Espeon #1: rarity, grading and trend
Espeon #1 is a Rare Holo Pokémon card from Neo Discovery, the Neo era (2001). It ranks as number 3 by price out of 150 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 25x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($312.11 to $312.11). The illustration is by Atsuko Nishida.
