Mothim: Rarity & Collectibility
Mothim is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #005/017 of the POP Series 7 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 Mothim?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mothim (Rare, POP Series 7 #005/017) changes hands at roughly $1.06, 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 $1.06, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.42. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.06, Lightly Played $1.13, Moderately Played $0.88, Heavily Played $0.75, Damaged $0.42 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
