Ultra Ball: Rarity & Collectibility
Ultra Ball in its sought-after Reverse_Holofoil variant is an Uncommon, slightly scarcer than the base cards but still widely available. Cataloged as Uncommon #93/108 of the XY - Roaring Skies 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 Ultra Ball?
In 2026, a Near Mint Ultra Ball (Uncommon, XY - Roaring Skies #93/108) changes hands at roughly $1.49, 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 $1.49, whereas a Damaged one slides to around $1.00. Across the wear scale that reads Near Mint $1.49, Lightly Played $1.31, Moderately Played $1.03, Heavily Played $1.03, Damaged $1.00 — proof that for a collectible like this, presentation is inseparable from value. At the very top, a gem-mint PSA 10 Ultra Ball is valued near $5.50 — about 3.7x the raw copy, the clearest sign of how much collectors pay for flawless scarcity.
Graded Ultra Ball: 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) Ultra Ball sits around $5.50 — roughly 3.7x 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.
