Pokémon card prices, set lists & value checker

How to find out what your Pokémon card is worth

Every Pokémon card has two things printed at the bottom that tell you exactly which card it is: a small set symbol and a card number such as 4/102. Search for the card's name, pick the set that matches the symbol, and check the number — that's the card you own. Many Pokémon have dozens of different cards, and two cards with the same name can be worth very different amounts.

Each card page on Pully shows the current Cardmarket trend price (the main European marketplace, which UK collectors use widely) and the TCGplayer market price from the United States. Those figures are a starting point. What a card actually sells for in the UK depends on its condition, whether it's graded, and demand on the day — so every card also links straight to completed eBay UK listings, which show real sold prices rather than hopeful asking prices.

Condition changes everything

Prices you see online usually assume a near-mint card: sharp corners, clean edges, no scratches on the surface and the picture well centred. A card with whitening on the edges or a crease can sell for a fraction of that. If you think you have something valuable, put it in a sleeve and a rigid top loader straight away, and compare it with sold listings in similar condition.

Raw cards and graded cards

A “raw” card is one that hasn't been professionally assessed. A graded card has been sent to a company such as PSA, CGC or Beckett, given a score out of 10 and sealed in a plastic slab. A high grade on a popular card can multiply its value, but grading costs money and takes time, so it's usually only worth it for cards that are already valuable and in excellent condition.

Which sets are worth checking first?

Older Wizards of the Coast cards from 1999–2003, especially holographic rares from Base Set, Jungle and Fossil, are the classic place to start. Among modern sets, chase cards from Evolving Skies, Scarlet & Violet—151, Prismatic Evolutions and Surging Sparks are the ones collectors talk about most. Use the set lists to sort each set by price and see its most valuable cards at a glance.
