Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese) 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 #002/173 of the SM12a: TAG TEAM GX: Tag All Stars 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 Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese) (Common, SM12a: TAG TEAM GX: Tag All Stars #002/173) changes hands at roughly $1.77, 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 $1.77, whereas a Lightly Played one slides to around $1.64. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese) is valued near $31.49 — about 18x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (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) Paras (Mirror Holofoil) (Japanese) sits around $31.49 — 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
