Yanma: Rarity & Collectibility
Yanma 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 #28/109 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 Yanma?
In 2026, a Near Mint Yanma (Rare, Team Rocket Returns #28/109) changes hands at roughly $43.32, 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 $43.32, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $7.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $43.32, Lightly Played $24.22, Moderately Played $19.52, Heavily Played $10.60, Damaged $7.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Yanma is valued near $700.00 — about 16x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Yanma: 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) Yanma sits around $700.00 — roughly 16x 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 $74.99, CGC 10 $120.00, 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.
