Gloom: Rarity & Collectibility
Gloom in its sought-after Unlimited variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #036/111 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 Gloom?
In 2026, a Near Mint Gloom (Uncommon, Neo Genesis #036/111) changes hands at roughly $2.18, 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 $2.18, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.70. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.18, Lightly Played $1.53, Moderately Played $1.03, Heavily Played $0.79, Damaged $0.70 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Gloom is valued near $20.95 — about 9.6x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Gloom: 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) Gloom sits around $20.95 — roughly 9.6x 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 $26.00, CGC 10 $17.38, BGS 9.5 $15.00 — 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.
