Chimecho · Vivid Voltage, what to know.
About the Chimecho card
Numbered 72 of 203 in Vivid Voltage, released in November 2020, Chimecho is a Common, a Basic Psychic-type carrying 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Chimecho needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Chimecho carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Emitting ultrasonic cries, it floats on winds to travel great distances."
What is Chimecho worth?
Chimecho 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 Chimecho before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Chimecho 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 Chimecho
Raw copies of Chimecho are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Chimecho is the practical move.
