Neo Revelation Pop Report (2026): PSA 10 Populations, Home of the Rarest WOTC Card
On this page
There are 463 PSA 10 Neo Revelation cards in existence across the 7 printings with resolved population chains — the thinnest tracked gem supply of the Neo era, and the set that holds the crown: the 1st Edition Ampharos, at pop 10, is the rarest tracked card of the entire WOTC era. This page is the census behind that claim — every resolved PSA 10 count in the set with the gem-mint price next to it. PSA's own population report now sits behind a login; ours is free, built on exact GemRate population chains, and refreshed monthly. It is one chapter of the full WOTC pop report — and the cost side of the same data lives in what a complete PSA 10 Neo Revelation set costs.
How Many PSA 10 Neo Revelation Cards Exist?
463 PSA 10s across the printings whose population chains resolve — 6 exact GemRate chains plus one modeled estimate (marked †). For scale: a single card in Base Set (the Unlimited Charizard) has more PSA 10s than this entire set. The other 16 printings we price trade too thinly for an exact chain — their gems exist, but no verified count does, so they appear as dashes in the printing table below rather than fake zeroes. The full resolved census, scarcest first:
| Card | PSA 10 pop | PSA 10 price | Gem market cap | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | 2001 Neo Revelation Unlimited Crobat #4 | 3† | $276 | $828 |
 | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Ampharos #1 | 10 | $5,600 | $56,000 |
 | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Houndoom #8 | 29 | $16,000 | $464,000 |
 | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Jumpluff #9 | 60 | $1,779 | $106,740 |
 | 2001 Neo Revelation Unlimited Shining Gyarados #65 | 117 | $5,160 | $603,720 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Gyarados #65 | 118 | $18,000 | $2,124,000 |
 | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Magikarp #66 | 126 | $30,200 | $3,805,200 |
One reading note: the pop-3† Unlimited Crobat tops the table, but the dagger matters — that is a grading-rate model, not a verified chain, on a $276 card almost nobody submits. The scarcest exact count in the set — and the story of this page — is the pop-10 Ampharos.
What Is the Rarest Neo Revelation Card in PSA 10?
The 1st Edition Ampharos #1, at pop 10 — and not just the rarest card in Neo Revelation. Among every WOTC printing with an exact population chain, it is the single rarest gem we track, the #1 card on the 50 rarest WOTC cards list — rarer than the pop-12 Reverse Gengar that sold for $408,000, rarer than any Charizard. And it costs $5,600. Here is the full grade pyramid that produced those ten gems:
1,105 gradings, 10 tens — a 0.9% gem rate, the hardest in the set. The distribution tells you why: 440 of those submissions came back PSA 8, the classic signature of 2001 print quality meeting twenty-five years of binder wear. The whole pop-10 supply is worth about $56,000 — less than one Blissey comp from the same set. Its market, live:

126 PSA 10 1st Edition Shining Magikarp, 118 1st Edition Shining Gyarados, and 117 Unlimited Shining Gyarados— the deepest gem pools in the set, which is exactly what you'd expect for the first Shining cards ever printed: everyone who pulled one graded it. The Unlimited Gyarados is the most-graded card in Neo Revelation at 8,028 total gradings, of which just 117 earned a 10 — a 1.5% gem rate. Scarce by any normal standard; by this set's standard, they are the liquid names. Here is the most-graded card's market:

On the one card with exact chains in both printings, the Unlimited is rarer: 117 Unlimited Shining Gyarados versus 118 1st Edition. One copy apart — a statistical tie — yet the stamped version trades at 3.5x the price ($18,000 vs $5,160). The market is pricing the stamp, not the census. The side-by-side counts, where they resolve:
| # | Card | 1st Ed pop 10 | Unlimited pop 10 | Rarer printing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Ampharos | 10 | — | — |
| #4 | Crobat | — | 3† | — |
| #8 | Houndoom | 29 | — | — |
| #9 | Jumpluff | 60 | — | — |
| #65 | Shining Gyarados | 118 | 117 | Unlimited |
| #66 | Shining Magikarp | 126 | — | — |
Those dashes are the honest answer for most of the set: Unlimited Neo Revelation was graded so rarely that seven cards have never even produced a verified Unlimited PSA 10 sale, let alone a deep population. On the priced side of that story, see the complete-set cost breakdown.
Which Neo Revelation Cards Are Hardest to Gem?
The 1st Edition Ampharos, at a 0.9% gem rate — 10 tens from 1,105attempts, the only sub-1% card in the set. Gem rate is the other half of a pop report: not how many 10s exist, but what fraction of all submissions earned one. The set's leaderboard:
| # | Card | Gem rate | PSA 10s / total graded | PSA 10 price | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Ampharos #1 | 0.9% | 10 / 1,105 | $5,600 |
| 2 | | 2001 Neo Revelation Unlimited Shining Gyarados #65 | 1.5% | 117 / 8,028 | $4,905 |
| 3 | | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Houndoom #8 | 1.9% | 29 / 1,532 | $16,000 |
| 4 | | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Gyarados #65 | 5.2% | 118 / 2,290 | $18,000 |
| 5 | | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Magikarp #66 | 6.0% | 126 / 2,106 | $30,200 |
| 6 | | 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Jumpluff #9 | 7.6% | 60 / 792 | $1,779 |
Every card near the top of that list is a card where the PSA 10 is the trophy and the PSA 9 is the market. If you're weighing a raw submission, the PSA 10 value calculator turns these gem rates into expected value.
Is Neo Revelation Scarcity Priced In?
Not evenly — and the spread is the most useful table on this page. Price divided by PSA 10 population is what the market pays per unit of gem supply:
| Card | PSA 10 price | PSA 10 pop | Price per pop unit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Ampharos #1 | $5,600 | 10 | $560 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Houndoom #8 | $16,000 | 29 | $552 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Magikarp #66 | $30,200 | 126 | $240 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Shining Gyarados #65 | $18,000 | 118 | $153 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation Unlimited Shining Gyarados #65 | $4,905 | 117 | $42 |
| 2001 Neo Revelation 1st Edition Jumpluff #9 | $1,779 | 60 | $30 |
The pop-10 Ampharos costs $560 per unit of supply and the pop-29 Houndoom $552; the pop-60 Jumpluff costs $30. Attention, not census data, sets vintage prices — the full ranked list across all fifteen WOTC sets is in the 50 rarest WOTC cards, and the Neo Revelation investing guide weighs scarcity against demand card by card.
Scarcity this extreme also breaks price discovery outright. On 1st Edition Entei and Suicune, no verified PSA 10 sale exists in our archive at all, while their PSA 9 markets stay active ($870 and $960) — the gems are so scarce their prices are simply undiscovered. Read the 9s as floors awaiting a gem sale, never as the 10's value. All told, the 463 resolved gems in this set carry a combined market cap of $7,130,653.
