What Is Torchic Worth?
Torchic (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Great Encounters set, card number 89/106. On PokeCardWorth we focus on one question — what is it actually worth — and at its current valuation, it carries real mid-range value and is worth keeping protected in a sleeve and top-loader.
Torchic Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Torchic (Great Encounters, 89/106) is worth around $22.95 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $22.95, while a Damaged one drops to roughly $1.82. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $22.95, Lightly Played $7.94, Moderately Played $6.17, Heavily Played $4.68, Damaged $1.82 — 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 $709.99 — about 31x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $60.99.
Is It Worth Grading Torchic?
