09Card Moves and Abilities
Ability: Temperamental Weather
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for Castform, Rain Castform, or Snow-cloud Castform and switch it with Sunny Castform. (Any cards attached to Sunny Castform, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) Shuffle Sunny Castform back into your deck. You can't use more than 1 Temperamental Weather Poké-Power each turn.
Sunshine
Search your discard pile for a Stadium card, show it to your opponent, and put it into your hand.
Sunburn
If High Pressure System is in play, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned.

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.
