CATALOGUED · NOT YET PRICED

No completed public sale for Seel 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.

Identity fetched 2026-09-01 from the pokemontcg.io Base Set checklist; prices and populations are not in that record.

Card type: Pokémon · Water
HP: 60

Its binder neighbours are Raticate (#40) and Wartortle (#42). Seel was printed without a holofoil panel; 16 of the 102 cards carry one. 27 Base Set cards print a higher HP than its 60. By checklist position it is 41 of 102, which puts it in the middle third of the binder.

Which printing you are holding

Base Set shipped in three waves, so "Seel" names three separate market objects. 1st Edition carries the edition stamp and a flat frame; Shadowless drops the stamp and keeps the flat frame; Unlimited restores the drop shadow. Each printing of Seel therefore gets its own cell here, never one blended number.
