Venusaur V: Rarity & Collectibility

Venusaur V in its sought-after Holofoil variant is an Ultra Rare chase card, one of the headline pulls that most boosters never produce. Cataloged as Ultra Rare #01/73 of the Champion's Path 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 Venusaur V?

In 2026, a Near Mint Venusaur V (Ultra Rare, Champion's Path #01/73) changes hands at roughly $2.53, and its scarcity does most of the heavy lifting on that figure. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $2.53, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.06. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.53, Lightly Played $2.56, Moderately Played $1.49, Heavily Played $1.50, Damaged $1.06 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Venusaur V is valued near $40.00 — about 16x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Venusaur V: Gem Mint & Population

For a chase card like Venusaur V, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Venusaur V sits around $40.00 — roughly 16x 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 $12.01, CGC 10 $14.95, CGC 9.5 $11.50 — 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.
