The sixteen holos
The sixteen Jungle holos are Clefable, Electrode, Flareon, Jolteon, Kangaskhan, Mr. Mime, Nidoqueen, Pidgeot, Pinsir, Scyther, Snorlax, Vaporeon, Venomoth, Victreebel, Vileplume, and Wigglytuff. They use the classic cosmos pattern and shipped in 1st Edition and Unlimited, with the No Symbol error layered on top from the first print run.
The chase
Scyther leads on play-thinned scarcity, and the three Eeveelutions, Vaporeon, Jolteon, and Flareon, form the chase, with Snorlax close behind. These are the cards that define what a Jungle holo collection costs, and the No Symbol versions of each carry the steepest premiums in the set.
The sleepers
Wigglytuff is the centering test of the set, with a famously tough pattern that makes PSA 10s scarcer than expected and props up its price. Pinsir is a clean, popular holo with steady demand. The rest, from Clefable to Vileplume, are the value end of the run, good entry points into a Jungle holo collection without paying Eeveelution or Scyther money.
Collecting the run
A full sixteen-card holo run in one variant is the canonical Jungle project, and the Eeveelution trio is a popular sub-project on its own. Surface is the grade cap on most cards, and Wigglytuff is the centering challenge. Collectors who want the hardest version of the project chase the No Symbol holos, which turns a sixteen-card run into a genuinely difficult hunt.
Common questions
- How many holo cards are in Jungle?
- Sixteen. They are the Rare Holo tier of the 64-card set and hold almost all of the set value, led by Scyther and the three Eeveelutions, with Snorlax close behind.
- Which Jungle holo is hardest to grade?
- Wigglytuff is the centering test of the set, with a famously tough pattern that makes PSA 10s scarce. Scyther is hard for a different reason: heavy play thinned the high-grade supply.
- Does the No Symbol error apply to all Jungle holos?
- Yes. The No Symbol error from the first print run runs across the whole set, and a No Symbol version of any holo carries a premium, with the steepest premiums on the chase cards.
