Frequently asked questions
Where does Articuno rank in Fossil?
This sits in the middle of the set: real, but not a headline card. In Fossil this copy is numbered 17 of 62 and marked Rare with art by Mitsuhiro Arita. The card is Articuno, a Basic Water Pokémon carrying 70 HP. With Water + Water + Water paid, Freeze Dry puts 30 damage on the table. Those numbers come from completed sales, not an offer on your copy.
Should I sell my Articuno alone or in a lot?
Its price follows condition closely. The card is Articuno, a Basic Water Pokémon carrying 70 HP. In Fossil this copy is numbered 17 of 62 and marked Rare with art by Mitsuhiro Arita. As a Basic it can be played without evolving. In Near Mint it is worth pricing on its own; played copies usually earn more in a lot.
