Mothim: Rarity & Collectibility
Mothim 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 #4/124 of the XY - Fates Collide 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 Mothim?
In 2026, a Near Mint Mothim (Rare, XY - Fates Collide #4/124) changes hands at roughly $0.62, 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 $0.62, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.25. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.62, Lightly Played $0.37, Moderately Played $0.28, Heavily Played $0.40, Damaged $0.25 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Mothim is valued near $49.95 — about 81x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Mothim: 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) Mothim sits around $49.95 — roughly 81x 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 8 $19.95 — 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.
