Tympole is a single-chase list — the 2025 Black Bolt Illustration Rare leads by a 27× margin over the next card, and everything behind it sits firmly in the bulk floor. A reprint history across BW, XY, SM, SWSH, and SV-era sets means there are plenty of Tympoles in circulation; almost none have ever broken the $1 floor outside the modern throwback chase.
Dark Explorers was the May-2012 BW-era set built around the Hydreigon line and Team Plasma villains. Tympole's Common reprint here is the strongest of the bulk-tier — clean BW-era Water artwork, modest demand.

View full card data →Dragons Exalted was the August-2012 BW-era set built around the Hydreigon line and the new Dragon-type. Tympole rode along as a Common reprint — off-theme bulk filler in a set centered on Dragons.

View full card data →Legendary Treasures was 2013's greatest-hits closer for the Black & White era. Tympole's reprint here is exactly the kind of Common you'd expect in a fat-pack release — a clean second-swing for set-completionists.
View full card data →Plasma Freeze was the May-2013 BW-era set built around the Team Plasma storyline. Tympole's reprint here is a Common — bulk filler in the Plasma-storyline-driven era.
