06Current Market Value

07Why Collectors Want It

• An EX-era reverse-holo from 2004's Team Rocket Returns, the EX-era villain-themed set built around the Rocket's-prefixed Pokémon variants.
• Reverse-holo raw ~$35 vs. PSA 10 ~$4,637 — a ~132× grading multiple, among the most extreme grading lifts anywhere in the dex.
• EX-era reverse-holo foil downgrades on surface scuffs and edge nicks; out-of-pack copies almost always have at least one defect.
• A grail-tier sleeper chase for Raticate-line collectors and one of the loudest PSA 10 grading-flip opportunities on the site.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Basic Rattata with 40 HP; top attack around 10 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

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.
