09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Makeover

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may discard a basic Energy card attached to 1 of your Pokémon (excluding Pokémon-ex). If you do, search your discard pile for a basic Energy card (excluding the one you discarded) and attach it to that Pokémon. This power can't be used if Smeargle is affected by a Special Condition.

Split Spiral Punch Cost: Colorless · 10 damage

Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Confused.

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.
