Piplup: Rarity & Collectibility
Piplup 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 #93/130 of the Diamond and Pearl 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 Piplup?
In 2026, a Near Mint Piplup (Common, Diamond and Pearl #93/130) changes hands at roughly $14.12, 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 $14.12, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.44. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $14.12, Lightly Played $3.89, Moderately Played $2.73, Heavily Played $1.68, Damaged $0.44 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.

Collector Outlook for Piplup
As a Common, Piplup 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 Piplup on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
