Raticate: Rarity & Collectibility
Raticate in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #089/144 of the Skyridge 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 Raticate?
In 2026, a Near Mint Raticate (Common, Skyridge #089/144) changes hands at roughly $60.00, 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 $60.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $3.43. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $60.00, Lightly Played $40.12, Moderately Played $9.59, Heavily Played $14.99, Damaged $3.43 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Raticate is valued near $102.50 — about 1.7x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Raticate: 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) Raticate sits around $102.50 — roughly 1.7x 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 $50.00, PSA 8 $39.99 — 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.
