Graveler (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Graveler (Japanese) is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon # of the Mystery of the Fossils 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 Graveler (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Graveler (Japanese) (Uncommon, Mystery of the Fossils #) changes hands at roughly $1.16, 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 $1.16, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.28. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.16, Lightly Played $0.59, Moderately Played $0.59, Heavily Played $0.25, Damaged $0.28 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Graveler (Japanese) is valued near $122.51 — about 106x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Graveler (Japanese): 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) Graveler (Japanese) sits around $122.51 — roughly 106x 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 $14.99, CGC 10 $53.00, CGC 9.5 $9.95 — 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.
