Ting-Lu ex: Rarity & Collectibility
Ting-Lu ex 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 #263/193 of the SV02: Paldea Evolved 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 Ting-Lu ex?
In 2026, a Near Mint Ting-Lu ex (Ultra Rare, SV02: Paldea Evolved #263/193) changes hands at roughly $10.32, 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 $10.32, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.70. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $10.32, Lightly Played $9.38, Moderately Played $7.27, Heavily Played $7.49, Damaged $4.70 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Ting-Lu ex is valued near $65.00 — about 6.3x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Ting-Lu ex: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Ting-Lu ex, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Ting-Lu ex sits around $65.00 — roughly 6.3x 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 $18.00, CGC 10 $51.00, CGC 9.5 $55.00 — 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.
