Arceus - XY116: Rarity & Collectibility
Arceus - XY116 in its sought-after Holofoil variant sits at the most plentiful end of the rarity scale — easy to pull and easy to find. Cataloged as Common #XY116 of the XY Promos 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 Arceus - XY116?
In 2026, a Near Mint Arceus - XY116 (Common, XY Promos #XY116) changes hands at roughly $29.03, 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 $29.03, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $4.58. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $29.03, Lightly Played $17.03, Moderately Played $14.62, Heavily Played $10.13, Damaged $4.58 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Arceus - XY116 is valued near $2,725 — about 94x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Arceus - XY116: 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) Arceus - XY116 sits around $2,725 — roughly 94x 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 9 $199.00, PSA 8 $23.00 — 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.
