Level-Up Pokémon cards — how many are there and what are they worth?

Q: How much is a Level-Up Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $94.61 . Across the 77 priced cards the range runs from $3.42 to $566.33, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

Q: What is the most expensive Level-Up Pokémon card?

Snorlax LV.X 111 from Rising Rivals, at $566.33. It is 6× the typical price of the group.

Q: Are Level-Up Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 1 of 5 stages , with 4 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 78 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.4%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Q: How much does a cheap Level-Up Pokémon card cost?

One in four Level-Up cards costs $61.43 or less and the cheapest on file is $3.42 . Three in four cost $159.26 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Q: Which Level-Up Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Sorted by rarity, Rare Holo LV.X is the dearest kind of Level-Up card: 56 of them are on file and the middle one costs $100.63 . The table on this page lists every rarity in the group beside its own typical price.

There are 78 Level-Up cards on file, 77 of them with a price, and the typical one costs $94.61.

Are Level-Up Pokémon cards going up in value?

This is the middle price of the whole group on each reading day, so it answers the question for Level-Up cards as a group rather than for one card.

Typical Level-Up card price, September 12, 2025 to August 14, 2026

Each point is the middle price of the 77 priced Level-Up cards on that day, read from this site's own archive. The 13 readings drawn above are also listed as text below.

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 Level-Up card rose from $49.91 to $94.61 over the 11 months on file — +89.6%. A rising middle means the ordinary card of this group got dearer, not just the headline one at the top of the list.

How Level-Up Pokémon card prices are spread

One group price cannot describe 77 cards. These figures show how far apart they actually sit.

Each half circle is the whole price range of the 77 priced Level-Up cards, from $3.42 to $566.33, 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.

Dearest	$566.33	$566.33

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 Level-Up card is $131.27 while the typical one is $94.61. The gap between those two numbers is the shape of this group: the cards sit close together, so the average and the typical price say roughly the same thing.

What three quarters of the 77 priced Level-Up cards cost

One in four Level-Up cards costs $61.43 or less, half cost $94.61 or less, and three in four cost $159.26 or less. Only the top quarter runs past $159.26, and the dearest tenth starts at $287.25.

How much HP and damage Level-Up Pokémon cards print

An average hides the shape of a group: it reads the same whether every Level-Up 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.

Level-Up Pokémon cards — how far apart the numbers on the cards sit

HP	90	110	120	130	170	78
Biggest attack	20	50	80	100	240	54

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.

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 78 Level-Up 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.

Which Level-Up Pokémon cards moved most this year

The group moved +89.6%. These are the Level-Up cards inside it that moved furthest in each direction over the same window.

Change between August 14, 2025 and August 14, 2026, for the 73 Level-Up cards that carried a price on both days. Bar length is the size of the move, not its direction.

73 Level-Up cards tracked across the yearSee the group line

A group line and a card line are not the same thing. The Level-Up group rose over this window, yet the cards above ran from +14.0% to +460.3% — 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 Level-Up Pokémon cards you can buy

A group price hides its own floor. These are the 6 least expensive Level-Up cards carrying a price, which is what the group costs to start rather than what its best card costs.

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 Level-Up compares with the other stages

Every stage in this list is ranked by its typical price. The bar is that price against the dearest group, and the highlighted row is where Level-Up sits.

Bar length is the typical price against Level-Up, the dearest stage at $94.61. The row without a link is this group.

5 stages in totalSee them all

Level-Up is No. 1 of 5 stages by typical price, with 4 of them cheaper and 0 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.

The printed rules behind Level-Up Pokémon cards

Every figure on this page counts something printed on a card, and it is the rulebook that gives that number its meaning. These are the lines that decide what a card's evolution stage does, quoted word for word rather than summarised.

“You can attach Energy just once each turn!”Official Pokémon Trading Card Game rulebook · 17,180 cards in this archive fall under this line

“Retreat your Active Pokemon (only once per turn).”Official Pokémon Trading Card Game rulebook · 17,244 cards in this archive fall under this line

How much energy do Level-Up Pokémon cards need to attack?

A card does nothing on the table until it has been paid for in energy. Across the 72 Level-Up cards that print an attack at all, this is what the cheapest attack on each of them asks for.

No energynothing to attach4 cards · 5.6% of the 72 counted

5 energy2 cards · 2.8% of the 72 counted

Level-Up Pokémon cards — energy asked for by the cheapest printed attack, 72 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.

How the stages compare on HP, damage and how hard they hit for their size

Price is one ladder, and the numbers printed on the cards are another. These are the 5 stages side by side, each on its own averages, with Level-Up among them.

