Zubat (117): Rarity & Collectibility
Zubat (117) 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 #117/144 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 Zubat (117)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Zubat (117) (Common, Skyridge #117/144) changes hands at roughly $52.99, 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 $52.99, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $9.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $52.99, Lightly Played $37.49, Moderately Played $21.71, Heavily Played $17.65, Damaged $9.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Zubat (117) is valued near $314.00 — about 5.9x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Zubat (117): 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) Zubat (117) sits around $314.00 — roughly 5.9x 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 $99.99, CGC 10 $99.99, CGC 9.5 $49.99 — 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.
