Where the Caterpie money is

Value is not spread evenly across the printings — the ranking below is by total tracked value, not by card count, the same measure as the most valuable Pokémon cards.

The top 5 of 21 Caterpie cards hold 84% of the $49 total. The remaining 16 share what is left, which is why a “complete Caterpie collection” in the collection tracker costs far less than the headline suggests until you reach the top row.

This is the median, not the average. Averaging the ratios gives 152×, which only 6 of 18 cards (33%) actually reach: a card worth a few cents raw with a three-figure slab produces a ratio in the hundreds and drags the mean above almost the whole set. The median is what a card in the middle really does, and it is the figure to take to the grading ROI calculator.

Indexed over 11 of this set's 21 cards — the ones with enough PriceCharting sales history to track continuously.

1 year is withheld: the weighted index and the basket total disagree over that window, which means the index was re-based rather than the cards re-priced. A number we cannot stand behind is worse than no number.

Every Caterpie card, by set

Collecting Caterpie cards

Caterpie has been printed in every era of the game, from 1999 (Base) to 2025 (Journey Together). The Modern (2011–2019) era holds the most printings, 8 of the 21. The value sits elsewhere: the Current (2020–) era's 5 cards are worth $20, 40% of the total, against $12 for the Modern (2011–2019) printings.

Most Caterpie cards are cheap to own: 18 of the 21 priced cards sit under $5 raw, the cheapest being the Caterpie, and the median card is worth about $0.33. None reaches $50, so the total above is spread thinly rather than stacked in one card.

By rarity the printings split into 2 tiers, led by Common (19) and Illustration Rare (1). 18 of the 21 cards carry a PSA 10 price, the figure the grading section uses; those cards are worth about $0.30 raw at the median, against $1.41 for the 3 with no gem-mint price on file.

The grid filters by set and rarity and sorts by value, era, the PSA 10 gap or the 30-day move, so the cheapest Caterpie is one sort away (add the rarity filter for the cheapest holo); the by-set index above lists every card as text for when you know the number. Prices are CardTrack's blended raw value from real sold results, updated today.
