Lickitung (Holo Common): Rarity & Collectibility
Lickitung (Holo Common) in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #16/18 of the Detective Pikachu 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 Lickitung (Holo Common)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Lickitung (Holo Common) (Common, Detective Pikachu #16/18) changes hands at roughly $0.32, 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 $0.32, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.17. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.32, Lightly Played $0.26, Moderately Played $0.22, Heavily Played $0.20, Damaged $0.17 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Lickitung (Holo Common) is valued near $50.00 — about 156x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Lickitung (Holo Common): 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) Lickitung (Holo Common) sits around $50.00 — roughly 156x 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 $16.50, CGC 10 $21.50, PSA 8 $8.26 — 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 Lickitung (Holo Common)
As a Common, Lickitung (Holo Common) earns its place through set completion rather than chase appeal — but a binder is never finished without it. Collect it for completeness and the joy of the hunt; its appeal is the set, not the ceiling. Whether you are chasing it for a set or as a centerpiece, revisit Lickitung (Holo Common) on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
