Taillow: Rarity & Collectibility
Taillow 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 #86/113 of the Delta Species 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 Taillow?
In 2026, a Near Mint Taillow (Common, Delta Species #86/113) changes hands at roughly $19.22, 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 $19.22, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.89. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $19.22, Lightly Played $6.14, Moderately Played $4.86, Heavily Played $1.98, Damaged $1.89 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Taillow is valued near $500.00 — about 26x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Taillow: 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) Taillow sits around $500.00 — roughly 26x 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 $15.50, CGC 10 $29.52, CGC 9.5 $50.00 — 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.

Collector Outlook for Taillow
As a Common, Taillow earns its place through set completion rather than chase appeal — but a binder is never finished without it. An accessible pickup whose pull is enjoyment and progress toward a finished set. Whether you are chasing it for a set or as a centerpiece, revisit Taillow on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
