A complete PSA 10 Neo Genesis set costs $209,309 as of July 10, 2026 — every tracked chase card across both printings (1st Edition and Unlimited), priced at gem-mint fair market value from real eBay and Fanatics sold comps. That is the number, and the rest of this page is the itemized bill: what every holo costs in PSA 10 per printing, why the set's most famous card contributes exactly zero dollars to the total, and what the same set runs in PSA 9 — the only grade where Neo Genesis is actually completable today.

The total is computed live by our Neo Genesis 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 Neo Genesis pop report.

How Much Does a Complete PSA 10 Neo Genesis Set Cost?

$209,309. That covers the 25 Neo Genesis printings our index tracks with live comps across the nineteen-card holo run (#1–#19) in 1st Edition and Unlimited. Neo Genesis opened the Johto era in 2000 with the most condition-sensitive print run WOTC ever shipped, and 2026 has repriced it violently — here is the same basket over the last six months:

The basket is up 62% since February — $128,995 to $209,309 — with the whole move landing in one violent spring: the April print was $211,253, and the index has held near that level since. Complete-set cost is a price series, not a demand series — moves this size on a set this thin are usually two or three sleepers repricing at once (Heracross, Pichu, and Meganium #10 did exactly that this spring). For the population side of the same coin — how few of these gems exist — see the Neo Genesis pop report.

What Does Every Neo Genesis Holo Cost in PSA 10?

The itemized bill: all nineteen chase cards, both printings side by side. Every card links to its live price page; the footer row is the complete-run total. A dash means that printing has no tracked PSA 10 comp in the archive — and Neo Genesis has more dashes than any set this valuable. Three 1st Edition cards (Lugia #9, Slowking #14, Typhlosion #17) and ten Unlimited printings have no recent verified gem sale at all. Those are real gaps in the market, not gaps in the data — and they mean the true all-nineteen totals are higher than the footer numbers.

Read the dashes as a difficulty rating. In 1st Edition, 16 of nineteen cards have a live gem market; in Unlimited, just 9 do. On a 2000-era print run this condition-sensitive, plenty of these cards go a year or more between PSA 10 sales — the table prices what actually trades, and stays silent where the market does.

How Much Is a PSA 10 1st Edition Lugia?

There is no recent verified PSA 10 comp — in either printing. The era-defining grail of Neo Genesis contributes zero dollars to the $209,309 total, because no gem has crossed the tape recently enough to price honestly. What the archive does show: 1st Edition Lugia PSA 9s trade at $12,500, and even the Unlimited PSA 9 runs $1,999. Only 45 PSA 10 1st Edition Lugias exist from 6,905 total gradings — a 0.65% gem rate, the full census is in the pop report — so when one does surface, it sets its own price. Here is the ghost itself, empty chart and all:

That empty chart is the honest answer to the search query. Any "PSA 10 Lugia price" you see quoted elsewhere is an asking price or a stale private-sale rumor, not a verified comp. The card's full sales history across grades lives in the Lugia investing guide— and for set-builders, the practical takeaway is simpler: a "complete" PSA 10 Neo Genesis set is an aspiration, not a checkout cart. The bill on this page is what the buildable part costs.

What Is the Most Expensive Neo Genesis Card in PSA 10?

The 1st Edition Heracross #6, at $24,847 — a pop-27 card that repriced violently in 2026 and now carries 12% of the entire set cost. Add the two Pichus (1st Edition and the pop-21 Unlimited), Feraligatr #5, and Meganium #10, and the top five printings are 41% of the bill. That is the interesting thing about Neo Genesis: unlike Base Set, where one Charizard is 61% of the total, no single card dominates here — the cost lives in a rotating cast of sub-30-pop sleepers. Here is the current king, live:

The flat cost curve cuts both ways. You can own every other tracked 1st Edition gem — all 15 of them — for about $84,930, and no single miss wrecks the project. But it also means Neo Genesis exposure is genuinely a set bet, not a one-card bet: the Neo Genesis investing guide ranks every printing by the same live data.

How Much Does a PSA 9 Neo Genesis Set Cost Instead?

$23,019 for the complete nineteen-card 1st Edition run in PSA 9 — and unlike the gem build, this one is actually finishable: every card, Lugia included, has a live PSA 9 market. The catch is that the set's grail hierarchy reasserts itself one grade down — the $12,500 Lugia alone is 54% of the PSA 9 bill. The tracked Unlimited printings run just $4,770 in PSA 9. The PSA 9 vs PSA 10 guide covers when that discount is a gift, and the PSA 10 value calculatorprices any single card's premium.

What Is the Cheapest Way to Complete a Neo Genesis Set?

Four builds, in ascending order of pain:

  • PSA 9 1st Edition run — $23,019. The only complete build on the menu: all nineteen cards, stamp included, with the Lugia at $12,500 doing most of the damage.
  • Unlimited PSA 10 run — $24,340 for the 9 priced cards. Looks cheap, is a trap: ten of nineteen Unlimited printings have no gem comp at all, and 69% of the priced total is one card — the pop-21 Unlimited Pichu at $16,800.
  • Cheapest gem path — $91,287. One PSA 10 of every card, whichever printing is cheaper — still short the three cards (Lugia #9, Slowking #14, Typhlosion #17) with no gem comp in either printing.
  • 1st Edition PSA 10 run — $109,777+. The trophy build: 16 priced cards, three ghosts on top, and a Lugia that will cost whatever the one seller in the room says it costs.

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

Neo Genesis Cost FAQ

How much does a complete PSA 10 Neo Genesis set cost?

$209,309 as of July 10, 2026, across the 25 tracked printings with live comps — the 1st Edition run at $109,777, the Unlimited at $24,340. No 1st Edition Lugia PSA 10 has a recent verified comp, so the true complete number is higher.

How much is a PSA 10 1st Edition Lugia?

There is no recent verified PSA 10 sale — the card is a ghost in the sold-comp archive. Only 45 PSA 10s exist from 6,905 total gradings (a 0.65% gem rate, per the pop report), and PSA 9 copies trade at $12,500.

How much is a complete Neo Genesis set in PSA 9?

$23,019 for the full nineteen-card 1st Edition run — the only build that is actually completable today, with the $12,500 Lugia at 54% of the bill. The tracked Unlimited PSA 9 printings total $4,770.

What is the most expensive Neo Genesis card?

Among cards with verified PSA 10 comps, the 1st Edition Heracross #6 at $24,847 (pop 27) — 12% of the complete-set bill. A 1st Edition Lugia PSA 10 would top it instantly if one traded. Nothing here is financial advice.


Keep the number live: the Neo Genesis index re-prices this entire page daily, the WOTC set-cost guide puts all fifteen sets side by side, and the Neo Genesis pop report shows how few of these gems exist at all.
