How much is a Pinsir Pokémon card worth?

The typical Pinsir card costs $1.85. Across the 24 of them that carry a price, the cheapest is $0.20 and the dearest is $85.64 — Pinsir 9, at $85.64. That spread is why the group price is a starting point and not a valuation of any one card.

The middle step counts every card that records a Pokédex number, including Pokémon too small to have a page of their own. That is why its figure is larger than the totals on the Pokédex number list, which only counts the groups it can open.

Pinsir Pokémon cards at a glance

  • What this group is. 24 cards share the Pokédex number Pinsir. 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.
  • What they cost. The typical card is $1.85. Across the 24 priced cards the range runs $0.20 to $85.64.
  • Where it stands. No. 180 of 206 Pokémon by typical price, with 26 of them cheaper.
  • What the cards are like. They average 94 HP and 66 maximum damage, and are most often weak to Fire.
  • What is listed below. Every one of the 24 cards that carries a price, each with its own price page. The other 0 are counted in the total but have no published price, so they are not listed.
  • When it was read. Every figure on this page comes from the archive as it stood on August 14, 2026.

An average hides the shape of a group. These four points say where the money actually sits among Pinsir cards.

What Pinsir Pokémon cards are made of, and which of them hold the value

The group price says what an ordinary Pinsir card costs. These break the group down by card kind, rarity, printing, each row beside its own typical price, so you can tell a cheap card from a dear one before you look it up.

The words printed after the name split Pinsir cards into kinds, and each kind plays by different rules.

How much HP and damage Pinsir Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Pinsir 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 24 Pinsir 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 Pinsir 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 14 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 Pinsir Pokémon cards you can buy

Every list on this page so far has run from the top down. This one runs from the bottom, because the first question of anyone starting a Pinsir collection is what it costs to get in.

The 6 cheapest Pinsir cards on file

Cheapest first. Each card opens its own price page. Prices exclude shipping, which on a card at this level is usually more than the card.

These six together cost $2.13, against $85.64 for the single dearest Pinsir card. The two ends of the same group sit 428× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Pinsir".

How Pinsir 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 Pinsir 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, Pinsir is number 154 of 206 Pokémon, on Jungle #9 at $85.64. By card count it is number 203, and by the price of an ordinary card number 180 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

How many Pinsir Pokémon cards are there?

There are 24 Pinsir cards in this archive, and 24 of them carry a price.

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Pinsir 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.
