Snorlax: Rarity & Collectibility
Snorlax in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a Holo Rare — the shimmering pulls that built the hobby and that set-builders prize most. Cataloged as Holo Rare #055/078 of the Pokemon GO 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 Snorlax?
In 2026, a Near Mint Snorlax (Holo Rare, Pokemon GO #055/078) changes hands at roughly $1.23, and desirability among set-builders keeps that number firm. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $1.23, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.50. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.23, Lightly Played $1.02, Moderately Played $0.80, Heavily Played $0.96, Damaged $0.50 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Snorlax is valued near $202.50 — about 165x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Snorlax: 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) Snorlax sits around $202.50 — roughly 165x 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 $29.00, PSA 8 $5.69 — 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.
