Across the Simplified Chinese sets Pidgeot is 3 products, with Collect 151 alone printing 3 of the 7 cards. The top card is Pidgeot ex #146 at $35, and that one card holds 100 percent of everything the character is worth.
What makes the shape worth reading is where the cards sit. 3 of the 7 Pidgeot cards come out of Collect 151 at #18, and that one line supplies 0 of the 1 ranked cards. The top of the list is not from that line at all: Pidgeot ex from Reward Round takes first place at $35.
How this list was built
Three rules, applied in this order.
- The card has to sit in a Chinese-only set. Every card below carries a set code ending in C — 151C, csv4C and CSM2aC. That trailing letter marks a Simplified Chinese print run, and it is the dependable way to tell a Chinese-only card from a card that merely happens to be printed in Chinese. Reading a Chinese set code from end to end covers the whole system.
- The card has to have a tracked PSA 10 value. 7 Pidgeot cards exist across these sets and 1 have a PSA 10 price on record. The 6 that do not are Pidgeot #18, Pidgeot [Master Ball] #18 and 4 more — none of them has a graded sold record yet, and a card with no price cannot be ranked.
- The card has to be a Pokémon card. Sealed product, trainer cards and energy are out of scope.
One exclusion applies here as it does to every character ranking we publish. Promo printings of Pidgeot exist in Chinese and they are not on this list. Promo numbering is shared across the Chinese branches — the same promo number appears in Traditional Chinese product as well — so a promo number on its own cannot establish which branch a card came from. Everything below sits inside a numbered set whose code ends in C, which is unambiguous.
The one card, ranked
1. Pidgeot ex #146 — Reward Round (csv4C) — $35
Raw $2.25 · grade 9 $14.10
First on the list and the card that breaks the Collect 151 sequence. Its raw price of $2.25 multiplies 15.6 times into the graded value.
What the ranking shows
Pidgeot splits into 1 bands across 1 priced cards, and the top band is where the ranking is decided.
| Band | Cards | Combined PSA 10 value | Share of total |
|---|---|---|---|
| $35 — ranked 1 | 1 | $35 | 100.0% |
| Every priced Pidgeot card | 1 | $35 | 100% |
Two further patterns run across the whole group.
One card holds most of the value. At $35 it is 100 percent of everything the character is worth in these sets, and the combined total of the other 0 ranked cards does not reach it.
6 of the 7 cards have never traded enough to be priced. They are tracked in the catalogue but carry no PSA 10 value, so the ranking covers the priced part of the checklist rather than all of it.
Where Pidgeot is printed
| Product | Set code | Pidgeot cards | With a PSA 10 value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Collect 151 | 151C | 3 | 0 |
| Reward Round | csv4C | 3 | 1 |
| CSM2aC | CSM2aC | 1 | 0 |
| Total | 7 | 1 |
Collect 151 supplies 3 of the 7 Pidgeot cards and none of the $35 total, because the expensive cards are inside that line. Collect 151 prints Pidgeot as one of the original 151, and those prints are priced generously relative to the Gem Pack foils. 6 of the 7 cards carry no price at all, so the checklist in the table above is longer than the ranking it supports. If the goal is the group rather than the single card, completing a Simplified Chinese set sets out what a full run involves.
If you want one card
- One card, no budget limit: Pidgeot ex #146 from Reward Round at $35. It is the highest-priced Pidgeot card in these sets.
Frequently asked questions
How many Pidgeot cards are there in Simplified Chinese?
7, across 3 products. 1 of the 7 carry a tracked PSA 10 value.
What is the most valuable Pidgeot card in Simplified Chinese?
Pidgeot ex #146 from Reward Round, tracked at $35 as a PSA 10 and $2.25 raw. It is the single priced card under this name in these sets.
Which product holds the expensive Pidgeot cards?
Collect 151. It supplies 0 of the 1 ranked cards and 0 percent of the combined value, so the rankings follow the product rather than the character.
Is a PSA 10 worth the premium over a raw card?
Raw-to-graded multiples across the list run from 15.6 to 15.6, so on most cards the graded premium is real. Where the multiple is lowest, the raw price already carries most of the value. Grading outcomes are never certain, and nothing here is a prediction about what any individual card will grade at.
Do the Collect 151 prints come in more than one treatment?
Yes. A number in Collect 151 exists as a plain card, a reverse holo and a Master Ball reverse holo. Only the plain print usually trades enough to have a price attached. The series guide explains the two reverse holo patterns.
Other character rankings

Beyond the single character, the ten most popular Chinese-exclusive cards ranks across Pokémon, the price ladder sorts the same catalogue into bands, and the collector’s index lists every Pokémon that appears in the Chinese-only sets with its card count, priced count and top value.
