Omanyte: Rarity & Collectibility
Omanyte in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #17/124 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 Omanyte?
In 2026, a Near Mint Omanyte (Uncommon, XY - Fates Collide #17/124) changes hands at roughly $0.59, 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 $0.59, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $0.04. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $0.59, Lightly Played $0.60, Moderately Played $0.46, Heavily Played $0.24, Damaged $0.04 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Omanyte is valued near $99.99 — about 169x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Omanyte: 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) Omanyte sits around $99.99 — roughly 169x 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 $6.50 — 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.
