Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese): Rarity & Collectibility
Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese) 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 #005/016 of the Team Plasma Battle Gift Set 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 Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese)?
In 2026, a Near Mint Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese) (Common, Team Plasma Battle Gift Set #005/016) changes hands at roughly $90.00, 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 $90.00, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $34.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $90.00, Lightly Played $39.99, Heavily Played $60.00, Damaged $34.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese) is valued near $2,500 — about 28x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Darkrai (Team Plasma) (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) Darkrai (Team Plasma) (Japanese) sits around $2,500 — roughly 28x 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 $257.10 — 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.
