Noibat: Rarity & Collectibility
Noibat in its sought-after Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #194/091 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 Noibat?
In 2026, a Near Mint Noibat (Rare, SV: Paldean Fates #194/091) changes hands at roughly $4.00, and desirability among set-builders keeps that number firm. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $4.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $2.50. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $4.00, Lightly Played $3.27, Moderately Played $3.24, Damaged $2.50 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Noibat is valued near $51.00 — about 13x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Noibat: 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) Noibat sits around $51.00 — roughly 13x 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 $3.00, CGC 10 $29.99, CGC 9.5 $5.50 — 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.
