Clive: Rarity & Collectibility
Clive in its sought-after Holofoil variant is an Ultra Rare chase card, one of the headline pulls that most boosters never produce. Cataloged as Ultra Rare #236/091 of the SV: Paldean Fates 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 Clive?
In 2026, a Near Mint Clive (Ultra Rare, SV: Paldean Fates #236/091) changes hands at roughly $15.37, and its scarcity does most of the heavy lifting on that figure. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $15.37, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $10.27. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $15.37, Lightly Played $14.92, Moderately Played $14.47, Heavily Played $9.99, Damaged $10.27 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Clive is valued near $93.87 — about 6.1x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Clive: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Clive, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Clive sits around $93.87 — roughly 6.1x 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 $29.99, CGC 10 $68.00, CGC 9.5 $16.50 — 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.
