Miltank · Neo Genesis, what to know.
About the Miltank card
Numbered 41 of 111 in Neo Genesis, released in December 2000, Miltank is an Uncommon, a Basic Colorless-type carrying 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Miltank 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.
Miltank carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Its milk is packed with nutrition, making it the ultimate beverage for the sick or weary."
What is Miltank worth?
Miltank 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
Neo Genesis produced 1st Edition, Unlimited prints. For Miltank, the print variant can change the price several times over, so identify it before you buy.
Grading and condition
Miltank 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 Miltank
Raw copies of Miltank are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Miltank is the practical move.
