Togepi

Numbered 56 of 113 in Neo Destiny, released in February 2002, Togepi is an Uncommon, a Basic Colorless-type carrying 40 HP.

As a Basic Pokémon, Togepi needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Printed on the card, the Togepi Pokédex entry reads: "Its shell is said to contain happiness itself, which it will share with those who are kind to it."

A small egg-shell Pokémon. Famous for being hatched by Misty in the anime. Steady anime-driven collector demand.

Togepi 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.

Neo Destiny produced 1st Edition, Unlimited, Shining prints. For Togepi, the print variant can change the price several times over, so identify it before you buy.

Togepi 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.

Raw copies of Togepi are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Togepi is the practical move.
