Rotom · Ascended Heroes, what to know.
About the Rotom card
Numbered 92 of 250 in Ascended Heroes, released in April 2026, Rotom is a Common, a Basic Psychic-type carrying 60 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Rotom needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

What is Rotom worth?
Rotom is a Common, so raw copies trade for very little and most of the print run survives. The only real value is in pristine, high-grade copies, where even a Common can reach low triple digits in 1st Edition PSA 10. See the live price above for the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Rotom before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Rotom is the most forgiving tier to grade in the set. Centering on the framed border is the usual cap, and the soft cardstock picks up edge whitening easily, but high print runs keep clean copies affordable.
If you are collecting Rotom
Raw copies of Rotom are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Rotom is the practical move.
