Magnezone · Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery, what to know.
About the Magnezone card
Numbered GG18 of 70 in Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery, released in January 2023, Magnezone is a Trainer Gallery Rare Holo, a Stage 2 Metal-type carrying 150 HP.
It evolves from Magneton, so Magnezone is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Magnezone carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Some say that Magnezone receives signals from space via the antenna on its head and that it's being controlled by some mysterious being."
What is Magnezone worth?
Magnezone is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery'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, Crown Zenith Galarian Gallery 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 Magnezone before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Expect the holo window to set the grade on Magnezone. Print misregistration and fine scratches in the metal foil are the usual reasons a copy lands at a 9, and edge whitening against the frame is the next thing a grader notes.
If you are collecting Magnezone
When you go to buy Magnezone, settle three things in order: the print variant, the condition, and a comp for that exact combination. A blended average across variants will mislead you on Magnezone, so price the specific copy in front of you.
