About the Sabrina's Gengar card

Numbered 29 of 132 in Gym Challenge, released in October 2000, Sabrina's Gengar is a Rare, a Stage 2 Psychic-type carrying 90 HP.

It evolves from Sabrina's Haunter, so Sabrina's Gengar is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Sabrina is the Psychic-type Gym Leader of Saffron City, remembered for her cold, telekinetic intensity in the anime. Sabrina's Gengar is part of that themed lineup.

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.

What is Sabrina's Gengar worth?

Grading and condition

Non-holo Rares like Sabrina's Gengar are easier on surface but no kinder on centering. Wizards-era cards were less protected than the holos, so high-grade Sabrina's Gengar survivors can be scarcer than expected, with edge whitening the usual cap.

If you are collecting Sabrina's Gengar

For Sabrina's Gengar, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Non-holo Rares from this era are cheap enough that a PSA 10 submission on a clean Sabrina's Gengar can make sense.
