Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards at a glance
- What this group is. 336 cards share the mechanic Pokémon Tool. A mechanic is the special kind a card is printed as — V, VMAX and ex among Pokémon, Item, Supporter and Stadium among Trainers — recorded with each card in the card files this site reads. Evolution stages are counted on their own, and a plain card carries no mechanic at all, so this axis covers only the part of the archive that has one.
- What they cost. The typical card is $0.55. Across the 328 priced cards the range runs $0.06 to $39.66.
- Where it stands. No. 28 of 28 mechanics by typical price, with 0 of them cheaper.
- What is listed below. The 50 most expensive of the 328 cards that carry a price, each with its own price page. Cards without a price are counted in the total but are not listed.
- When it was read. Every figure on this page comes from the archive as it stood on August 14, 2026.

Each row compares the middle price of the whole group on two days. It is not the change of any single card — a card can fall while the group rises, which is what the movers list below shows.
The typical Pokémon Tool card rose from $0.45 to $0.55 over the 11 months on file — +22.2%. A rising middle means the ordinary card of this group got dearer, not just the headline one at the top of the list.
How Pokémon Tool Pokémon card prices are spread
Each half circle is the whole price range of the 328 priced Pokémon Tool cards, from $0.06 to $39.66, with the tenfold steps evenly spaced. The last one is read differently — it counts cards rather than dollars, and says so in its own label.
How every Pokémon Tool card with a price falls into price bands — 328 cards counted, not just the ones drawn above. Each track is the whole group, so the empty part of a bar is the share that sits outside that band.
The longest bar is where an ordinary Pokémon Tool card actually sits. Bands read the market price of each card on August 14, 2026.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Under $1 | 62.5% | 205 cards |
| $1 to $5 | 22.9% | 75 cards |
| $5 to $20 | 13.1% | 43 cards |
| $20 to $50 | 1.5% | 5 cards |
| Figure | All priced cards | The 50 listed above |
|---|---|---|
| Cards counted | 328 | 50 |
| Cheapest | $0.06 | $4.97 |
| Cheaper quarter, up to | $0.29 | — |
| Typical (median) | $0.55 | — |
| Dearer quarter, from | $2.63 | — |
| Dearest tenth, from | $6.65 | — |
| Average | $2.35 | — |
| Dearest | $39.66 | $39.66 |
The two columns are different groups of cards, not two readings of the same one — the right column is the dearest end of the left one. "Typical" is the middle price, which half the cards sit below; "average" is pulled upward by the few very expensive cards, which is why the two differ.
The average price of a Pokémon Tool card is $2.35 while the typical one is $0.55. The gap between those two numbers is the shape of this group: a small number of very expensive cards is dragging the average far above what most cards actually cost.
What three quarters of the 328 priced Pokémon Tool cards cost
One in four Pokémon Tool cards costs $0.29 or less, half cost $0.55 or less, and three in four cost $2.63 or less. Only the top quarter runs past $2.63, and the dearest tenth starts at $6.65.
See the dearest Rocky Helmet — $39.66When were Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards printed, and are the old ones worth more?
Bar length is that year against the busiest year for Pokémon Tool cards, and the figure beside each year is its share of all 336 of them.
Years are left in printing order rather than sorted by size, because the shape of the run over time is what this chart is for.

Back to summaryHow much HP and damage Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards print
| Measure | Lowest | Lower quarter | Typical | Upper quarter | Highest | Cards counted |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Biggest attack | 10 | 100 | 200 | 240 | 350 | 11 |
Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
The largest printed damage number on each of the 11 Pokémon Tool cards that print one. The typical card hits for 200. Bar length is that number against the hardest hitter in the group.
Half of these cards hit between 100 and 240. Attack text that adds a condition is not counted here — only the printed number.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Lowest | 2.9% of the highest | 10 damage |
| Lower quarter | 28.6% of the highest | 100 damage |
| Typical | 57.1% of the highest | 200 damage |
| Upper quarter | 68.6% of the highest | 240 damage |

Can you still play Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards, and what do they cost to retreat?
| Question | Cards | Share of the group |
|---|---|---|
| Legal in Standard today | 101 | 30.1% |
| Legal in Expanded today | 290 | 86.3% |
| Cards with an Ability | 2 | 0.6% |
| Cards with a special rule | 336 | 100.0% |
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 336 Pokémon Tool cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The 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.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Legal in Standard today | 30.1% | 101 cards |
| Legal in Expanded today | 86.3% | 290 cards |
| Cards with an Ability | 0.6% | 2 cards |
| Cards with a special rule | 100.0% | 336 cards |
Which Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards moved most this year
92 Pokémon Tool cards tracked across the yearSee the group line
A group line and a card line are not the same thing. The Pokémon Tool group rose over this window, yet the cards above ran from -65.9% to +1,036.1% — which is why a figure taken from the group tells you what to expect, and only the card page tells you what happened.
The cheapest Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards you can buy
Read from the same daily price archive as the rest of this page. A low price usually means the card is common rather than that it is a bargain.

How Pokémon Tool compares with the other mechanics
28 mechanics in totalSee them all
Pokémon Tool is No. 28 of 28 mechanics by typical price, with 0 of them cheaper and 27 dearer. Rank is not the same as scarcity: a group can rank high because a handful of its cards are chased, while most of it stays affordable — the price ladder above shows which of those two is happening here.
How much energy do Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards need to attack?
Pokémon Tool Pokémon cards — energy asked for by the cheapest printed attack, 22 cards counted
Each symbol is one Energy card of any type, which is how the cost is recorded: as a number of cards rather than a list of types. Cards that print no attack are left out of this count rather than entered as zero.

Damage per HP is that group's average biggest attack divided by its average HP: a larger number means the group hits harder for the size it prints. Both averages are counted only across the cards that carry the number at all, and Trainer and Energy cards carry neither. Only groups large enough to have their own page are listed.

Before you rely on these figures
Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Pokémon Tool 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.
