Carnivine: Rarity & Collectibility
Carnivine 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 #16/102 of the Triumphant 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 Carnivine?
In 2026, a Near Mint Carnivine (Rare, Triumphant #16/102) changes hands at roughly $1.15, 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 $1.15, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.15. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.15, Lightly Played $0.99, Moderately Played $0.60, Heavily Played $0.50, Damaged $0.15 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
