Clemont's Quick Wit: Rarity & Collectibility
Clemont's Quick Wit 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 #243/191 of the SV08: Surging Sparks 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 Clemont's Quick Wit?
In 2026, a Near Mint Clemont's Quick Wit (Ultra Rare, SV08: Surging Sparks #243/191) changes hands at roughly $7.86, 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 $7.86, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $6.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $7.86, Lightly Played $7.98, Moderately Played $8.22, Heavily Played $6.44, Damaged $6.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Clemont's Quick Wit is valued near $40.00 — about 5.1x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Clemont's Quick Wit: Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Clemont's Quick Wit, the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Clemont's Quick Wit sits around $40.00 — roughly 5.1x 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 $13.99, CGC 10 $11.50, CGC 9.5 $10.50 — 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.
