Kingler (Delta Species): Rarity & Collectibility
Kingler (Delta Species) in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #22/100 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 Kingler (Delta Species)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Kingler (Delta Species) (Rare, Crystal Guardians #22/100) changes hands at roughly $43.40, and desirability among set-builders keeps that number firm. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $43.40, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $5.90. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $43.40, Lightly Played $25.84, Moderately Played $12.31, Heavily Played $8.23, Damaged $5.90 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Kingler (Delta Species) is valued near $1,000 — about 23x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Kingler (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) Kingler (Delta Species) sits around $1,000 — roughly 23x 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 $99.96, CGC 10 $150.00, 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.
