Where the Ekans 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 7 of 17 Ekans cards hold 82% of the $12 total. The remaining 10 share what is left, which is why a “complete Ekans collection” in the collection tracker costs far less than the headline suggests until you reach the top row.

one card, near-zero raw

This is the median, not the average. Averaging the ratios gives 132×, which only 7 of 15 cards (47%) 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.

Every Ekans card, by set

Collecting Ekans cards

Ekans has been printed in every era of the game, from 1999 (Fossil) to 2025 (Destined Rivals). The Vintage (1999–2003) era holds the most printings, 5 of the 17, and it holds the value too: $7, 58% of the total.

Most Ekans cards are cheap to own: 17 of the 17 priced cards sit under $5 raw, the cheapest being the Ekans, and the median card is worth about $0.31. None reaches $50, so the total above is spread thinly rather than stacked in one card.

By rarity the printings split into 1 tier: every card is Common. 15 of the 17 cards carry a PSA 10 price, the figure the grading section uses; those cards are worth about $0.28 raw at the median, against $0.31 for the 2 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 Ekans 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.

Ekans card questions

What is the most valuable Ekans card?

How much is a complete Ekans collection worth?

All 17 tracked Ekans cards come to approximately $12 in raw near-mint condition. The value is concentrated: the top 7 cards alone account for 82% of it.

How much more is a graded Ekans card worth?

A typical Ekans card in PSA 10 sells for about 132× its raw price — that is the median across the 15 cards with both a raw and a PSA 10 price. Half fall between 100× and 162×, and the very cheapest cards can show far larger multiples simply because their raw price is near zero.
