Shaymin · Crown Zenith, what to know.
About the Shaymin card
Numbered 115 of 160 in Crown Zenith, released in January 2023, Shaymin is an Uncommon, a Basic Colorless-type carrying 70 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Shaymin needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Printed on the card, the Shaymin Pokédex entry reads: "The blooming of Gracidea flowers confers the power of flight upon it. Feelings of gratitude are the message it delivers."
What is Shaymin worth?
Shaymin 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 Shaymin before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Shaymin 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 Shaymin
Raw copies of Shaymin are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Shaymin is the practical move.
