Hippowdon: Rarity & Collectibility
Hippowdon in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #21/100 of the Majestic Dawn 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 Hippowdon?
In 2026, a Near Mint Hippowdon (Rare, Majestic Dawn #21/100) changes hands at roughly $2.63, 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 $2.63, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.58. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.63, Lightly Played $1.69, Moderately Played $1.71, Heavily Played $1.00, Damaged $0.58 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Hippowdon is valued near $116.18 — about 44x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Hippowdon: 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) Hippowdon sits around $116.18 — roughly 44x 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 CGC 10 $25.00, CGC 9.5 $7.50, PSA 8 $8.37 — 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.
