Trubbish (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility

Trubbish (Japanese) in its sought-after 1st_Edition variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #053/093 of the EX Battle Boost 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 Trubbish (Japanese)?

In 2026, a Near Mint Trubbish (Japanese) (Common, EX Battle Boost #053/093) changes hands at roughly $3.72, 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 $3.72, whereas a Moderately Played one slides to around $2.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.72, Lightly Played $3.00, Moderately Played $2.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Trubbish (Japanese) is valued near $175.00 — about 47x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Trubbish (Japanese): 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) Trubbish (Japanese) sits around $175.00 — roughly 47x 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 $25.00, CGC 10 $40.74 — 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.
