About the Farfetch'd card
Farfetch'd is card 68 of 113 in XY Evolutions, released in November 2016, a Rare. It is a Basic Colorless-type with 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Farfetch'd needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.
Illustrated by Ken Sugimori. Sugimori is the lead character designer of Pokémon itself, so his card art carries the tight, on-model look that defined how the creatures appear in the games.
The Pokédex entry printed on Farfetch'd reads: "It always walks about with a plant stalk clamped in its beak. The stalk is used for building its nest."
About Farfetch'd in the Pokémon world
A duck Pokémon that always carries a leek. Notably one of the few Gen 1 Pokémon that never received an evolution until Galarian Farfetch'd in Gen 8. Jungle Uncommon. Sentimental collector pick.
What is Farfetch'd worth?
Farfetch'd is a non-holo Rare. In XY Evolutions, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Farfetch'd 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. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Farfetch'd before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Farfetch'd, 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 Farfetch'd in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Farfetch'd
For Farfetch'd, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Farfetch'd rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
