How much is a Rotom Pokémon card worth?

The typical Rotom card costs $0.86. Across the 50 of them that carry a price, the cheapest is $0.17 and the dearest is $115.00 — Wash Rotom SM94, at $115.00. That spread is why the group price is a starting point and not a valuation of any one card.

Card facts are read from openly published card files; prices are read once a day from public marketplace listings into this site's own archive. Figures on this page were read on August 14, 2026.

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.

Rotom Pokémon cards at a glance

  • What this group is. 50 cards share the Pokédex number Rotom. 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 $0.86. Across the 50 priced cards the range runs $0.17 to $115.00.
  • Where it stands. No. 194 of 206 Pokémon by typical price, with 12 of them cheaper.
  • What the cards are like. They average 97 HP and 55 maximum damage, and are most often weak to Fighting.
  • What is listed below. Every one of the 50 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.

Which Rotom cards share a name across several printings?

49 of the 50 cards listed above are reprints of just 8 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 Rotom Pokémon card prices are spread

One number cannot describe a group whose cards run from a few dollars to several thousand. These four points and the bands under them show the shape of it.

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

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

The group price says what an ordinary Rotom 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 Rotom cards into kinds, and each kind plays by different rules.

How much HP and damage Rotom Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Rotom 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.

Which Rotom 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.

Counted on the 17 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 Rotom 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 Rotom collection is what it costs to get in.

How much is a Rotom Pokémon card worth?
