09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Call for Help

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Team Magma's Mightyena is your Active Pokémon, you may search your deck for a Pokémon with Team Magma in its name, show it to your opponent, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Team Magma's Mightyena is affected by a Special Condition.

Lunge Cost: Fighting + Colorless · 50 damage

Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing.

Weakness: Fighting ×2
Resistance: Psychic -30
Retreat cost: 1

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.
