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

21 of the 100 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 Crystal Guardians cards share a name across several printings?

10 of the 50 cards listed above are reprints of just 5 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. 33 of the 100 cards in Crystal Guardians 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 100 Crystal Guardians cards on file. "Typical price" is the middle price inside that row.

The most common rarity alone covers 30.0% 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.

Crystal Guardians prints 6 rarities, and the top three fill 75.0% of the set between them. The other 3 split the remaining 25 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 Water with 15 cards, and the thinnest type on file is Darkness with 3. A gap of 12 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 Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards print

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

Resistance cuts incoming damage from that type. Only some Crystal Guardians cards print one, which is why this count is smaller than the card total.

6 of the 100 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".

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.

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 100 cards here sit at that level, which is the argument for packing switch cards alongside them.

At the other end, 2 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 82 cards. The remaining 18 print no retreat cost at all — they never stand in the active spot, so they never retreat.

Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards are there?

There are 100 Crystal Guardians cards in this archive, and 79 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. Sorting by set puts each release back together the way it was sold, so a card can be read next to the cards it shared a pack with.

How much is a Crystal Guardians Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $27.25. Across the 79 priced cards the range runs from $2.56 to $1,500.00, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

What is the most expensive Crystal Guardians Pokémon card?

Alakazam ★ 99 from Crystal Guardians, at $1,500.00. It is 55× the typical price of the group.

Are Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 14 of 145 sets, with 131 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 100 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.5%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 79 of the 100 carry a price on file. The rest have never been listed at a price this archive could read, so they are counted in the card total but left out of every price figure rather than guessed at.

Where can I see every Crystal Guardians Pokémon card?

How often are Crystal Guardians Pokémon card prices updated?

Are Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Crystal Guardians card rose from $8.13 to $27.25, a change of +235.2%. That is the middle of the whole group, so it describes an ordinary card of this kind rather than the headline one at the top.

How much does a cheap Crystal Guardians Pokémon card cost?

One in four Crystal Guardians cards costs $12.79 or less and the cheapest on file is $2.56. Three in four cost $62.30 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Which Crystal Guardians Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Crystal Guardians 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.
