Kricketot · Astral Radiance, what to know.
About the Kricketot card
Numbered 9 of 216 in Astral Radiance, released in May 2022, Kricketot is a Common, a Basic Grass-type carrying 60 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Kricketot needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Kricketot carries this Pokédex flavor text: "When its antennae hit each other, it sounds like the music of a xylophone."
What is Kricketot worth?
Kricketot 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 Kricketot before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Kricketot 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 Kricketot
Raw copies of Kricketot are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Kricketot is the practical move.
