Paldean Wooper: Rarity & Collectibility
Paldean Wooper 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 #221/193 of the SV02: Paldea 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 Paldean Wooper?
In 2026, a Near Mint Paldean Wooper (Ultra Rare, SV02: Paldea #221/193) changes hands at roughly $9.50, 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 $9.50, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.69. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $9.50, Lightly Played $8.16, Moderately Played $7.43, Heavily Played $5.39, Damaged $4.69 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Paldean Wooper is valued near $150.00 — about 16x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Paldean Wooper: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Paldean Wooper, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Paldean Wooper sits around $150.00 — roughly 16x 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 $25.00, CGC 10 $25.00, PSA 8 $18.88 — 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.
