Croagunk · Silver Tempest, what to know.
About the Croagunk card
Numbered 109 of 217 in Silver Tempest, released in November 2022, Croagunk is a Common, a Basic Darkness-type carrying 80 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Croagunk needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.

Printed on the card, the Croagunk Pokédex entry reads: "It makes frightening noises with its poison-filled cheek sacs. When opponents flinch, Croagunk hits them with a poison jab."
What is Croagunk worth?
Croagunk is a Common, so raw copies trade for very little and most of the print run survives. The only real value is in pristine, high-grade copies, where even a Common can reach low triple digits in 1st Edition PSA 10. See the live price above for the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Croagunk before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Croagunk is the most forgiving tier to grade in the set. Centering on the framed border is the usual cap, and the soft cardstock picks up edge whitening easily, but high print runs keep clean copies affordable.
If you are collecting Croagunk
Raw copies of Croagunk are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Croagunk is the practical move.
