Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease): Rarity & Collectibility
Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease) in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #SWSH170 of the SWSH: Sword & Shield Promo Cards 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 Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease) (Common, SWSH: Sword & Shield Promo Cards #SWSH170) changes hands at roughly $3.73, and availability keeps it within easy reach for collectors. Because demand concentrates on clean copies, surface wear is punished hard: a Near Mint example commands about $3.73, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.81. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $3.73, Lightly Played $3.15, Moderately Played $1.44, Heavily Played $1.00, Damaged $0.81 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease) is valued near $69.95 — about 19x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease): 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) Deoxys - SWSH170 (Prerelease) sits around $69.95 — 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
