  • What they cost. The typical card is $10.74. Across the 32 priced cards the range runs $0.26 to $351.99.
  • Where it stands. No. 70 of 206 Pokémon by typical price, with 136 of them cheaper.

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 32 Scyther 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.

The cheapest Scyther Pokémon cards you can buy

How Scyther 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 Scyther 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, Scyther is number 65 of 206 Pokémon, on Team Rocket Returns #102 at $351.99. By card count it is number 88, and by the price of an ordinary card number 70 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

There are 32 Scyther cards in this archive, and 32 of them carry a price.
