Qwilfish: Rarity & Collectibility
Qwilfish in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #50/123 of the HeartGold SoulSilver 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 Qwilfish?
In 2026, a Near Mint Qwilfish (Uncommon, HeartGold SoulSilver #50/123) changes hands at roughly $4.57, 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 $4.57, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.35. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $4.57, Lightly Played $1.44, Moderately Played $0.77, Heavily Played $1.18, Damaged $0.35 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Qwilfish is valued near $300.00 — about 66x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Qwilfish: 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) Qwilfish sits around $300.00 — roughly 66x 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 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.
