About the Ivysaur card
Ivysaur is card 134 of 188 in Mega Evolution, released in September 2025, an Illustration Rare. It is a Stage 1 Grass-type with 110 HP.
As a Stage 1, it evolves from Bulbasaur, which places Ivysaur deeper in its line and means most collectors hold it alongside the cards it evolves from.
About Ivysaur in the Pokémon world
The middle stage of the Bulbasaur line. The bud on its back has swollen and begun to open. The transitional stage in a line collectors usually buy as a set. Almost always purchased as part of a Bulbasaur to Venusaur evolution run rather than as a standalone, which keeps prices honest.
What is Ivysaur worth?
Ivysaur is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Mega Evolution's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Mega Evolution holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Ivysaur before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Grading Ivysaur comes down to the holo surface and the borders. The era's foil scratches easily, so even a pack-fresh Ivysaur can drop from a 10 to a 9 on a single hairline. Inspect the window at an angle and the corners against the frame.
If you are collecting Ivysaur
Buying Ivysaur well means pricing the exact print and grade, not the card name. Match the rarity tier to the comp before you buy. Always see the holo surface in good light first.
