Aipom: Rarity & Collectibility
Aipom in its sought-after Unlimited variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #026/111 of the Neo Genesis 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 Aipom?
In 2026, a Near Mint Aipom (Uncommon, Neo Genesis #026/111) changes hands at roughly $1.88, 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 $1.88, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.72. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.88, Lightly Played $1.64, Moderately Played $1.09, Heavily Played $0.77, Damaged $0.72 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Aipom is valued near $16.50 — about 8.8x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Aipom: 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) Aipom sits around $16.50 — roughly 8.8x 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 $11.50, CGC 10 $15.01, BGS 9.5 $14.49 — 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.
