Quilava: Rarity & Collectibility
Quilava in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #091/165 of the Expedition 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 Quilava?
In 2026, a Near Mint Quilava (Uncommon, Expedition #091/165) changes hands at roughly $22.24, 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 $22.24, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $5.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $22.24, Lightly Played $22.43, Moderately Played $10.60, Heavily Played $14.18, Damaged $5.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Quilava is valued near $66.55 — about 3.0x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Quilava: 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) Quilava sits around $66.55 — roughly 3.0x 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 $74.99, CGC 10 $225.00, CGC 9.5 $30.00 — 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.
