CATALOGUED · NOT YET PRICED
No completed public sale for Electabuzz has been verified into our ledger yet. Until eight verified sales for a single printing-and-grade cell are recorded, there is nothing to take a median of, so this page prints no figure. No estimate, no range, no placeholder.

21 Base Set cards print a higher HP than its 70. Its binder neighbours are Dugtrio (#19) and Electrode (#21). Electabuzz was printed without a holofoil panel; 16 of the 102 cards carry one. By checklist position it is 20 of 102, which puts it in the first third of the binder.
Which printing you are holding
Which Electabuzz you are holding is decided before grade is: the set ran in three printings. 1st Edition carries the edition stamp and a flat frame; Shadowless drops the stamp and keeps the flat frame; Unlimited restores the drop shadow. So Electabuzz will be priced three times over, not once: a blended median across the three would be a figure nobody paid.
