Lanturn · Evolving Skies, what to know.
About the Lanturn card
Numbered 53 of 237 in Evolving Skies, released in August 2021, Lanturn is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Lightning-type carrying 120 HP.
It evolves from Chinchou, so Lanturn is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Lanturn carries this Pokédex flavor text: "This Pokémon flashes a bright light that blinds its prey. This creates an opening for it to deliver an electrical attack."
What is Lanturn worth?
Lanturn is an Uncommon, so raw copies are inexpensive and easy to find. The value is in condition: a genuine PSA 10, especially 1st Edition, can still reach a surprising figure for an otherwise common card. The live price above breaks it down by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Lanturn before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Lanturn grades forgivingly, but the same centering and edge standards apply. Pack-fresh raw copies are easy to find, which makes a clean PSA 10 submission a low-cost way to learn how the cardstock behaves under grading.
If you are collecting Lanturn
Raw copies of Lanturn are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Lanturn is the practical move.
