2000 Pokémon cards worth money
The most valuable 2000 Pokémon card is Lugia 9/111 from Neo Genesis, at about $642 for a near-mint raw copy and $180,000 in a PSA 10 slab. 2000 gave us Base Set 2, Team Rocket, Gym Heroes, Gym Challenge and Neo Genesis: 588 English cards, of which 95 sell for $20 or more raw today. Every one is priced below from real sales, raw and graded, chase cards first, so you can check a stack of 2000 pulls against what they actually fetch.
Wizards-era rule of thumb: the holo rares carry the value, commons and uncommons are bulk unless they’re 1st Edition or gem mint, and the print matters as much as the card. A 1st Edition stamp or a Shadowless frame on a 2000 card is a different item with its own price, so check the printing pages further down before you sell. These sets sit in the Wizards of the Coast era; the year is the set’s English release date, not the copyright line on the card.

Common questions
Are 2000 Pokémon cards worth anything?
Some are. 95 of the 588 English cards released in 2000 sell for $20 or more raw today, topped by Lugia 9/111 at about $642. Most commons and uncommons are bulk unless they are gem mint or 1st Edition.
What is the most valuable 2000 Pokémon card?
Lugia 9/111 from Neo Genesis, at about $642 raw and $180,000 in PSA 10.
How do I tell if my 2000 Pokémon card is worth money?
Find the set symbol and card number (the set symbols chart helps), match the card here, then check the printing (1st Edition stamp, Shadowless frame or Unlimited) and the condition: prices are for near-mint copies, and a played card sells for less. The price checker walks through it step by step.
Is the year printed on the card the release year?
Not reliably. The copyright line is the artwork’s copyright and can predate the English set by a year or more, and reprints keep the original line. These pages use the English release date of the set.
