Hydreigon · Evolving Skies, what to know.
About the Hydreigon card
Numbered 115 of 237 in Evolving Skies, released in August 2021, Hydreigon is a Rare Holo, a Stage 2 Dragon-type carrying 170 HP.
It evolves from Zweilous, so Hydreigon is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Hydreigon carries this Pokédex flavor text: "The three heads take turns sinking their teeth into the opponent. Their attacks won't slow until their target goes down."
What is Hydreigon worth?
Hydreigon is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Evolving Skies's value. The rarity tier decides most of it, since the same card prints at several tiers with very different prices. In top-grade 1st Edition, Evolving Skies holos range from the mid hundreds for the lesser cards up to the set's marquee chase; raw and Unlimited copies trade for a fraction of that. The live market price above shows the current figure by grade.
Print variants and how to spot them
Confirm the print and finish on Hydreigon before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
For graded buyers, the holo window on Hydreigon is where most points are won or lost. Surface scratches and foil misregistration are common on these cards, and centering was inconsistent enough that clean PSA 10s stay scarce. Read the dragon foil at a 45-degree angle under strong light before committing.
If you are collecting Hydreigon
When you go to buy Hydreigon, settle three things in order: the print variant, the condition, and a comp for that exact combination. A blended average across variants will mislead you on Hydreigon, so price the specific copy in front of you.
