Pokémon card value checker
Search any English Pokémon card by name or number to see what it's worth: the current Near Mint price from TCGplayer for 25,265 cards across 211 sets, updated October 4, 2026.
Type a card name — adding the number from the bottom corner narrows it to one card.
How to check a Pokémon card's value
- 1. Read the name and number. The number sits in a bottom corner, like 124/088. A number above the set size (124 of 88) means a secret rare.
- 2. Match the set. The set symbol next to the number tells you which expansion it's from — the same Pokémon can be worth cents in one set and hundreds in another.
- 3. Check the printing. Normal, Holofoil, Reverse Holofoil and 1st Edition copies each have their own price.
- 4. Be honest about condition. Prices here are Near Mint. Whitening, scratches or bends lower the value; a high grade from PSA or CGC raises it.
What makes a card valuable
- Rarity. Special Illustration Rares, Hyper Rares and other secret rares carry most of a modern set's value.
- Demand for the Pokémon. Charizard, Pikachu, Umbreon and other favorites sell for more at the same rarity.
- Age and print run. Vintage cards and 1st Edition prints are scarcer, especially in top condition.
- Condition and grading. The difference between Near Mint and Lightly Played — or between a PSA 9 and a PSA 10 — can be large.

How do I check the value of a Pokémon card?
Find the card name and the number in the bottom corner (for example 124/088), search both here, and match the set. The price shown is the current Near Mint market price on TCGplayer; lower-condition copies sell for less.
Are these prices for graded cards?
No. They are raw (ungraded) Near Mint prices. A graded copy — especially a PSA 10 — can sell for several times the raw price, and a played copy for much less.
Why does the same card show more than one price?
Many cards were printed more than once — for example Normal, Holofoil and Reverse Holofoil, or 1st Edition and Unlimited — and each printing has its own market price. The checker lists every printing we have a price for.
How often are the prices updated?
Prices come from TCGplayer market data that TCG Vault refreshes daily, and this page is rebuilt every morning. The prices you see are as of October 4, 2026.
Is the Pokémon card value checker free?
Yes. Searching prices here is free with no sign-up. The TCG Vault iPhone app adds camera scanning, collections with a running total value, and price history.
Does it cover Japanese Pokémon cards?
No. The checker covers English Pokémon cards, priced from TCGplayer in US dollars. Japanese printings sell in a different market at different prices.
