Escavalier · Brilliant Stars, what to know.
About the Escavalier card
Numbered 101 of 186 in Brilliant Stars, released in February 2022, Escavalier is a Rare, a Stage 1 Metal-type carrying 120 HP.
It evolves from Karrablast, so Escavalier is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Escavalier carries this Pokédex flavor text: "They use shells they've stolen from Shelmet to arm and protect themselves. They're very popular Pokémon in the Galar region."
What is Escavalier worth?
Escavalier is a non-holo Rare. In Brilliant Stars, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Escavalier 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. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Escavalier before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Non-holo Rares like Escavalier are easier on surface but no kinder on centering. These cards were less protected than the holos, so high-grade Escavalier survivors can be scarcer than expected, with edge whitening the usual cap.
If you are collecting Escavalier
For Escavalier, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Submission math on Escavalier rarely works unless the card has independent demand.
