Dratini (116): Rarity & Collectibility
Dratini (116) 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 #116/181 of the SM - Team Up 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 Dratini (116)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Dratini (116) (Common, SM - Team Up #116/181) changes hands at roughly $0.57, 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 $0.57, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.17. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.57, Lightly Played $0.53, Moderately Played $0.26, Damaged $0.17 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Dratini (116) is valued near $40.00 — about 70x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Dratini (116): 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) Dratini (116) sits around $40.00 — roughly 70x 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 $14.99 — 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.

Collector Outlook for Dratini (116)
As a Common, Dratini (116) earns its place through set completion rather than chase appeal — but a binder is never finished without it.
