08Competitive Playability

Stage 2 Beedrill with 80 HP; top attack around 20 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Triple Poison Cost: Grass · 10 damage

Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. Your opponent now puts 3 damage counters on it instead of 1 after each player's turn (even if it was already Poisoned).

Pin Missile Cost: Grass + Grass + Colorless · 20× damage

Flip 4 coins. This attack does 20 damage times the number of heads.

Weakness: Fire ×2
Resistance: Fighting -30
Retreat cost: 0

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: WotC-era Beedrill 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.
