07Why Collectors Want It

Required for any complete Weezing master set across eras.
Collectors of the Team Rocket set need this card to finish it.

08Competitive Playability

Stage 1 Weezing with 60 HP; top attack around 20 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Does 20 damage times the total number of Koffings, Weezings, and Dark Weezings in play (Apply Weakness and Resistance.). Then, this attack does 20 damage to each Koffing, Weezing, and Dark Weezing (even your own). Don't apply Weakness and Resistance.

Stun Gas Cost: Grass + Grass + Grass · 20 damage

Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned; if tails, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: WotC-era Weezing 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.
