09Card Moves and Abilities

Energy Flip Cost: Water

Reverse Stream Cost: Water + Water + Colorless · 50+ damage

You may return all basic Energy cards attached to Suicune ex to your hand. If you do, this attack does 50 damage plus 10 more damage for each basic Energy card you returned.

Retreat cost: 2

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern ultra/secret rare; PSA 10 populations are moderate and grading is common for higher-value pulls.

Holo scratching and centering are the usual downgrade culprits; graded gem-mint copies trade above raw.

Other graders: CGC and BGS both grade modern ultra-rares; PSA leads on resale liquidity.
