Raichu GX: Rarity & Collectibility

Raichu GX in its sought-after Holofoil variant is an Ultra Rare chase card, one of the headline pulls that most boosters never produce. Cataloged as Ultra Rare #29/73 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 Raichu GX?

In 2026, a Near Mint Raichu GX (Ultra Rare, Shining Legends #29/73) changes hands at roughly $4.98, and its scarcity does most of the heavy lifting on that figure. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $4.98, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.33. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $4.98, Lightly Played $3.30, Moderately Played $2.69, Heavily Played $2.08, Damaged $1.33 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Raichu GX is valued near $90.00 — about 18x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Raichu GX: Gem Mint & Population

For a chase card like Raichu GX, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Raichu GX sits around $90.00 — roughly 18x 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 $20.50, CGC 10 $14.25, PSA 8 $20.00 — 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.
