Vibrava · Phantasmal Flames, what to know.
About the Vibrava card
Numbered 52 of 130 in Phantasmal Flames, released in January 2026, Vibrava is a Common, a Stage 1 Fighting-type carrying 90 HP.
It evolves from Trapinch, so Vibrava is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Vibrava Pokédex entry reads: "Rather than using its underdeveloped wings for flight, it rubs them together, emitting ultrasonic waves to attack its enemies."
What is Vibrava worth?
Vibrava 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 Vibrava before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Vibrava 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 Vibrava
Raw copies of Vibrava are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Vibrava is the practical move.
