09Card Moves and Abilities
Ability: Temperamental Weather
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for Castform, Rain Castform, or Sunny Castform and switch it with Snow-cloud Castform. (Any cards attached to Snow-cloud Castform, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) Shuffle Snow-cloud Castform back into your deck. You can't use more than 1 Temperamental Weather Poké-Power each turn.
Flurries
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed. If tails, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep.
White Snow
If Magnetic Storm is in play, this attack does 50 damage plus 20 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.
