Butterfree (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Butterfree (Japanese) is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon # of the Pokemon Jungle 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 Butterfree (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Butterfree (Japanese) (Uncommon, Pokemon Jungle #) changes hands at roughly $2.68, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors.

Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.68, Lightly Played $1.82, Moderately Played $1.38, Heavily Played $0.73, Damaged $0.54 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
