Japanese 1st edition vs English 1st edition

I’ve been looking into this recently too. As Galalyth said, different sets had different ratios, so there is no set rule. Someone linked me to this post which was helpful: www.elitefourum.com/t/1st-edition-timeline-lets-iron-it-out/16054/1

From my personal experience looking at Japanese Aquapolis and Skyridge cards it seems that the PSA pop of the unlimited cards are much much lower than the 1st edition cards. Which is apparently true for most, if not all, Japanese E-series sets. But the 1st edition cards still seem to go for money on average. I’m not sure if that’s because it’s not common knowledge yet or because people just prefer having the 1st edition stamp and knowing they’re the older cards.

Anyway I hope that helps, and I have no idea about newer sets I’m afraid.
