The 50 most expensive Team Rocket cards on file, dearest first. The badge on each card is its market price.

0 of the 83 cards on file carry no published price, so they are counted in every total on this page but are not drawn here rather than shown with a guessed figure.

The grid above runs dearest first. This list runs in printing order — by card number inside the set — so a card can be found the way it sits in a binder rather than by what it costs.

Each row opens that card's own price page.

Which Team Rocket cards share a name across several printings?

16 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.

A wide spread of types means a set can supply the start of almost any deck. A set that leans on two or three types only helps those decks.

the real reason to run one

A rule box card carries a printed rule that hands the opponent an extra prize card when it is knocked out. 15 of the 83 cards in Team Rocket carry one.

The count is read from the printed rule on the card face, so it covers ex, V, GX and every other rule box wording without needing a list of names.

Counted across all 83 Team Rocket cards on file. "Typical price" is the middle price inside that row.

The most common rarity alone covers 28.9% of the set. The thicker that layer is, the less it costs to put a first deck together — the frame gets built out of cards that fall out of packs, and the scarce ones are kept for the slots that decide a game.

Team Rocket prints 5 rarities, and the top three fill 78.3% of the set between them. The other 2 split the remaining 18 cards, which is the usual shape: the scarcer the tier, the more tiers there are and the fewer cards sit in each.

By energy type the set leans on Grass with 15 cards, and the thinnest type on file is Lightning with 7. A gap of 8 cards between the widest and the narrowest type is what decides whether this set can start a deck of any colour or only feeds two of them.

How much HP and damage Team Rocket Pokémon cards print

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

6 of the 83 cards on file cost three energy or more to retreat, which is where a Pokémon starts to be stuck in the active spot.

Cards that print no retreat cost at all are not Pokémon, so they never retreat and are counted in "the rest".

These rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so each bar is read on its own.

A card that costs three energy or more to retreat is stuck in practice: paying it empties the board of the energy that was meant to attack. 6 of the 83 cards here sit at that level, which is the argument for packing switch cards alongside them.

At the other end, 9 cards retreat for free. Those are the ones that open a game, because moving them out costs nothing that was going to be spent on an attack.

The rows above add up to 68 cards. The remaining 15 print no retreat cost at all — they never stand in the active spot, so they never retreat.

Team Rocket Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Team Rocket Pokémon cards are there?

There are 83 Team Rocket cards in this archive, and 83 of them carry a price. A set is the expansion a card was printed in, and every card in the card files this site reads names exactly one.

How much is a Team Rocket Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $12.81. Across the 83 priced cards the range runs from $1.18 to $455.66, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

Before you rely on these figures

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