What makes Squirtle valuable
- A $259.99 card with rarely listed status keeps buyer competition steady.
- Its Water typing means Squirtle has a dual collector-and-player audience.
- Classic-era (2004) cards have a dedicated collector base and no prospect of new supply.
- Common is a common-to-mid rarity, so value depends more on condition, variant and playability than on scarcity alone.
- The Toshinao Aoki artwork gives Squirtle appeal beyond pure playability.
Buying & selling Squirtle
- FireRed & LeafGreen was released in 2004; sealed product from this era is limited, so raw singles appreciate with collector demand.
- Track the Cardmarket 7- and 30-day averages (€14.08 and €7.91) to time entries and exits.
- Because it is a Pokémon card, Squirtle has both collector and player demand — a broader buyer pool than purely collectible cards.
- If you are buying to resell, model marketplace fees first — the $259.99 value is pre-fee, and the seller-fee calculator shows the net take-home per platform.
- For Squirtle, confirm the exact print variant before buying: Reverse Holofoil, Normal prices differ, and listings often mix them.
