09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Star Light

As long as your opponent has any Pokémon-ex or Stage 2 Evolved Pokémon in play, Jirachi ex pays Colorless less Energy to use Shield Beam or Super Psy Bolt.

Shield Beam Cost: Psychic + Colorless · 30 damage

During your opponent's next turn, your opponent can't use any Poké-Powers on his or her Pokémon.

Super Psy Bolt Cost: Psychic + Colorless + Colorless · 50 damage

Retreat cost: 1

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern ultra/secret rare; PSA 10 populations are moderate and grading is common for higher-value pulls.

Holo scratching and centering are the usual downgrade culprits; graded gem-mint copies trade above raw.

Other graders: CGC and BGS both grade modern ultra-rares; PSA leads on resale liquidity.
