Gloom: Rarity & Collectibility
Gloom in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #049/147 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 Gloom?
In 2026, a Near Mint Gloom (Uncommon, Aquapolis #049/147) changes hands at roughly $46.84, 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 $46.84, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $30.19. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $46.84, Lightly Played $23.30, Moderately Played $27.07, Heavily Played $10.87, Damaged $30.19 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Gloom is valued near $575.00 — about 12x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Gloom: 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) Gloom sits around $575.00 — roughly 12x 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 $117.49, CGC 10 $600.00, CGC 9.5 $149.99 — 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.
