Grading rarely pays for this card
PSA 10 copies of Oddish sell for $15.00, only $14.88 above the $0.12 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. Even a PSA 9 ($30.00) 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% | $26.25 | −$23.87 |
| 50% | $22.50 | −$27.62 |
| 75% | $18.75 | −$31.37 |
Even a miss (a 9) beats selling raw after the standard fee — the gem rate only decides how much you win by.
