Ledian · Neo Genesis, what to know.
About the Ledian card
Numbered 39 of 111 in Neo Genesis, released in December 2000, Ledian is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Grass-type carrying 60 HP.
It evolves from Ledyba, so Ledian is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.
Illustrated by Ken Sugimori. Sugimori is the lead character designer of Pokémon itself, so his card art carries the tight, on-model look that defined how the creatures appear in the games.
Printed on the card, the Ledian Pokédex entry reads: "When the stars flicker in the night sky, Ledian flutters about, scattering a glowing powder."
What is Ledian worth?
Ledian 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
Neo Genesis produced 1st Edition, Unlimited prints. For Ledian, the print variant can change the price several times over, so identify it before you buy.
Grading and condition
Ledian 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 Ledian
Raw copies of Ledian are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Ledian is the practical move.
