Wobbuffet

Wobbuffet is card 35 of 75 in Neo Discovery, released in June 2001, a Rare. It is a Basic Psychic-type with 90 HP.

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

The card's flavor text gives Wobbuffet a line of lore: "To keep its pitch-black tail hidden, it lives quietly in the darkness. It is never first to attack."

A blue Psychic-type punching bag Pokémon. Famous as Team Rocket's Jessie's signature in the anime. Sentimental anime collector demand.

Wobbuffet is a non-holo Rare. In Neo Discovery, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Wobbuffet 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.

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

Wobbuffet grades on centering and edges more than surface. The card was played and traded more freely than the holos, so a clean, well-centered Wobbuffet is worth more than collectors assume.

For Wobbuffet, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Non-holo Rares from this era are cheap enough that a PSA 10 submission on a clean Wobbuffet can make sense.
