Dodrio: Rarity & Collectibility
Dodrio is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #037/130 of the Base Set 2 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 Dodrio?
In 2026, a Near Mint Dodrio (Uncommon, Base Set 2 #037/130) changes hands at roughly $2.21, 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 $2.21, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.53. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.21, Lightly Played $1.13, Moderately Played $0.87, Heavily Played $0.57, Damaged $0.53 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Dodrio is valued near $27.00 — about 12x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Dodrio: 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) Dodrio sits around $27.00 — 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 $14.50, CGC 10 $41.00, PSA 8 $7.99 — 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.
