Comparable Sales
Standard modern Tyranitar holos sell for $2-8. However, 'Team Rocket' themed modern cards often carry a 50-100% premium among nostalgic collectors.
Description
Featured is a stunning Team Rocket's Tyranitar from a 2025 dated set (DR1). The card features a unique reverse holofoil pattern with the card's artwork showing Tyranitar in an urban alleyway. Includes the Sand Stream ability and Demolition Tackle attack. Giovanni is featured in the lower right artwork orb.
Key Features
Features the 2025 copyright date which is ahead of current official retail releases; attractive modern 'Team Rocket' aesthetic; high HP Stage 2 Pokémon with iconic Giovanni character art.
Authenticity Indicators
Confidence: Low/Medium. Note the 2025 copyright date. As of late 2024, cards with 2025 dates are often high-quality 'proxy' or fan-made cards, or leaked production samples. Standard font and kerning appear correct for modern TCG.
Flaws to Note
Lower left corner has a minor ding; centering is slightly off-set toward the bottom-left; minor silvering visible on the right vertical edge; surface may have micro-scratches typical of modern holos.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay or specialized Pokémon TCG Facebook groups. TCGPlayer if officially recognized.
Selling Tips
Highlight the 2025 date in the title as it is the most unique feature. Use high-resolution photos of the holofoil to prove it isn't a flat print. Ship in a penny sleeve and rigid top loader.
