Purugly · Astral Radiance, what to know.
About the Purugly card
Numbered 128 of 216 in Astral Radiance, released in May 2022, Purugly is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Colorless-type carrying 110 HP.
It evolves from Glameow, so Purugly is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Printed on the card, the Purugly Pokédex entry reads: "To make itself appear intimidatingly beefy, it tightly cinches its waist with its twin tails."
What is Purugly worth?
Purugly 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 Purugly before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Purugly 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 Purugly
Raw copies of Purugly are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Purugly is the practical move.
