Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of コスモッグ sell for $51.00, only $0.00 above the $400 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. Even a PSA 9 ($450) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.

Expected value — how often does it need to gem?
| Chance it gems | Expected sale | Expected net (standard fee) |
|---|---|---|
| 25% | $350 | −$99.94 |
| 50% | $250 | −$200 |
| 75% | $151 | −$299 |
Even a miss (a 9) beats selling raw after the standard fee — the gem rate only decides how much you win by.

Tolerances are each company's published centering standard for its top grade; surface, corners and edges must also be clean. Centering is the one you can measure yourself before you pay.
