Which print variants of 145 exist, and what do they cost?

Houndstone 145 is on record in the Holofoil finish, and that is the only finish this site holds a price for. Any other finish is marked no price record below, which is not the same as saying the card was never printed that way.

The area outside the picture catches the light

The border around the artwork is foiled instead.

This pane is Litleo 139, a card from the same set, borrowed so the two finishes can be compared side by side. Houndstone 145 has no Reverse Holofoil on record here, and that is a statement about our price record rather than a claim about what was printed.

The left pane is Houndstone 145. The right pane is a different card, standing in so the two finishes can be held side by side — this card has no Reverse Holofoil on record here. Compare where the light sits, not the cards themselves. If you have motion reduced on your device the tilt stops and only the light remains.

On cards that were given several finishes the gap is wide — an early 1st Edition print can run five to eight times the plain one. Same artwork, same number, and the price is decided by a single mark under the picture.

Houndstone 145 carries none of that risk here, because one finish is all this site holds a price for. The flip side is that there is no print premium showing in these figures — what moves this price is the grade and whether the copy is genuine.

How far apart are the Houndstone prints in price?

This name was printed 13 times across different sets. Some share the very same artwork in a different edition; others carry different art or different attacks under the same name. Set, rarity and version, not the Pokémon, decide the gap between them.

A price quoted in euros moves with the exchange rate, and an order that crosses a border can pick up import duty on arrival, so a European total can change place between one day and the next.

Which Pokémon cards moved most since yesterday?

Measured across 30,444 priced cards between August 13, 2026 and August 14, 2026. Cards under $5 and moves under half a percent are left out, because rounding alone can produce them.

Both lists are recalculated once a day, after the source archive is refreshed — the readings compared here are August 13, 2026 against August 14, 2026. Cards under $5 are left out of the ranking, because a one-cent move on a card worth a few cents becomes a double-digit percentage and would bury everything else.

Back to summary

There are 6 other priced prints of this Pokémon. They are listed highest price first, so you can see at once whether the card you are holding is the expensive one.

All 6 priced prints that carry Pokédex #972, highest price first. Card 145 of this page is the one you are reading about. Point at a card to see it full size.Press and hold a card to see it full size.

Turning the page does not change the address of this page — all 6 cards sit on this one page, 50 at a time. Cards with no published image still hold their place in the grid, showing name, set and number, so the count above stays true.

Grouping by the Pokémon answers "is mine the expensive one". Grouping by the exact name answers "am I looking at the print I think I am". The two questions land buyers in very different places, which is why they are kept apart here.

Houndstone 145 price — frequently asked questions

How much is Houndstone 145 worth?

Houndstone 145 has a market price of $2.78, and the cheapest copy on sale is $2.00, read on August 14, 2026. Both figures are for ungraded cards.

Is Houndstone 145 rare?

Houndstone 145 is an Illustration Rare (IR), which means it was pulled from Mega Evolution packs at the rate that rarity is inserted into them. Its supply is set by how many packs were opened, and it carries the set number printed under the picture. Among 11 priced Houndstone prints it sits at number 1, so it sits in the upper third of what this Pokémon costs, which is where the cards people chase are.

Why is another Houndstone selling for much more?

Houndstone was printed in 13 different sets. The artwork looks alike, but the set name and the card number under the picture are different, and so is the price. Check the number before you buy.

Should I get Houndstone graded?

No grading figure for Houndstone 145 is published here. Graded prices and population counts come from paid grading services under commercial plans that are not in use on this site, so the question cannot be answered with data. What can be said is the ungraded price above, which is the floor any grading decision starts from.

Is the German or French Houndstone cheaper?

No. The six European language printings of Houndstone share one product record, so they trade at the same price. Only the Japanese release is a separate card, because Japan uses a different set and numbering system.

Does tournament play affect what Houndstone 145 sells for?

Yes, and mostly by keeping it out. Houndstone 145 is legal in Unlimited and Standard and Expanded only, so it is not bought to fill a competitive deck — its price is set by collectors instead, which is why it moves with condition and print rather than with the season's results.

Do these Houndstone prices include shipping or tax?

No. Every figure on this page is the listed price of Houndstone 145 itself. Shipping, import duty and marketplace fees are added on top by the seller.

How often does the Houndstone 145 price update?

Once a day. The Houndstone 145 archive behind this page holds 323 daily readings, the oldest from September 26, 2025 and the newest from August 14, 2026.
