About Blastoise ex

Blastoise ex 200/165 is the English Special Illustration Rare Blastoise from Scarlet & Violet-151. Collectors search for it because it is the highest-rarity Blastoise artwork in the English 151 set and part of the Kanto starter SIR group.

Why this card matters

Verified factBlastoise ex 200/165 sits in the English Scarlet & Violet-151 checklist above the normal-set Blastoise ex and the Ultra Rare Blastoise ex, so exact collector number is essential. The card combines a first-generation Pokemon with the Scarlet & Violet Special Illustration Rare treatment, which makes it a set-completion target rather than a generic Blastoise search. The official checklist places it among the numbered secret-range cards in 151, while marketplace identity pages separate it from Japanese and lower-rarity versions. [1][2]

Identifying the exact version

Verified factThe correct English version has number 200/165, the set name 151, and the Special Illustration Rare finish. The closest mistakes are the Japanese Pokemon Card 151 Blastoise ex 202/165, the English 151 Ultra Rare 184/165, and regular double rare 009/165. A listing that only says "Blastoise ex 151" is incomplete for valuation. The artist attribution used here is Mitsuhiro Arita from card identity references, and the language is kept separate because English and Japanese populations and sales are not interchangeable. [1][2]

What moves the price between versions and grades

AnalysisFor this card, condition and grade separation are large enough that raw, PSA 9, and PSA 10 should not be averaged. PSA sale records show PSA 10 comparables in late August and September 2026 well above PSA 9 comparables from April 2026. That difference is not proof that every raw card should be graded; chapter 04 requires comparing likely grading outcomes, costs, and the raw exit value. Population growth is also relevant because this is a modern card with continuing submissions. [3][4][5]

Authenticity checks

Verified factCompare the card against official 151 references and a known authentic English 200/165 copy, checking the collector number, text layout, texture, foil, card size, back design, and edge quality together. Do not use destructive tests. For slabs, match the cert record to the label and photos, but do not treat a valid number as complete authentication because copied cert numbers exist. For raw cards, require original front, back, corner, and angled-surface photos before using any price comp. [6][7]

Identity note: Seed identity matched the English 151 Special Illustration Rare. Do not merge with Japanese Pokemon Card 151 202/165 or English Blastoise ex 184/165.
Why collectors look this card up: TCGscreener ranks it #7 most-graded Pokemon card, 63k+ PSA submissions. source 1

What people get wrong about this card

Population is the same thing as print run.
The available population figures count graded copies recorded by grading companies, not all printed or surviving raw copies.
Any Blastoise ex from 151 is an equal comp.
The evidence supports separating 200/165 Special Illustration Rare from 184/165 Ultra Rare, 009/165 double rare, Japanese 202/165, and other languages.
A PSA 10 sale tells you what a raw card is worth.
Chapter 03 requires sold comps for the same grade or condition; PSA 10 sales are slab comps, not raw comps.

Frequently asked questions

How much is a PSA 10 Blastoise ex 200/165 worth?
Recent PSA-recorded eBay PSA 10 comparable sales shown on the opened cert page were $570 on 2026-09-01 and $575, $580, $585, and $560 on 2026-08-31, but these are individual comps, not a guaranteed value. [3] [3]
How do I tell Blastoise ex 200/165 from other 151 Blastoise cards?
Use the collector number 200/165 and Special Illustration Rare treatment; do not use 184/165, 009/165, or Japanese 202/165 as the same card. [1,2] [1][2]
How many PSA 10 Blastoise ex 200/165 copies exist?
Radiant reports 18,833 PSA 10s and 63,309 total PSA graded copies from PokemonPriceTracker as of 2026-09-16. [5] [5]
Is Blastoise ex 200/165 a reprint of Base Set Blastoise?
No; it is a new Scarlet & Violet-151 card with its own collector number and artwork, not a Base Set reprint. [1,2] [1][2]
Should English and Japanese Blastoise ex SIR prices be combined?
No; English 200/165 and Japanese 202/165 are separate language releases and should have separate sales and populations. [2] [2]
