Breloom: Rarity & Collectibility
Breloom in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is a genuine Rare that print runs hold back, so collectors have to hunt for clean copies. Cataloged as Rare #004/172 of the SWSH09: Brilliant Stars 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 Breloom?
In 2026, a Near Mint Breloom (Rare, SWSH09: Brilliant Stars #004/172) changes hands at roughly $0.23, 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 $0.23, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.03. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.23, Lightly Played $0.15, Moderately Played $0.16, Heavily Played $0.22, Damaged $0.03 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
