What Is Charmander (Holo Common) Worth?
Charmander (Holo Common) (Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Detective Pikachu set, card number 4/18. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it is an affordable, easy-to-find card best valued as part of a complete set rather than on its own.
Charmander (Holo Common) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Charmander (Holo Common) (Detective Pikachu, 4/18) is worth around $0.53 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.53, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $0.37. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.53, Lightly Played $0.47, Moderately Played $0.33, Heavily Played $0.31, Damaged $0.37 — so grading the condition correctly before you buy or sell matters more than almost anything else. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $48.00 — about 91x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $17.00.
