Typhlosion - SM185: Rarity & Collectibility
Typhlosion - SM185 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 #SM185 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 Typhlosion - SM185?
In 2026, a Near Mint Typhlosion - SM185 (Common, SM Promos #SM185) changes hands at roughly $4.46, 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 $4.46, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.32. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $4.46, Lightly Played $3.19, Moderately Played $2.90, Heavily Played $2.01, Damaged $1.32 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Typhlosion - SM185 is valued near $450.00 — about 101x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Typhlosion - SM185: 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) Typhlosion - SM185 sits around $450.00 — roughly 101x 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 $15.50, PSA 8 $13.17 — 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.
