Common questions
What rarity is Poliwhirl #57?
Poliwhirl is an Uncommon. Base Set 2 contains 42 cards at that rarity out of 130 total.
Does condition change what Poliwhirl is worth?
The prices on this page are for raw, ungraded copies.

Scryda scans the card, reads the exact print and finish, and shows raw alongside graded comps.
