Starmie (44): Rarity & Collectibility
Starmie (44) in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #044/144 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 Starmie (44)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Starmie (44) (Uncommon, Skyridge #044/144) changes hands at roughly $39.99, 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 $39.99, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $7.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $39.99, Lightly Played $29.87, Moderately Played $20.36, Heavily Played $5.00, Damaged $7.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Starmie (44) is valued near $208.50 — about 5.2x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Starmie (44): 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) Starmie (44) sits around $208.50 — roughly 5.2x 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 $96.42, CGC 10 $99.99, PSA 8 $32.20 — 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.
