Which Grimer cards share a name across several printings?

22 of the 25 cards listed above are reprints of just 2 names. Buying by name alone is how people end up with the wrong printing, because these share a name but not a set, a rarity or a price.

How much HP and damage Grimer Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Grimer card prints the same number or they run from one end of the scale to the other. These five points show which of the two is happening.

Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.

Each track is the whole of the 25 Grimer cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.

The four rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.

Which Grimer Pokémon cards moved most this year

The group line is made of single cards, and they do not all move together. These are the two ends of that spread over the last twelve months.

Biggest risers over 12 months

Biggest fallers over 12 months

Counted on the 9 cards that carried a price on both the first and the last reading, so a card that only appeared recently is not in here.

The cheapest Grimer Pokémon cards you can buy

How Grimer compares with the other Pokémon

A price on its own says nothing until you know what the group next to it costs. This is where Grimer sits among the 206 Pokémon on file.

"Which Pokémon is the most expensive" has three different answers depending on what you measure, so this section keeps them apart.

Ranked by its single dearest card, Grimer is number 182 of 206 Pokémon, on Team Rocket Returns #56 at $54.73. By card count it is number 182, and by the price of an ordinary card number 191 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

Grimer Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Grimer Pokémon cards are there?

There are 25 Grimer cards in this archive, and 25 of them carry a price. The Pokédex number ties every print of the same Pokémon together, whatever the set is called and whatever extra words the card name carries. Grouping by the number keeps prints of one Pokémon in one place instead of scattering them by name.

How much is a Grimer Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $1.03. Across the 25 priced cards the range runs from $0.15 to $54.73, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

Grimer 56 from Team Rocket Returns, at $54.73. It is 53× the typical price of the group.

Are Grimer Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 191 of 206 Pokémon, with 15 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 25 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.1%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Grimer Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 25 of the 25 carry a price on file. The rest have never been listed at a price this archive could read, so they are counted in the card total but left out of every price figure rather than guessed at.

Where can I see every Grimer Pokémon card?

The list on this page holds the 25 most expensive of them, dearest first, and each card opens its own price page. The remaining 0 carry no published price, which is why they are not drawn.

How often are Grimer Pokémon card prices updated?

Prices are read once a day from public marketplace listings. The figures on this page were read on August 14, 2026. Which cards belong to this group comes from openly published card files and changes only when a new set is added.

Are Grimer Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Grimer card rose from $0.53 to $1.03, a change of +94.3%. That is the middle of the whole group, so it describes an ordinary card of this kind rather than the headline one at the top.

How much does a cheap Grimer Pokémon card cost?

One in four Grimer cards costs $0.40 or less and the cheapest on file is $0.15. Three in four cost $4.44 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

What is the highest HP on a Grimer Pokémon card?

What are Grimer Pokémon cards weak to?

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Grimer cards, taken from a daily snapshot of public marketplace listings read on August 14, 2026. They are not offers, they exclude shipping, duty and marketplace fees, and they move. Counts cover only the English cards this site holds on file. Graded prices, population counts, sealed product values and pack odds are not published on this site because no free commercial source provides them.
