About Snorlax in the Pokémon world
A massive Normal-type Pokémon famous for sleeping on roads and blocking the player's path. Jungle holo Snorlax is one of the most-loved Wizards-era cards. Sleeping art and friendly silhouette make it a sentimental marquee.
What is Snorlax worth?
Snorlax is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Lost Origin'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, Lost Origin 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 Snorlax before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Grading Snorlax comes down to the holo surface and the borders. The era's foil scratches easily, so even a pack-fresh Snorlax 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 Snorlax
When you go to buy Snorlax, settle three things in order: the print variant, the condition, and a comp for that exact combination. A blended average across variants will mislead you on Snorlax, so price the specific copy in front of you.
