The PokémonPokédex No. 146

How much is a Moltres card worth?

It depends which one. We know the price of 31 Moltres cards: here they are, dearest first. Each number is what that exact card actually sold for on average over the last seven days at Cardmarket, Europe's big card marketplace — prices are in euros because that is how it trades.

Two Moltres cards can be worth wildly different amounts, and that is normal: they are different cards. Every set prints its own version, often at several rarities, and a rare version printed in small numbers can be worth a hundred times the common one. The code and number at the bottom of the card tell you which one you are holding.

The 7-day average is what the card actually traded at this week at Cardmarket. Read on 5 September 2026.

Our prices are for cards traded as they are at Cardmarket. Graded cards — the ones scored and sealed in a case by specialist companies — sell on a different market, and we do not measure that one.

Our catalogue also knows 6 more versions of Moltres with no price reading yet. They join the list the day their price can be read.

There are also 5 Moltres cards we are leaving without a price, and you deserve to know why. Cardmarket keeps those cards together under a single entry. The price sitting there is a real one. Trouble is, nothing tells us which of the cards it belongs to, so we hand it to none of them. The day each card gets an entry of its own, its price turns up here by itself.
