07Why Collectors Want It

An e-Card-era holo from the 2002 Expedition Base Set — barcode-scanner mechanics killed sealed sales and thinned graded supply a generation later.
Holo raw ~$125 vs. PSA 10 ~$1,599 — a clean ~13× grading multiple, with e-Card centering and edge wear the usual downgrades.
Expedition holos are some of the most fragile WotC-era foil prints in the entire dex, so gem-mint copies require legitimately clean pulls.
A vintage Pidgeot-line cornerstone and a meaningful sub-$150 entry to a four-figure PSA 10 chase.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

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

09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Beating Wings

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Pidgeot is your Active Pokémon, you may shuffle 1 of your Benched Pokémon and all cards attached to it into your deck. This power can't be used if Pidgeot is affected by a Special Condition.

Sharp Beak Cost: Colorless + Colorless + Colorless · 20+ damage

Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 damage plus 30 more damage.

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

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: PSA 10 ~$1,599 against ~$125 raw — roughly 13x for a flawless copy (PriceCharting realized, May 2026).

Expedition holo foil shows hairlines and the print runs off-center, so gem-mint copies are genuinely scarce.

Other graders: PSA leads resale on e-Card holos; BGS and CGC copies trade beneath an equivalent PSA 10.
