08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Stage 1 Vaporeon with 70 HP; top attack around 30 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Bite Cost: Colorless · 20 damage

Water Gun Cost: Water + Colorless · 30+ damage

Does 30 damage plus 20 more damage for each Water Energy attached to Vaporeon but not used to pay for this attack's Energy cost. You can't add more than 40 damage in this way.

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.
