Priciest first
Every Cobalion we price
6 of the 30 printings we can name are in sets we hold prices for. Tap a card to see it full size.
Prices are pricecharting.com's price guide value for an ungraded copy, read August 31, 2026. A guide value is computed across the sales PriceCharting tracks, which is a wider set of venues than any one marketplace. 2 cards of the 5,396 priced here are not listed by PriceCharting and keep their TCGplayer market price via TCGdex instead. Where a card comes as a normal, holo and reverse holo at different prices, the figure is the priciest of them. Prices move daily, so treat these as a ballpark. Search every card.
Evolution
Cobalion does not evolve
It has no pre-evolution and nothing it becomes, which puts it with the 200 other species in the Pokedex that stand alone. The evolution chart lists every one of them.
