Bisharp · Astral Radiance, what to know.
About the Bisharp card
Numbered 116 of 216 in Astral Radiance, released in May 2022, Bisharp is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Metal-type carrying 120 HP.
It evolves from Pawniard, so Bisharp is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Bisharp carries this Pokédex flavor text: "It's accompanied by a large retinue of Pawniard. Bisharp keeps a keen eye on its minions, ensuring none of them even think of double-crossing it."
What is Bisharp worth?
Bisharp is an Uncommon, so raw copies are inexpensive and easy to find. The value is in condition: a genuine PSA 10, especially 1st Edition, can still reach a surprising figure for an otherwise common card. The live price above breaks it down by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Bisharp before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Bisharp grades forgivingly, but the same centering and edge standards apply. Pack-fresh raw copies are easy to find, which makes a clean PSA 10 submission a low-cost way to learn how the cardstock behaves under grading.
If you are collecting Bisharp
Raw copies of Bisharp are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Bisharp is the practical move.