Stages compared on what their cards actually print
Evolution stage	Cards	Average HP	Average biggest attack	Damage per HP
Stage 2	1,749	162	102	0.63
Basic	9,991	93	51	0.55
Stage 1	5,102	109	67	0.61
Level-Up	78	121	84	0.69
BREAK	35	150	98	0.65

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.

Back to summary

The dearest and the cheapest Level-Up Pokémon card, side by side

Both of these are Level-Up cards, and one costs 166 times what the other does. That gap is why a single group price is a starting point and not a valuation of any one card.

The other stages, and what each one is made of

The price ladder above ranks these same groups by what they cost. This one shows how big each of them is and what a card from it actually looks like, which is the part a ladder cannot carry.

BREAK35 cards · 150 HP on average · 98 damageFor example: Greninja BREAKTypical card $5.39

Bar length is that group's size against the largest of them, which is 9,991 cards. The card shown on each panel is the dearest one in that group, not a typical one.

Every group listed here is large enough to have a page of its own; smaller ones stay as rows on the page above.

Which Level-Up Pokémon cards hit hardest, type by type

Counting cards tells you which type is common. Counting damage tells you which one is dangerous, and the two answers are not the same: Colorless leads on cards while Colorless leads on damage.

Counted by power rather than by card, the order changes

Level-Up Pokémon cards — frequently asked questions

How many Level-Up Pokémon cards are there?

There are 78 Level-Up cards in this archive, and 77 of them carry a price. The stage is where a card stands in an evolution line, recorded with each card in the card files this site reads. Trainer and energy cards carry no stage, so this axis covers only the Pokémon part of the archive.

How much is a Level-Up Pokémon card worth?

The typical one costs $94.61. Across the 77 priced cards the range runs from $3.42 to $566.33, so the group price is a starting point rather than a valuation of any one card.

What is the most expensive Level-Up Pokémon card?

Snorlax LV.X 111 from Rising Rivals, at $566.33. It is 6× the typical price of the group.

Are Level-Up Pokémon cards rare?

By price they rank No. 1 of 5 stages, with 4 cheaper than this one. By size the group holds 78 of the 20,444 English cards on file, or 0.4%. Those two together are what "rare" usually means in practice — few of them, and dear because of it.

Do all Level-Up Pokémon cards have a price?

No. 77 of the 78 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 Level-Up 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 28 carry no published price, which is why they are not drawn.

How often are Level-Up 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 Level-Up Pokémon cards going up in value?

Over the last 11 months the typical Level-Up card rose from $49.91 to $94.61, a change of +89.6%. 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 Level-Up Pokémon card cost?

One in four Level-Up cards costs $61.43 or less and the cheapest on file is $3.42. Three in four cost $159.26 or less, so the cards past that point are the exception rather than the rule for this group.

Which Level-Up Pokémon cards are worth the most?

Sorted by rarity, Rare Holo LV.X is the dearest kind of Level-Up card: 56 of them are on file and the middle one costs $100.63. The table on this page lists every rarity in the group beside its own typical price.

What is the highest HP on a Level-Up Pokémon card?

The highest printed HP among Level-Up cards is 170, and the lowest is 90. The typical one is 120 HP, with half of them between 110 and 130 — figures counted from the 78 cards in this group that print an HP value.

Are Level-Up Pokémon cards legal in tournaments?

0 of the 78 Level-Up cards are legal in Standard today and 0 in Expanded — 0.0% and 0.0% 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 Level-Up Pokémon cards weak to?

Most often Fire — 13 of the 73 Level-Up cards that print a weakness take double damage from it, with Psychic next at 13 cards. Weakness is printed per card, so the group tendency is a guide and the card itself is the answer.

Are old Level-Up Pokémon cards worth more than new ones?

Not simply by age. Among Level-Up cards the 2007 printings sit at a typical $81.88 and the 2009 ones at $101.98, while the dearest year of all is 2009 at $101.98. Print run and demand decide it, not the date on its own.

Which Level-Up Pokémon card rose the most this year?

Rayquaza C LV.X DP47 from DP Black Star Promos, which went from $80.91 to $453.33 — a change of +460.3% between August 14, 2025 and August 14, 2026. It is one of 73 Level-Up cards that carried a price on both days.

Which sets have Level-Up Pokémon cards?

Level-Up cards appear across 10 sets on file. The largest are DP Black Star Promos (19 cards, typically $81.88), Rising Rivals (9 cards, typically $120.38), Legends Awakened (7 cards, typically $93.33). The full list on this page gives every set beside its card count and typical price.

How these Level-Up figures are collected, and where you can check them

Every figure on this page is counted from the 78 Level-Up cards this site holds on file — 77 of them with a price read once a day from public marketplace listings into this site's own archive.

Note: Prices on this page are asking and market prices for ungraded English Level-Up 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.
