Whiscash · Astral Radiance, what to know.
About the Whiscash card
Numbered 36 of 216 in Astral Radiance, released in May 2022, Whiscash is an Uncommon, a Stage 1 Water-type carrying 120 HP.
It evolves from Barboach, so Whiscash is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Whiscash carries this Pokédex flavor text: "It makes its nest at the bottom of swamps. It will eat anything—if it is alive, Whiscash will eat it."
What is Whiscash worth?
Whiscash 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
Confirm the print and finish on Whiscash before pricing it, since variant and rarity set the market more than the card name alone.
Grading and condition
Whiscash 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 Whiscash
Raw copies of Whiscash are inexpensive enough that grading rarely pays unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completion, a clean sleeved Whiscash is the practical move.
