Magmar: Rarity & Collectibility
Magmar 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 #16/83 of the Generations 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 Magmar?
In 2026, a Near Mint Magmar (Common, Generations #16/83) changes hands at roughly $1.29, 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 $1.29, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.15. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.29, Lightly Played $0.58, Moderately Played $0.37, Heavily Played $0.34, Damaged $0.15 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Magmar is valued near $100.00 — about 78x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Magmar: 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) Magmar sits around $100.00 — roughly 78x 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 $10.50, PSA 8 $8.50 — 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.

Collector Outlook for Magmar
As a Common, Magmar earns its place through set completion rather than chase appeal — but a binder is never finished without it. Collect it for completeness and the joy of the hunt; its appeal is the set, not the ceiling. Whether you are chasing it for a set or as a centerpiece, revisit Magmar on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
