Altaria: Rarity & Collectibility
Altaria in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a Holo Rare — the shimmering pulls that built the hobby and that set-builders prize most. Cataloged as Holo Rare #40/70 of the Dragon Majesty 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 Altaria?
In 2026, a Near Mint Altaria (Holo Rare, Dragon Majesty #40/70) changes hands at roughly $2.02, 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 $2.02, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.38. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.02, Lightly Played $1.58, Moderately Played $1.26, Heavily Played $0.65, Damaged $0.38 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Altaria is valued near $24.99 — about 12x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Altaria: 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) Altaria sits around $24.99 — roughly 12x 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
