Slowking ex (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Slowking ex (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 #030/071 of the SV2P: Snow Hazard 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 Slowking ex (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Slowking ex (Japanese) (Rare, SV2P: Snow Hazard #030/071) changes hands at roughly $0.32, 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 $0.32, whereas a Moderately Played one slides to around $0.59. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.32, Lightly Played $0.43, Moderately Played $0.59 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Slowking ex (Japanese) is valued near $20.00 — about 63x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Slowking ex (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) Slowking ex (Japanese) sits around $20.00 — roughly 63x 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 CGC 10 $24.00, CGC 9.5 $0.99, BGS 9.5 $7.50 — 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.
