Scyther: Rarity & Collectibility
Scyther in its sought-after Holofoil variant is a Holo Rare — the shimmering pulls that built the hobby and that set-builders prize most. Cataloged as Holo Rare #SV1/SV94 of the Hidden Fates: Shiny Vault 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 Scyther?
In 2026, a Near Mint Scyther (Holo Rare, Hidden Fates: Shiny Vault #SV1/SV94) changes hands at roughly $8.13, 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 $8.13, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $2.65. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $8.13, Lightly Played $5.09, Moderately Played $4.73, Heavily Played $1.75, Damaged $2.65 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Scyther is valued near $46.00 — about 5.7x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Scyther: 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) Scyther sits around $46.00 — roughly 5.7x 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 $19.99, CGC 10 $51.50, CGC 9.5 $20.00 — 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.
