About the Marshadow card
Marshadow is card 146 of 188 in Mega Evolution, released in September 2025, an Illustration Rare. It is a Basic Fighting-type with 90 HP.
As a Basic Pokémon, Marshadow needs no prior evolution to put into play, which made it a practical card in the era's decks.
What is Marshadow worth?
Marshadow is a holo rare, one of the cards that holds Mega Evolution'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, Mega Evolution 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 Marshadow before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Grading Marshadow comes down to the holo surface and the borders. The era's foil scratches easily, so even a pack-fresh Marshadow can drop from a 10 to a 9 on a single hairline. Inspect the window at an angle and the corners against the frame.
If you are collecting Marshadow
If you are buying Marshadow, work in order: confirm the print variant first, then the grade, then price against recent sales for that exact variant and grade. Price the Marshadow against the population report, since modern holo supply is large.
