Vibrava · Brilliant Stars, what to know.
About the Vibrava card
Numbered 75 of 186 in Brilliant Stars, released in February 2022, Vibrava is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Fighting-type carrying 90 HP.
It evolves from Trapinch, so Vibrava is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Vibrava carries this Pokédex flavor text: "The ultrasonic waves it generates by rubbing its two wings together cause severe headaches."
What is Vibrava worth?
Vibrava 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 Vibrava before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Vibrava 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 Vibrava
Raw copies of Vibrava are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Vibrava is the practical move.
