About Clefairy in the Pokémon world
A pink fairy-type Pokémon (originally Normal in Gen 1). Famous for being almost-mascot before Pikachu took the slot in the anime. Base Set holo Clefairy is one of the original 16 holos and trades steadily. Its connection to the early Pokémon marketing makes it a sentimental pick.
What is Clefairy worth?
Clefairy is a Common, so raw copies trade for very little and most of the print run survives. The only real value is in pristine, high-grade copies, where even a Common can reach low triple digits in 1st Edition PSA 10. See the live price above for the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Clefairy before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Clefairy is the most forgiving tier to grade in the set. Centering on the framed border is the usual cap, and the soft cardstock picks up edge whitening easily, but high print runs keep clean copies affordable.
If you are collecting Clefairy
Raw copies of Clefairy are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Clefairy is the practical move.
