Where the Darkrai 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 14 of 43 Darkrai cards hold 81% of the $3,006 total. The remaining 29 share what is left, which is why a “complete Darkrai 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 125×, which only 12 of 37 cards (32%) 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 22 of this set's 43 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.

Strongest Darkrai grading opportunities

Ranked by expected net — every grade weighted by how often this card actually earns it (the gem rate beside each card is its PSA 10 share). Best case is the PSA 10 outcome, which is why it is the larger number and the one to trust least.

Every Darkrai card, by set

Collecting Darkrai cards

Darkrai printings span 3 eras, from 2007 (DP Black Star Promos) to 2026 (Pitch Black), and the Modern (2011–2019) era holds the most of them, 19 of the 43, and it holds the value too: $1,398, 47% of the total.

Darkrai cards are not cheap to own: only 8 of the 43 priced cards sit under $5 raw, the cheapest being the Darkrai, and the median card is worth about $25.00. 17 are worth $50 or more. Those 17 cards hold 86% of the total on this page.

By rarity the printings split into 18 tiers, led by Promo (10), Rare Holo (7) and LEGEND (4). 37 of the 43 cards carry a PSA 10 price, the figure the grading section uses; those cards are worth about $40.00 raw at the median, against $1.66 for the 6 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 Darkrai 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.
