Charmander (Delta Species): Rarity & Collectibility
Charmander (Delta Species) 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 #49/100 of the Crystal Guardians 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 Charmander (Delta Species)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Charmander (Delta Species) (Common, Crystal Guardians #49/100) changes hands at roughly $95.91, 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 $95.91, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $21.60. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $95.91, Lightly Played $58.33, Moderately Played $40.95, Heavily Played $26.90, Damaged $21.60 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Charmander (Delta Species) is valued near $187.02 — about 1.9x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Charmander (Delta Species): 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) Charmander (Delta Species) sits around $187.02 — roughly 1.9x 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 $449.95, CGC 10 $210.00, CGC 9.5 $99.99 — 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.
