Printed on the card, the Yamper Pokédex entry reads: "This gluttonous Pokémon only assists people with their work because it wants treats. As it runs, it crackles with electricity."
What is Yamper worth?
Yamper is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Phantasmal Flames's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Phantasmal Flames holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Yamper before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Grading Yamper comes down to the holo surface and the borders. The era's foil scratches easily, so even a pack-fresh Yamper can drop from a 10 to a 9 on a single hairline. Inspect the window at an angle and the corners against the frame.
If you are collecting Yamper
For Yamper, variant comes before condition. Confirm the exact rarity tier on the Yamper, since the spread between tiers is wide. Demand a clear photo of the Yamper holo for any raw purchase.
