07Why Collectors Want It

Starmie — the Mysterious Pokemon and final evolution of Staryu, a Kanto-original Water/Psychic-type.
Required for any complete Starmie master set across eras.
Collectors of the Fusion Strike set need this card to finish it.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Stage 1 Starmie with 90 HP; top attack around — damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Multishot Star Cost: Water

Discard any amount of Water Energy from this Pokémon. Then, for each Energy card you discarded in this way, choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon and do 30 damage to it. (You can choose the same Pokémon more than once.) This damage isn't affected by Weakness or Resistance.

Weakness: Lightning ×2
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.
