07Why Collectors Want It

  • A reverse-holo of a base print from 2002's Legendary Collection — the WotC-era set famous for turning vintage commons into PSA 10 grading-flip chases.
  • Raw reverse-holo ~$71 vs. PSA 10 ~$619 — a clean ~9× grading multiple driven by Legendary Collection's mirror-foil surface scarcity.
  • Mirror-foil surfaces scratch easily and centering downgrades are common; gem-mint copies require clean pulls.
  • A natural pickup for any vintage Fearow-line collector, sitting alongside the Spearow reverse from the same set.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Stage 1 Fearow with 70 HP; top attack around 40 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: WotC-era Fearow PSA 10 populations vary; small numbers across most sets.

Graded copies command notable premiums over raw, especially for 1st Edition prints.

Other graders: BGS and CGC also grade vintage Pokemon; PSA dominates secondary-market liquidity.
