plain "Lugia" resolve to the same secret rare — the plain-titled bucket has PSA 9 comps only.)

Aquapolis: PSA 10 and PSA 9 fair market value for every tracked card, July 10, 2026. Single print run — no 1st Edition exists. Real sold comps only; dashes are cards with no verified gem sale on record.

Read the footer honestly: the rows with live gem comps sum to $91,314, while the index level is $185,629 — a $94,315gap. The two numbers measure different things. The index carries each card at its most recent monthly sale; the table prices each card at the median of its last five gem sales. When a card's latest prints run double its five-sale median — exactly what the Crystal Lugia just did — the index runs ahead of the table. On a liquid set the two agree within rounding error. On Aquapolis, the spread is the finding: prices are moving faster than the comp history can average.

One more row worth a note: Slowking #H22's verified holo gem sale — $3,840 in October 2025, against a $284PSA 9 — is the clean picture of the e-Series gem premium once comps are title-verified. Treat every cell as "last verified sale," not "what you'd pay tomorrow."

How Much Are the Aquapolis Crystal Cards Worth?

$43,935 for the three Crystals — 48% of the entire itemized bill. Crystal Lugia #149 at $36,000 is 19% of the index by itself, Crystal Nidoking #150 sits at $5,880, and Crystal Kingdra #148 at $2,055. Like every WOTC set, Aquapolis is grail-heavy — the difference is that here the grails are secret rares with single-digit sale histories. The card that is a fifth of the number, live:

And the Crystal Kingdra is the whole liquidity thesis in one panel: a five-sale median of $2,055, but its most recent print — March 2026 — crossed at $9,900. Nearly 5x the median, on the latest tape:

The top non-Crystal is Espeon #H9 at $11,1006% of the index and up 45.3% in the last month alone, riding the same Eeveelution demand that prices its Umbreon partner's set. The bitter joke: Umbreon #H29 is one of the four holos with no PSA 10 sale on record at any price. The full card-by-card ranking is in the Aquapolis investing guide.

How Much Does a PSA 9 Aquapolis Set Cost?

$34,634 for the tracked run in PSA 9 — well under half the itemized gem bill, and unlike the 10s, the 9s actually circulate. This is the sane build for a set defined by e-reader dot-code borders that scuff if you look at them wrong. The usual grade-gap logic still applies — the PSA 9 vs PSA 10 guide covers when the discount is a gift — but note the Aquapolis wrinkle: on thin-comp cards the gap stretches to extremes (that Slowking again: $284 in 9 versus $3,840 in 10 — a 13x premium). Before paying any gem premium here, run the card through the PSA 10 value calculator.

What Is the Cheapest Way to Complete an Aquapolis Set?

Three builds, in ascending order of patience required:

  • PSA 9 run — $34,634. The same checklist, one grade down, at prices where the median card is pocket money. The only build you can realistically finish in under a year.
  • The sub-$1,000 gem core — 19 of the 35 priced cards. Median tracked gem: $795. Everything outside the Crystals, Espeon, and a handful of top holos is cheap in dollars — Aquapolis has the era's longest checklist, so the cost per card is among the lowest in the WOTC wave. The constraint is supply: with 157 gem sales ever recorded, most cards surface a few times a year.
  • The full gem build — $91,314 on paper, plus the four ghosts. Save the Crystals for last (48% of the bill), and accept that Electrode, Houndoom, Tyranitar, Umbreon have no gem tape at all — you will be setting the market price when one appears.

Whichever build you pick, the live deal feed surfaces below-market graded Aquapolis inventory across Collector Crypt, Courtyard, and Phygitals, and the live deal feed is where the scanner surfaces the copies set-builders are hunting.

Aquapolis Cost FAQ

How much does a complete PSA 10 Aquapolis set cost?

$185,629 as of July 10, 2026, per the live Aquapolis index. The 35 cards with current verified gem comps itemize to $91,314— the gap between the two numbers is thin-market repricing, led by the Crystal Lugia's April 2026 sales at $78,000 and $72,000.

What is the most expensive Aquapolis card?

Crystal Lugia #149, at a $36,000 PSA 10 fair market value — 19% of the whole set's cost. Crystal Nidoking #150 ($5,880) and Espeon #H9 ($11,100) follow.

How much does a PSA 9 Aquapolis set cost?

$34,634 for the tracked run — the same cards at a fraction of gem cost, and far easier to actually source.

Does Aquapolis have 1st Edition cards?

No. Aquapolis had a single print run — no e-Series set (Expedition, Aquapolis, Skyridge) was ever printed with a 1st Edition stamp. Any listing claiming a 1st Edition Aquapolis card is mislabeled at best. Full details in the Aquapolis pop report.


Keep the number live: the Aquapolis index re-prices this entire page daily, the WOTC set-cost guide puts all fifteen sets side by side, and the Aquapolis pop report explains why nobody — including us — can tell you exactly how many of these gems exist.
