Smeargle: Rarity & Collectibility

Smeargle 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 #123/162 of the XY - BREAKthrough 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 Smeargle?

In 2026, a Near Mint Smeargle (Rare, XY - BREAKthrough #123/162) changes hands at roughly $0.90, and desirability among set-builders keeps that number firm.

Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.90, Lightly Played $0.74, Moderately Played $0.58, Heavily Played $0.44, Damaged $0.86 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value.
