PokéFig Score (PFS)
How we measure a figure's rarity — with a method, not by eye. Based on how collecting does it (coins, cards, sneakers, Funko).
Value = Scarcity × Demand × Condition
Rarity isn't value: something scarce that nobody wants is worth little. The catalog PFS combines Scarcity + Demand; Condition (sealed/loose) applies to your copy.
The three axes
Anchored in distribution, not finish: mass retail < gashapon < magazine < store exclusive < promo/non-sale < lottery/prize < documented low run.
Species popularity (legendary/chase), sought finish (shiny/gold), real-collector nominations and —soon— actual sale price.
Sealed vs loose (sealed premium). Applies to your copy, not the catalog entry. Future: box grade.
The Demand axis is built from community votes. Pick between pairs of figures and help us sharpen the ranking.

What makes a GRAIL
Grail is EXCLUSIVE to the ultra-scarce: ≤100 documented units or a phantom piece. Expensive or “special” isn't enough — a $25 magazine clear is NOT a grail, and even a ~1,000-unit lottery shiny is 'very rare', not grail.
- 1. Documented run of ≤100 units — sourced, not estimated.
- 2. Or a phantom piece: announced but never released (0 in circulation).
- 3. Examples: BREAK (5 sets), Gold Pikachu (10 winners), 80-winner prizes. The ~1,000-unit lottery shinies are NOT grail — they're 'very rare'.
Confidence level
Each figure states whether its rarity is hard data or an estimate — we never present an estimate as fact.

Methodology based on how collecting measures rarity and value: Sheldon scale and mintage (coins), population reports and gem rate (PSA cards), market indices (StockX), run/vaulted/chase (Funko). Prices = reference, never investment advice.
Frequently asked questions
What is the PokéFig Score (PFS)?
It's a 0–100 rarity index PokéFig assigns to each figure. It measures rarity = scarcity × demand × condition, using Bayesian statistics over the distribution type (retail, gashapon, promo, prize) plus real sales evidence. 10,968 figures are scored.
What is a “grail” figure?
It's the top PFS tier: pieces with a documented run of ≤100 units (Japanese lottery prizes, prototypes, ultra-limited promos). 9 figures in the catalog are marked as grail.
Is the PFS a price or investment advice?
No. The PFS measures rarity, not price. When PokéFig shows prices they are a dated reference estimate from real sales, never investment advice.
