From 25 completed sales recorded between Sep 29, 2024 and Jun 22, 2026. Sold prices only — asking prices are never counted. The range is wide because these sales span different printings and conditions — 1st Edition, Shadowless and Unlimited copies all carry this card's name, and they trade at very different levels. Each sale above is labelled with what its listing claimed, so you can see which ones describe the same object. Treat the median as the typical copy, not the range.

The odds
Ampharos is a Rare in POP Series 7 — the pack's hit slot lands on Rare 100% of the time, split across 5 rare cards in the set, so pulling this exact card is roughly 1 in 5 packs.
Estimates only. Pack odds come from CardTrack's pack model (the same one behind the pack simulator) — not an official rate. Grading odds are the real cumulative PSA population, which skews toward nicer, resubmitted copies, so it overstates the true first-submission gem rate. Full grade-by-grade breakdown below.
Grade-by-grade ROI & risk-adjusted outcomesNet vs raw per target grade, plus the probability-weighted distribution
| Target grade | Est. value | Grading fee | Net vs raw | Multiple |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSA 9 | $40.00 | $70 | −$42 | 3.3× |
| PSA 8 | $35.46 | $70 | −$47 | 3.0× |
Net = graded value − raw value − grading cost (tier fee + ~$20 round-trip shipping), using PSA fees as of 2026-06-28; the paused PSA Value tier is excluded so this isn't overstated. Real outcome depends on the grade achieved; PSA 10 is best-case.
Population across gradersPSA, CGC & BGS — every grade, with gem rates
Only 5% of 176 PSA-graded Ampharos copies are a gem-mint 10 (8 of 176) — the rest grade lower.
Real graded population from PSA, CGC & BGS — a lower gem rate means a Ampharos 10 is harder to pull.

Card textAttacks, abilities, weakness / resistance / retreat
Evolves from Flaaffy.
After your opponent plays a Supporter card from his or her hand, put 1 damage counter on each of your opponent's Pokémon. You can't use more than 1 Jamming Poké-Body each turn.
You may discard all Lightning Energy attached to Ampharos. If you do, this attack does 20 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon that has any Energy cards attached to it. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
“The tip of its tail shines brightly. In the olden days, people sent signals using the tail's light.”
