Dragonite · Scarlet & Violet 151, what to know.
About the Dragonite card
Numbered 149 of 207 in Scarlet & Violet 151, released in September 2023, Dragonite is a Rare, a Stage 2 Dragon-type carrying 180 HP.
It evolves from Dragonair, so Dragonite is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Dragonite carries this Pokédex flavor text: "It is said that somewhere in the ocean lies an island where these gather. Only they live there."
About Dragonite in the Pokémon world
The fully evolved Dratini line. Friendly orange dragon silhouette. One of the most-beloved Pokémon designs. Fossil holo Dragonite is the marquee chase of the entire Fossil set. PSA 10 1st Edition examples are genuinely scarce and command top of the Fossil price chart.
What is Dragonite worth?
Dragonite is a non-holo Rare. In Scarlet & Violet 151, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Dragonite trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium.

Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Dragonite before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
On Dragonite, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Dragonite in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.
If you are collecting Dragonite
For Dragonite, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Dragonite rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
