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

0 of the 164 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.

Which Primal Clash 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. 55 of the 164 cards in Primal Clash 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 164 Primal Clash cards on file. "Typical price" is the middle price inside that row.

The most common rarity alone covers 30.5% 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.

Primal Clash prints 7 rarities, and the top three fill 69.5% of the set between them. The other 4 split the remaining 50 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 30 cards, and the thinnest type on file is Darkness with 3. A gap of 27 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 Primal Clash Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Primal Clash 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.

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.

Half of these cards sit between 70 and 140 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

47 of the 164 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.

Each track is the whole of the 164 Primal Clash cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.

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. 47 of the 164 cards here sit at that level, which is the argument for packing switch cards alongside them.

At the other end, 3 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 133 cards. The remaining 31 print no retreat cost at all — they never stand in the active spot, so they never retreat.

Which Primal Clash Pokémon cards moved most this year

The set line is made of single cards, and they do not all move together. These are the two ends of that spread over the last twelve months.

Counted on the 59 cards that carried a price on both the first and the last reading, so a card that only appeared recently is not in here.

Primal Clash Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Primal Clash Pokémon cards are there?

There are 164 Primal Clash cards in this archive, and 164 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 Primal Clash Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $1.03. Across the 164 priced cards the range runs from $0.33 to $315.18, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

What is the most expensive Primal Clash Pokémon card?

Primal Kyogre-EX 149 from Primal Clash, at $315.18. It is 306× the typical price of the group.

Are Primal Clash Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 93 of 145 sets, with 52 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 164 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.8%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Primal Clash Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 164 of the 164 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 Primal Clash Pokémon card?

The list on this page holds the 50 most expensive of them, dearest first, and each card opens its own price page. The remaining 114 carry no published price, which is why they are not drawn.

How often are Primal Clash Pokémon card prices updated?

Prices are read once a day from public marketplace listings. The figures on this page were read on August 14, 2026. Which cards belong to this group comes from openly published card files and changes only when a new set is added.

Are Primal Clash Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Primal Clash card rose from $0.78 to $1.03, a change of +32.1%. 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 Primal Clash Pokémon card cost?

One in four Primal Clash cards costs $0.62 or less and the cheapest on file is $0.33. Three in four cost $5.18 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Which Primal Clash Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Are Primal Clash Pokémon cards legal in tournaments?

4 of the 164 Primal Clash cards are legal in Standard today and 162 in Expanded — 2.4% and 98.8% of the group. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year even though the cards do not change.

What are Primal Clash Pokémon cards weak to?

Before you rely on these figures

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Primal Clash 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.
