Where the Palafin 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 3 of 12 Palafin cards hold 86% of the $61 total. The remaining 9 share what is left, which is why a “complete Palafin 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 141×, which only 3 of 10 cards (30%) 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 Palafin card, by set
Collecting Palafin cards
Every Palafin card comes from the Current (2020–) era, between 2023 (Obsidian Flames) and 2026 (Pitch Black), so condition and rarity rather than age separate the cheap copies from the valuable ones.
Most Palafin cards are cheap to own: 11 of the 12 priced cards sit under $5 raw, the cheapest being the Palafin, and the median card is worth about $0.74. None reaches $50, so the total above is spread thinly rather than stacked in one card.
By rarity the printings split into 8 tiers, led by Uncommon (3), Illustration Rare (2) and Promo (2). 10 of the 12 cards carry a PSA 10 price, the figure the grading section uses; those cards are worth about $0.74 raw at the median, against $0.14 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 Palafin 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.
