Squirtle (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Squirtle (Japanese) in its sought-after Unlimited variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #023/096 of the Pt1: Galactic's Conquest 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.
