Ho-Oh GX - SM57: Rarity & Collectibility
Ho-Oh GX - SM57 in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #SM57 of the SM Promos 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 Ho-Oh GX - SM57?
In 2026, a Near Mint Ho-Oh GX - SM57 (Common, SM Promos #SM57) changes hands at roughly $5.28, 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 $5.28, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.38. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $5.28, Lightly Played $4.95, Moderately Played $3.33, Heavily Played $2.15, Damaged $1.38 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Ho-Oh GX - SM57 is valued near $189.99 — about 36x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Ho-Oh GX - SM57: 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) Ho-Oh GX - SM57 sits around $189.99 — roughly 36x 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 $34.99, CGC 10 $22.50, PSA 8 $9.99 — 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.
