Ivysaur (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Ivysaur (Japanese) in its sought-after 1st_Edition variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #002/069 of the BW4: Dark Rush 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 Ivysaur (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Ivysaur (Japanese) (Common, BW4: Dark Rush #002/069) changes hands at roughly $3.48, 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 $3.48, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.48, Lightly Played $5.99, Moderately Played $2.48, Heavily Played $0.50, Damaged $1.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
