Victini VMAX (Secret): Rarity & Collectibility

Victini VMAX (Secret) in its sought-after Holofoil variant is a Secret Rare — a top-of-the-set short print and one of the toughest cards to land in the wild. Cataloged as Secret Rare #165/163 of the SWSH05: Battle 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 Victini VMAX (Secret)?

In 2026, a Near Mint Victini VMAX (Secret) (Secret Rare, SWSH05: Battle #165/163) changes hands at roughly $17.55, 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 $17.55, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $6.99. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $17.55, Lightly Played $14.11, Moderately Played $10.64, Heavily Played $4.62, Damaged $6.99 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Victini VMAX (Secret) is valued near $190.00 — about 11x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.

Graded Victini VMAX (Secret): Gem Mint & Population

For a chase card like Victini VMAX (Secret), the high-grade market is where the real money lives. A PSA 10 (or CGC 10 / BGS Black Label equivalent) Victini VMAX (Secret) sits around $190.00 — roughly 11x 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 $33.00, CGC 10 $40.00 — 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.
