Lapras GX (Full Art): Rarity & Collectibility

Lapras GX (Full Art) 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 #139/149 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 Lapras GX (Full Art)?

In 2026, a Near Mint Lapras GX (Full Art) (Ultra Rare, SM Base Set #139/149) changes hands at roughly $8.35, 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 $8.35, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $2.60. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $8.35, Lightly Played $6.29, Moderately Played $6.10, Heavily Played $3.80, Damaged $2.60 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Lapras GX (Full Art) is valued near $150.00 — about 18x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Lapras GX (Full Art): Gem Mint & Population

For a chase card like Lapras GX (Full Art), the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Lapras GX (Full Art) sits around $150.00 — 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 $35.00, CGC 9.5 $15.00, PSA 8 $20.72 — 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.
