About the Drapion VSTAR card
Numbered 119 of 217 in Lost Origin, released in September 2022, Drapion VSTAR is a Rare Holo VSTAR, a Basic Darkness-type carrying 270 HP.
It evolves from Drapion V, so Drapion VSTAR is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

What is Drapion VSTAR worth?
Drapion VSTAR is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Lost Origin's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Lost Origin holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Drapion VSTAR before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Drapion VSTAR lives and dies on its holo surface in grading. The darkness foil catches light at angles that hide hairlines in a flat photo, so tilt it under a lamp, then measure the borders, where modern centering is the second-most-common grade cap.
