Ninetales (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Ninetales (Japanese) sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #014/100 of the S11: Lost Abyss 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 Ninetales (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Ninetales (Japanese) (Common, S11: Lost Abyss #014/100) changes hands at roughly $0.41, 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 $0.41, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.05. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.41, Lightly Played $1.98, Damaged $0.05 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Ninetales (Japanese) is valued near $40.99 — about 100x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Ninetales (Japanese): 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) Ninetales (Japanese) sits around $40.99 — roughly 100x 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.

Collector Outlook for Ninetales (Japanese)
As a Common, Ninetales (Japanese) earns its place through set completion rather than chase appeal — but a binder is never finished without it. Collect it for completeness and the joy of the hunt; its appeal is the set, not the ceiling. Whether you are chasing it for a set or as a centerpiece, revisit Ninetales (Japanese) on RarePokemonCard — rarity demand in 2026 shifts with reprints, set nostalgia, and how few high-grade copies surface.
