Togedemaru · Obsidian Flames, what to know.
About the Togedemaru card
Numbered 151 of 230 in Obsidian Flames, released in August 2023, Togedemaru is a Common, a Basic Metal-type carrying 80 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Togedemaru needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Printed on the card, the Togedemaru Pokédex entry reads: "When it's in trouble, it curls up into a ball, makes its fur spikes stand on end, and then discharges electricity indiscriminately."
What is Togedemaru worth?
Togedemaru is a Common, so raw copies trade for very little and most of the print run survives. The only real value is in pristine, high-grade copies, where even a Common can reach low triple digits in 1st Edition PSA 10. See the live price above for the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Togedemaru before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Togedemaru is the most forgiving tier to grade in the set. Centering on the framed border is the usual cap, and the soft cardstock picks up edge whitening easily, but high print runs keep clean copies affordable.
If you are collecting Togedemaru
Raw copies of Togedemaru are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Togedemaru is the practical move.
