Electrode · Scarlet & Violet 151, what to know.
About the Electrode card
Numbered 101 of 207 in Scarlet & Violet 151, released in September 2023, Electrode is a Rare, a Stage 1 Lightning-type carrying 90 HP.
It evolves from Voltorb, so Electrode is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Electrode Pokédex entry reads: "The more energy it charges up, the faster it gets. But this also makes it more likely to explode."
About Electrode in the Pokémon world
The fully evolved Voltorb. Inverted color scheme. Jungle holo Electrode has thin demand outside set completionists.
What is Electrode worth?
Electrode is a non-holo Rare. In Scarlet & Violet 151, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Electrode trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium.

Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Electrode before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Electrode, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Electrode in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Electrode
For Electrode, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Electrode rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
