06Current Market Value

07Why Collectors Want It

• Released in 2024's Paldean Fates, the SV-era shiny-focused set that revived the Hidden Fates / Shining Fates Shiny Vault format.
• The shiny-variant aesthetic puts this Pidgey on the modern shiny-chase line, a natural complement to the Charmander and Bulbasaur-line shinies in the same set.
• Holo market sits around $7; the headline grails in Paldean Fates are the higher-tier shiny ex chases, not the base pre-evolution prints.
• A natural pickup for completing the modern Paldean Fates Pidgeot-line run.

08Competitive Playability

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.
