07Why Collectors Want It

09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Gleam Eyes

Once during your turn, when you play Luxray from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon, you may look at your opponent's hand. If your opponent's Bench isn't full, choose 1 Basic Pokémon from your opponent's hand, and put it onto his or her Bench. Then, switch it with the Defending Pokémon.

Lightning Star Cost: Lightning + Lightning + Lightning + Lightning · 80 damage

Move all Lightning Energy attached to Luxray to 1 of your Benched Pokémon. (Ignore this effect if you don't have any Benched Pokémon.)

Weakness: Fighting +30
Resistance: Metal -20
Retreat cost: 1

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern Common/Uncommon — most copies are not graded because raw value rarely justifies the fee.

Graded populations stay low; usually collected raw or sleeved rather than slabbed.

Other graders: Negligible BGS/CGC submission volume.
