Mantine: Rarity & Collectibility
Mantine in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #45/109 of the Team Rocket Returns 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 Mantine?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mantine (Uncommon, Team Rocket Returns #45/109) changes hands at roughly $46.99, 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 $46.99, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $8.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $46.99, Lightly Played $26.00, Moderately Played $14.16, Heavily Played $5.64, Damaged $8.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mantine is valued near $364.99 — about 7.8x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mantine: 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) Mantine sits around $364.99 — roughly 7.8x 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 $75.00, CGC 10 $110.00, CGC 9.5 $59.99 — 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.
