07Why Collectors Want It

  • Kangaskhan — the Parent Pokemon, a single-stage Normal-type Kanto-original. The Jungle holo (1999) is the line's anchor.
  • Promo-only distribution makes supply meaningfully tighter than mass-retail cards.
  • Required for any complete Kangaskhan master set across eras.
  • Collectors of the SWSH Black Star Promos set need this card to finish it.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: Niche

Basic Kangaskhan with 130 HP; top attack near 100 damage — playable in casual or rogue lists, not a competitive staple.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Rally Back Cost: Colorless + Colorless · 30+ damage

If any of your Pokémon were Knocked Out by damage from an attack from your opponent's Pokémon during their last turn, this attack does 90 more damage.

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.
