Our 1st edition raw figure sits below the median of 7 PSA 1–3 sales of this printing ($100), and a slabbed low grade does not outsell a near-mint raw copy — so it is withheld until clean raw sales settle it.

About the 1st Edition printing
Which object this page prices — and how to tell it from the standard Dark Blastoise.
The 1st Edition Dark Blastoise carries the first-print stamp on the left of the card, from the earliest Team Rocket print run before the unlimited reprint. Scarcer than unlimited by construction and priced as a separate product at every grade.
How to tell · bottom-left of the illustration window
A black “EDITION 1” stamp sits to the left of the picture, between the illustration and the card's lower text. No stamp means it is not 1st Edition, whatever else the listing says.

1st Edition population
How many copies each grader has graded, every grade, all time. A population counts what has been graded, not every copy that exists, and resubmissions count again.
