On 9 October, in detail

45 copies for sale

Card language: French. Sellers: Worldwide. Asking prices exclude shipping and import charges. On 9 October, we observed 45 copies in this selection.

One listing can offer several copies, so we count the cards one by one.

Here’s how they split by condition.

  • Mint 5 copies across 5 listings
  • Near Mint 36 copies across 36 listings
  • Excellent 2 copies across 2 listings
  • Good 2 copies across 2 listings

In Near Mint, professional and private sellers usually ask about the same price.

We compared their 14 listings with 22 listings from private sellers, all in this condition.

A professional seller sells cards for a living, often through a shop. A private seller is a collector or a player like you, selling their own cards. These are the prices they put up. The final price of a sale is something we don’t see.

Slow departures

Its copies leave more slowly than those of most other cards.

  • At least 6 copies gone since 10 September
  • 45 for sale on 9 October

The pokoSCORE looks at how fast copies of this card leave the listings we check every day, where collectors sell cards to each other, and compares that pace with the other cards in French that we follow. It says nothing about the price: a card can fly off the shelf and still be worth three euros.

A copy that’s gone may have sold, or its seller may have taken it down: from the outside, the two look alike. We only count the ones that never came back on sale, hence the “at least”.

Choose up to 3 of your Benched Pokémon. For each of those Pokémon, search your deck for a Basic Energy card and attach it to that Pokémon.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.

  2. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 6,555 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Water ×2. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 6,555 tournament lists we have read, 2,647 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  6. Keep in mind

    Mark G. It is not among the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J. A legal reprint may still provide an exception.
