Mightyena (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Mightyena (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 #072/067 of the S9a: Battle Region 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 Mightyena (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mightyena (Japanese) (Rare, S9a: Battle Region #072/067) changes hands at roughly $2.17, 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 $2.17, whereas a Moderately Played one slides to around $1.40. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $2.17, Lightly Played $1.72, Moderately Played $1.40 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mightyena (Japanese) is valued near $34.00 — about 16x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mightyena (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) Mightyena (Japanese) sits around $34.00 — roughly 16x 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 $26.00, CGC 10 $23.49, BGS 9.5 $11.50 — 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.
