Espeon GX: Rarity & Collectibility
Espeon 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 #61/149 of the SM Base Set 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 Espeon GX?
In 2026, a Near Mint Espeon GX (Ultra Rare, SM Base Set #61/149) changes hands at roughly $8.13, 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 $8.13, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $2.13. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $8.13, Lightly Played $4.75, Moderately Played $4.04, Heavily Played $3.07, Damaged $2.13 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Espeon GX is valued near $129.99 — about 16x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Espeon GX: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Espeon GX, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Espeon GX sits around $129.99 — roughly 16x 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 $32.38, CGC 10 $18.50, CGC 9.5 $34.99 — 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.
