About the Weedle card
Numbered 1 of 203 in Vivid Voltage, released in November 2020, Weedle is a Common, a Basic Grass-type carrying 40 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Weedle needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

About Weedle in the Pokémon world
The Bug-Poison entry-level catch in Viridian Forest. Famously underwhelming in the games but a fixture of early gameplay. Common card with no holo variant in Base Set. A familiar starter card for new vintage collectors.
What is Weedle worth?
Weedle 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 Weedle before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Weedle 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 Weedle
Raw copies of Weedle are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Weedle is the practical move.
