07Why Collectors Want It

  • Released in 2012's Boundaries Crossed, the BW-era set that ran 149 cards deep — one of the larger BW-era expansions.
  • A clean fully-evolved Raticate print in the BW era, distributed widely through sealed product.
  • Raw asking sits around $3; the headline Boundaries Crossed grails are the Black Kyurem-EX and Keldeo-EX chases, not the base Pokémon.
  • A foundational entry for any BW-era Raticate-line collection.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Stage 1 Raticate with 60 HP; top attack around — damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

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.
