Chinchou (71): Rarity & Collectibility
Chinchou (71) in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #071/147 of the Aquapolis 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 Chinchou (71)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Chinchou (71) (Common, Aquapolis #071/147) changes hands at roughly $20.00, 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 $20.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.01. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $20.00, Lightly Played $17.99, Moderately Played $9.87, Heavily Played $4.92, Damaged $4.01 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Chinchou (71) is valued near $195.00 — about 9.8x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Chinchou (71): 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) Chinchou (71) sits around $195.00 — roughly 9.8x 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. Step down a notch and demand spreads across PSA 9 $39.99, PSA 8 $27.99 — each tier a smaller, scarcer pool than the one below it. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
