08Competitive Playability

Basic Chansey with 90 HP; top attack around 10 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Flip a coin. If heads, remove 2 damage counters from 1 of your Pokémon (1 if it has only 1).

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: WotC-era Chansey 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.
