Skeledirge · Scarlet & Violet, what to know.
About the Skeledirge card
Numbered 38 of 250 in Scarlet & Violet, released in March 2023, Skeledirge is a Rare, a Stage 2 Fire-type carrying 180 HP.
It evolves from Crocalor, so Skeledirge is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Skeledirge carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Skeledirge's gentle singing soothes the souls of all that hear it. It burns its enemies to a crisp with flames of over 5,400 degrees Fahrenheit."
What is Skeledirge worth?
Skeledirge is a non-holo Rare. In Scarlet & Violet, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Skeledirge trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Skeledirge before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Skeledirge, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Skeledirge in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Skeledirge
For Skeledirge, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Skeledirge rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
