Torchic Pokémon cards at a glance

  • What this group is. 31 cards share the Pokédex number Torchic. 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 $6.98. Across the 27 priced cards the range runs $0.29 to $68.73.
  • Where it stands. No. 92 of 206 Pokémon by typical price, with 114 of them cheaper.
  • What the cards are like. They average 54 HP and 20 maximum damage, and are most often weak to Water.
  • What is listed below. Every one of the 31 cards that carries a price, each with its own price page. The other 4 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.

How Torchic 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 Torchic cards.

Every figure about money on this page — the typical price, the quarters, the bands, the ladder — is counted on those 27, while every figure about how many cards exist is counted on all 31.

How much HP and damage Torchic Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Torchic 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 31 Torchic 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 Torchic Pokémon cards you can buy

How Torchic 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 Torchic 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, Torchic is number 170 of 206 Pokémon, on Holon Phantoms #83 at $68.73. By card count it is number 95, and by the price of an ordinary card number 92 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".

How many Torchic Pokémon cards are there?

There are 31 Torchic cards in this archive, and 27 of them carry a price.

Are Torchic Pokémon cards going up in value?

How much does a cheap Torchic Pokémon card cost?
