ABOUT THIS CARD

Dragonite is a rare holo Pokemon card from Pokemon Fossil, card 4 of 62, released October 10, 1999 in the Base series. The illustration is by Kagemaru Himeno.

Fossil Dragonite is the marquee holo of the third English expansion. Its airbrushed Mitsuhiro Arita art is among the most reproduced vintage Pokémon images, and the 1st Edition holo is a vintage staple in graded collections.

VALUE

What is Dragonite #4 from Fossil worth?

Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Dragonite #4 (Fossil) carries a market reference of $463.06 USD for the 1stEditionHolofoil printing (TCGplayer market price, as of 2026-09-11). Graded slabs: a graded example is priced per grading company and per grade and can sit far above that raw figure - documented public sales on file for this card run from $13800.00 (PSA 10, 2026-04-26) to $23800.00 (PSA 10, 2026-08-30), each listed with its source below. Both are references, not offers. The graded copy in our machine carries a Rip Station estimated slab value of $360.00 (PSA 5).
