Rather than featuring a Pokémon, Fairy Energy 169 applies the premium Secret Rare treatment to a basic Energy card. Issued in Burning Shadows during 2017, it ranks near the top of the set by value. The ornate foil presentation and now-retired Fairy typing give it a different identity from the expansion's rainbow GX cards.

Graded card values (PSA, CGC, BGS)

Grading	Grade	Median sold	Sales
PSA	10	$423.89	2
PSA	9	$151.65	5
PSA	8	$92.18	2
PSA	7	$39.07	2

Graded values are medians of real eBay sold listings.

Is it worth grading? Given the meaningful top-grade premium and relatively strong raw band, grading is reasonable when the surface and borders are exceptionally clean. Broad foil areas can expose scratches or print defects, and whitening along the back edges is especially damaging on copies intended for high grades.

Fairy Energy carries added historical interest because the Fairy type was later removed from new Pokémon card releases. That makes the card useful for type-history collections, complete secret Energy runs, and decks preserved from the Sun & Moon competitive era.
