Cyndaquil (Delta Species): Rarity & Collectibility
Cyndaquil (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 #45/101 of the Dragon Frontiers 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 Cyndaquil (Delta Species)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Cyndaquil (Delta Species) (Common, Dragon Frontiers #45/101) changes hands at roughly $18.47, 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 $18.47, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.54. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $18.47, Lightly Played $15.19, Moderately Played $7.34, Heavily Played $4.92, Damaged $4.54 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Cyndaquil (Delta Species) is valued near $365.00 — about 20x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Cyndaquil (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) Cyndaquil (Delta Species) sits around $365.00 — roughly 20x 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 $76.00, CGC 10 $178.50, CGC 9.5 $70.00 — 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.
