What Is Charmeleon Worth?
Charmeleon (Reverse_Holofoil variant) is an Uncommon from Pokemon GO, card number 009/078. 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.
Charmeleon Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Charmeleon (Pokemon GO, 009/078) is worth around $0.50 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.50, while a Heavily Played one drops to roughly $0.49. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.50, Lightly Played $0.42, Moderately Played $0.38, Heavily Played $0.49 — 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 $125.00 — about 250x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $24.99.
Is It Worth Grading Charmeleon?
Grading Charmeleon can pay off concretely: the gap between its raw value ($0.50) and a PSA 10 ($125.00) is about $124.50 — a 250x uplift before grading fees. Other graded tiers we track: PSA 9 $24.99, CGC 10 $20.18, PSA 8 $1.94. At this value grading rarely makes sense — the fee usually exceeds the card's worth.
