Blastoise rounds out the legendary Base Set starter trio alongside Charizard and Venusaur, and its 1999 holo remains one of the most recognizable cards in the hobby. The infamous "Commissioned Presentation" Galaxy Star Blastoise is one of the rarest cards ever made, with a documented sale of $360,000.

Most Blastoise cards are far more accessible, but Base Set holos, 1st Edition copies, and clean graded slabs all carry real value. We buy every Blastoise ever printed, raw or graded.

As part of the Base Set holo trio, Blastoise enjoys permanent nostalgia demand - and 1st Edition and Shadowless copies sit firmly in the vintage blue-chip tier.

Frequently Asked Questions About Selling Blastoise Cards

How do I tell which Base Set Blastoise I have?

Check for the "1st Edition" stamp below the artwork and the drop shadow on the right border of the card frame. 1st Edition has the stamp, Shadowless has neither stamp nor shadow, and Unlimited has the shadow but no stamp.

Why is centering so important for Blastoise?

Base Set Blastoise is well known for poor centering straight from the pack, so well-centered copies grade higher and sell for a significant premium. We factor centering into every raw offer.
