Nosepass is one of those quietly cool cards from the Japanese EX Ruby & Sapphire Expansion Pack, released back in 2003, with artwork from Mitsuhiro Arita that gives this rock-nosed little guy a lot more charm than you'd expect. As a 1st Edition Rare numbered 35 in the set, it sits in that sweet spot collectors love: old enough to feel nostalgic, scarce enough to matter. If you're trying to pin down Nosepass value or figure out what a Nosepass price actually looks like today, you're in the right place, though we'll be upfront that hard sale numbers on this one aren't locked in yet.

The collector's take on Nosepass

Is Nosepass worth grading?

Whenever someone asks how much is Nosepass worth, the honest answer depends heavily on condition, and that's really the whole case for grading. A raw, ungraded copy and a PSA 10 gem mint copy of the same card can live in completely different worlds price-wise, because grading strips out all the guesswork about centering, edges, corners and surface. The catch is that gem mint is genuinely hard to hit on cards from this era, print quality back then wasn't always kind to sharp corners, and grading fees plus shipping and turnaround time are a real cost you're taking on with no guarantee of the result. If your copy already looks clean under a loupe, grading can absolutely be worth exploring, just go in knowing it's a bet, not a sure thing.

How rare is Nosepass?

We don't have official population figures to point to for Nosepass in either Grade 9 or PSA 10, but the context tells its own story. This is a 1st Edition Rare pull from a Japanese set that's over two decades old now, and 1st edition prints from that period were only ever produced in limited windows before reprints took over. That combination, older Japanese set plus 1st edition plus Rare rarity, tends to mean fewer surviving copies in top condition simply because fewer people were slabbing cards carefully back then. Scarcity like that is usually what keeps long-term interest alive, even without a big published population report to point to.

Where can you pull Nosepass?

This is where PackSpy's own data actually gets useful, because we track real pulls across live pack sites rather than relying on price guides. Nosepass has shown up 59 times in our records, pulled from mnstr, courtyard and tilt-rips, and we've seen it surface in a real mix of pack types, including Pack 5, the Pokémon Pro Pack, the Pokemon Dime Pack, the Wildcard Basic Pack and Pack 2. The biggest recorded pull value we've logged for it sits at $201, which gives you a real, live reference point rather than a guess. Worth saying plainly though: pack pulls are a gamble, most rips don't turn a profit, and if you specifically want Nosepass, buying one directly on the secondary market is usually the more predictable route than chasing it through packs.

Questions people ask

How much is Nosepass worth?+

Right now we don't have confirmed raw, Grade 9 or PSA 10 sale prices locked in for this card, so there's no fixed Nosepass price we can quote you yet. What we do have is real pull data: it's shown up 59 times across tracked pack sites, with a biggest recorded pull value of $201. That's a genuine market signal, even while the graded price picture is still filling in.

Is Nosepass worth grading?+

It depends on the copy in front of you. Grading can turn a nice raw card into something worth meaningfully more once it's certified gem mint, but PSA 10s are genuinely tough to land on older Japanese cards, and you're paying grading fees either way. If your Nosepass looks sharp and clean already, it's a reasonable gamble, just don't expect a guaranteed outcome.

Why is the Nosepass 1st Edition #35 print worth more than the standard one?+

1st edition prints were only produced in a limited window before the standard, unlimited reprints took over, so there are naturally fewer of them floating around. Combine that with it being a Rare from the Japanese EX Ruby & Sapphire Expansion Pack, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, and you get a card that collectors specifically seek out over the more common later print.
