Bulbasaur #166 Value (151)
Pokemon card price guide: raw and graded values, eBay sold prices and price history. Updated Nov 2, 2026.
Released in September 2023, Bulbasaur 166 is an Illustration Rare from Scarlet & Violet 151, a set built around the original Kanto Pokédex. Yoriyuki Ikegami's credited artwork gives the first Grass starter a dedicated scene rather than a standard set treatment. Its place near the upper end of the set's price ranking makes it a notable non-ex pull, although recent trading has softened.
