What Is Slowbro (Japanese) Worth?
Slowbro (Japanese) (Holofoil variant) is a Rare card in the SV1V: Violet ex set, card number 020/078. 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.
Slowbro (Japanese) Value Breakdown
As of 2026, Slowbro (Japanese) (SV1V: Violet ex, 020/078) is worth around $0.35 in Near Mint condition. Condition drives the price hard: a Near Mint copy is worth about $0.35, while a Moderately Played one drops to roughly $0.08. The full condition ladder runs Near Mint $0.35, Lightly Played $0.33, Moderately Played $0.08 — 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 $40.00 — about 114x the raw price, which is the single biggest swing in this card's value.
Is It Worth Grading Slowbro (Japanese)?
