Marill (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Marill (Japanese) in its sought-after 1st_Edition variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #016/053 of the Miracle of the Desert 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 Marill (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Marill (Japanese) (Common, Miracle of the Desert #016/053) changes hands at roughly $4.99, 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 $4.99, whereas a Heavily Played one slides to around $1.79. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $4.99, Lightly Played $2.99, Moderately Played $2.00, Heavily Played $1.79 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
