Capsakid · Scarlet & Violet, what to know.
About the Capsakid card
Numbered 28 of 250 in Scarlet & Violet, released in March 2023, Capsakid is a Common, a Basic Grass-type carrying 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Capsakid needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Capsakid carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Traditional Paldean dishes can be extremely spicy because they include the shed front teeth of Capsakid among their ingredients."
What is Capsakid worth?
Capsakid is a Common, so raw copies trade for very little and most of the print run survives. The only real value is in pristine, high-grade copies, where even a Common can reach low triple digits in 1st Edition PSA 10. See the live price above for the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Capsakid before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Capsakid is the most forgiving tier to grade in the set. Centering on the framed border is the usual cap, and the soft cardstock picks up edge whitening easily, but high print runs keep clean copies affordable.
If you are collecting Capsakid
Raw copies of Capsakid are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Capsakid is the practical move.
