Dark Raichu: Rarity & Collectibility

Dark Raichu in its sought-after Unlimited_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 #83/82 of the Team Rocket 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 Dark Raichu?

In 2026, a Near Mint Dark Raichu (Secret Rare, Team Rocket #83/82) changes hands at roughly $92.07, 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 $92.07, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $27.52. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $92.07, Lightly Played $69.04, Moderately Played $47.74, Heavily Played $39.91, Damaged $27.52 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
