07Why Collectors Want It
- A reverse-holo from Legendary Collection (2002), whose reverse-holo parallels are scarce and condition-sensitive.
- The base non-holo is a common; the value lives entirely in the reverse-holo parallel.
- Verified at ~$108 raw, PSA 10 ~$1,430 (PriceCharting, May 2026) — roughly a 13x gem-mint multiple.
- Reverse-holo surfaces scratch easily, so gem-mint copies are rare.
08Competitive Playability
Tier: None
Basic Pidgey with 40 HP; top attack around 10 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.
09Card Moves and Abilities

10Grading and Population
PSA 10 estimate: PSA 10 ~$1,430 against ~$108 raw — roughly 13x for a flawless copy (PriceCharting realized, May 2026).
Legendary Collection reverse-holo surfaces scratch and whiten readily, so high-grade copies are scarce.
Other graders: PSA leads resale on LC reverse-holos; BGS and CGC copies trade beneath an equivalent PSA 10.
