Most Zoroark cards are inexpensive commons of the secondary market, but a handful of printings genuinely stand out as chase cards worth real money.

Secondary-market prices move constantly, so every figure below is an approximate snapshot pulled from recent auction data and price-tracking sites, not a fixed number.

Grading has an outsized effect on Zoroark prices specifically, since several of its chase prints show a huge gap between a raw copy and a gem-mint graded one.

Here's where the real value actually sits across Zoroark's printing history.

Zoroark 102/99 Next Destinies: The Character's Signature Secret Rare

The Next Destinies secret rare, numbered 102/99, is the single most recognized Zoroark chase card among long-time collectors. Recent market data puts raw copies in roughly the $200 to $400 range depending on condition and listing, with PSA 10 copies trading noticeably higher.

Graded PSA 10 examples have recently changed hands anywhere from roughly $1,200 to over $2,100 depending on the specific sale and pricing source, a gap of 5 to 10 times the raw price. That spread makes this one of the clearer cases in the Zoroark line where grading alone moves real money.

Greninja & Zoroark-GX TAG TEAM: Three Tiers of Value

Unbroken Bonds' TAG TEAM print comes in three distinct value tiers. The standard Ultra Rare holo at 107/214 trades roughly in the $35 to $55 range raw, with PSA 10 copies reported around the $70 to $500 range depending on the sale.

The Full Art alternate-art version at 201/214 commands noticeably more, with PSA 10 sales reported as high as roughly $1,700, while the Secret Rare rainbow print at 222/214 has sold raw in the $85 range with PSA 10 copies around $500. Three different rarity tiers of the same card text means the art treatment, not the gameplay, is driving the price gap.

N's Zoroark ex: A Newer Chase Card Still Finding Its Price

Because N's Zoroark ex only debuted in 2025, its market is younger and less settled than Zoroark's older prints. The Special Illustration Rare at 185/159 has recently sold in the roughly $45 to $50 range.

Interestingly, the Hyper Rare gold version at 189/159 has recently traded lower, around $15, which runs against the usual assumption that a gold hyper rare automatically outprices an illustration rare. Pull rate and visual appeal, not just rarity label, are driving that gap for now.

Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR: Modest Value Despite a Flashy Rarity Tier

Hisuian Zoroark VSTAR's English promo print currently trades for a modest amount, often under $2 raw, despite carrying VSTAR's higher-tier status. The Japanese VSTAR Universe Special Art Rare at 234/172 is a more collector-oriented print, though single-card pricing data for it is thinner than for the English mainline prints.

This is a useful reminder that rarity tier and secondary-market price don't always move together. A card's print run size and overall demand for that specific set matter more than which rarity bucket it technically belongs to.

What Actually Drives Zoroark's Value

Scarcity of the secret-tier pull within a given set is the single biggest factor, since every Zoroark set printed far more of the common and uncommon versions than the chase-tier ones. Nostalgia for a specific era, like the original GX run, also keeps certain prints in steady demand years after release.

Population reports from grading companies matter too: a print with very few PSA 10 copies in existence will command a premium disproportionate to how good the card is in actual gameplay.

Grading's Effect on Zoroark Prices

The gap between a raw card and a PSA 10 copy varies enormously depending on the specific print, but Zoroark's secret-tier cards consistently show some of the largest multiples in this guide. The Next Destinies secret rare's roughly 5 to 10 times grading premium is a clear example.

Not every Zoroark print rewards grading equally, though. Lower-value commons and uncommons rarely justify the cost of submission, since the grading fee alone can exceed the card's total raw value.

Buying Strategy: Raw vs. Graded for a Zoroark Chase Card

Buying raw and grading a card yourself only makes sense when the card is genuinely gem-mint already, since a lower grade can mean losing money relative to the raw purchase price plus grading fees. Buying an already-graded PSA 10 skips that risk entirely, at the cost of paying the full premium upfront.

For most collectors chasing a specific Zoroark print as a long-term hold rather than a quick flip, buying pre-graded from a reputable seller is the lower-risk path, and a magnetic slab case is worth having ready the moment the graded copy arrives.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Treating any single quoted price as fixed rather than a moving market snapshot.
  • Assuming a higher rarity label always means a higher secondary-market price.
  • Submitting a low-value common or uncommon for grading without checking the fee math first.
  • Buying a raw chase card and assuming it will grade PSA 10 without close inspection first.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the most valuable standard Zoroark card?

The Next Destinies secret rare at 102/99 is the most recognized chase print among collectors.

Does the Greninja & Zoroark-GX TAG TEAM have more than one valuable version?

Yes, the Full Art alternate-art and Secret Rare prints both command more than the standard Ultra Rare.

Is N's Zoroark ex a safe long-term value bet?

It's too new to say with confidence; its market is still settling compared to older Zoroark prints.

Does a higher rarity tier guarantee a higher price?

No, pull rate and collector demand for that specific print matter more than the rarity label alone.

Is grading always worth it for a Zoroark card?

Only for prints already valuable enough raw that the grading fee makes financial sense.

Chase the Chase Cards With Eyes Open

Zoroark's real value sits in a small handful of secret-tier prints, not across the entire line.

Once a chase card is in hand, a slab bumper case keeps a graded copy safe from shelf drops and daily handling.
