Gouging Fire ex (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Gouging Fire ex (Japanese) 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 #093/071 of the SV5K: Wild Force 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 Gouging Fire ex (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Gouging Fire ex (Japanese) (Ultra Rare, SV5K: Wild Force #093/071) changes hands at roughly $26.74, 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 $26.74, whereas a Moderately Played one slides to around $26.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $26.74, Lightly Played $26.58, Moderately Played $26.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Gouging Fire ex (Japanese) is valued near $91.64 — about 3.4x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Gouging Fire ex (Japanese): Gem Mint & Population
For a chase card like Gouging Fire ex (Japanese), the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Gouging Fire ex (Japanese) sits around $91.64 — roughly 3.4x 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 $32.50, CGC 10 $34.00, BGS 9.5 $21.28 — 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.
