Professor Sycamore: Rarity & Collectibility
Professor Sycamore in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #107/122 of the XY - BREAKpoint 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 Professor Sycamore?
In 2026, a Near Mint Professor Sycamore (Uncommon, XY - BREAKpoint #107/122) changes hands at roughly $0.53, 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 $0.53, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.39. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.53, Lightly Played $0.40, Moderately Played $0.30, Heavily Played $0.24, Damaged $0.39 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Professor Sycamore is valued near $59.99 — about 113x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Professor Sycamore: 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) Professor Sycamore sits around $59.99 — roughly 113x 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. The rule of thumb for collectors: the rarer the card, the more a certified high grade matters to its standing.
