07Why Collectors Want It
- A reverse-holo Togepi from Team Rocket Returns (2004); the reverse parallel is the value driver, not the common base.
- Verified at ~$127 raw, PSA 10 ~$1,351 (PriceCharting, May 2026) — roughly a 11x gem-mint multiple.
- EX-era reverse-holos of commons have tiny high-grade populations, which fuels the steep premium.
- Reverse-holo surfaces scratch easily, so gem-mint copies are genuinely rare.
08Competitive Playability
Tier: None
Basic Togepi with 40 HP; top attack around — damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.
09Card Moves and Abilities
Yawn
The Defending Pokémon is now Asleep.
Mini-Metronome
Flip a coin. If heads, choose 1 of the Defending Pokémon's attacks. Mini-Metronome copies that attack except for its Energy cost. (You must still do anything else required for that attack.) (No matter what type that Pokémon is, Togepi's type is still Colorless.) Togepi performs that attack.

10Grading and Population
PSA 10 estimate: PSA 10 ~$1,351 against ~$127 raw — roughly 11x for a flawless copy (PriceCharting realized, May 2026).
Reverse-holo surfaces scratch and whiten readily, and few were ever graded, so the gem-mint population is tiny.
Other graders: PSA leads resale on reverse-holo sleepers; BGS and CGC copies trade beneath an equivalent PSA 10.
