Koffing (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Koffing (Japanese) in its sought-after Unlimited variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #001/055 of the ADV Expansion Pack set, it is the kind of card RarePokemonCard tracks for scarcity and collector demand rather than raw price alone. The harder a card is to pull in top condition, the more weight serious collectors place on it.
How Rare & Valuable Is Koffing (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Koffing (Japanese) (Common, ADV Expansion Pack #001/055) changes hands at roughly $3.00, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $3.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.75. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.00, Lightly Played $2.99, Moderately Played $2.00, Heavily Played $1.50, Damaged $0.75 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Koffing (Japanese) is valued near $116.06 — about 39x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Koffing (Japanese): Gem Mint & Population
Even for a card at this rarity, the top of the market belongs to certified gem-mint copies. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Koffing (Japanese) sits around $116.06 — roughly 39x a raw copy. That gap exists because relatively few examples ever earn a perfect grade, so gem-mint population is the real scarcity collectors chase. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
