Mantyke: Rarity & Collectibility
Mantyke 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 #189/182 of the SV04: Paradox Rift 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 Mantyke?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mantyke (Ultra Rare, SV04: Paradox Rift #189/182) changes hands at roughly $20.77, 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 $20.77, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $7.52. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $20.77, Lightly Played $17.31, Moderately Played $13.65, Heavily Played $11.68, Damaged $7.52 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mantyke is valued near $100.00 — about 4.8x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mantyke: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Mantyke, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Mantyke sits around $100.00 — roughly 4.8x 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 $25.50, CGC 10 $23.02, CGC 9.5 $25.00 — 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.
