TV Reporter: Rarity & Collectibility
TV Reporter is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #011/017 of the POP Series 2 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 TV Reporter?
In 2026, a Near Mint TV Reporter (Uncommon, POP Series 2 #011/017) changes hands at roughly $3.10, 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 $3.10, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.10, Lightly Played $2.64, Moderately Played $2.10, Heavily Played $1.40, Damaged $1.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 TV Reporter is valued near $80.00 — about 26x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded TV Reporter: 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) TV Reporter sits around $80.00 — roughly 26x 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 $11.25, CGC 10 $19.99 — 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.
