Common questions
What rarity is Dark Blastoise #20?
Dark Blastoise is a Rare. Team Rocket contains 35 cards at that rarity out of 83 total.
Does condition change what Dark Blastoise is worth?
The prices on this page are for raw, ungraded copies. Condition swings what a card fetches — a Near Mint copy can be worth several times a played one, and a PSA 9 or PSA 10 slab is a different market again. Scryda scans the card, reads the exact print and finish, and shows raw alongside graded comps.
