What Is Paras (Japanese) Worth?
Paras (Japanese) (Holofoil variant) is a Common card from the Pokemon TCG Classic: Venusaur set, card number 004/032. 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.
Paras (Japanese) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Paras (Japanese) (Pokemon TCG Classic: Venusaur, 004/032) is worth around $1.85 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $1.85, while a Lightly Played one drops to roughly $1.99. A PSA 10 (Gem Mint) example is valued near $34.95 — about 19x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value. PSA 9 copies sit around $10.00.
