Zamazenta V (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Zamazenta V (Japanese) in its sought-after Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #139/190 of the S4a: Shiny Star V 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 Zamazenta V (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Zamazenta V (Japanese) (Rare, S4a: Shiny Star V #139/190) changes hands at roughly $0.32, 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 $0.32, whereas a Lightly Played one slides to around $0.28. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Zamazenta V (Japanese) is valued near $28.00 — about 88x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Zamazenta V (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) Zamazenta V (Japanese) sits around $28.00 — roughly 88x 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 $12.20, CGC 10 $25.00, BGS 9.5 $8.50 — 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.
