Carnivine: Rarity & Collectibility

Carnivine in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #6/73 of the Shining Legends 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 Carnivine?

In 2026, a Near Mint Carnivine (Uncommon, Shining Legends #6/73) changes hands at roughly $0.58, 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 $0.58, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.25. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.58, Lightly Played $0.51, Moderately Played $0.48, Heavily Played $0.62, Damaged $0.25 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
