Mallow & Lana (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Mallow & Lana (Japanese) is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #089/095 of the SM12: Alter Genesis 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 Mallow & Lana (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mallow & Lana (Japanese) (Uncommon, SM12: Alter Genesis #089/095) changes hands at roughly $1.19, 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 $1.19, whereas a Lightly Played one slides to around $0.60. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mallow & Lana (Japanese) is valued near $20.00 — about 17x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mallow & Lana (Japanese): 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) Mallow & Lana (Japanese) sits around $20.00 — roughly 17x 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
