Bayleef (29): Rarity & Collectibility
Bayleef (29) in its sought-after Unlimited variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #029/111 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 Bayleef (29)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Bayleef (29) (Uncommon, Neo Genesis #029/111) changes hands at roughly $2.52, 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 $2.52, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.69. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.52, Lightly Played $1.68, Moderately Played $1.15, Heavily Played $1.02, Damaged $0.69 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Bayleef (29) is valued near $77.77 — about 31x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Bayleef (29): 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) Bayleef (29) sits around $77.77 — roughly 31x 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 $22.50, CGC 10 $18.50, PSA 8 $5.50 — 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.
