Bombirdier (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Bombirdier (Japanese) 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 #089/078 of the SV1V: Violet ex 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 Bombirdier (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Bombirdier (Japanese) (Rare, SV1V: Violet ex #089/078) changes hands at roughly $1.76, 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 $1.76, whereas a Moderately Played one slides to around $1.26. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.76, Lightly Played $1.43, Moderately Played $1.26 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Bombirdier (Japanese) is valued near $33.99 — about 19x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Bombirdier (Japanese): 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) Bombirdier (Japanese) sits around $33.99 — roughly 19x 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 $11.01, CGC 10 $13.99, CGC 9.5 $8.00 — 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.
