  • First English card. BW Black Star Promos, March 1, 2011.

  • Size. 1.5m (4ft 11in) and 82.5kg (182lb).

Priciest first

Every Genesect we price

5 of the 43 printings we can name are in sets we hold prices for. Tap a card to see it full size.

Prices are pricecharting.com's price guide value for an ungraded copy, read August 31, 2026. A guide value is computed across the sales PriceCharting tracks, which is a wider set of venues than any one marketplace. 2 cards of the 5,396 priced here are not listed by PriceCharting and keep their TCGplayer market price via TCGdex instead. Where a card comes as a normal, holo and reverse holo at different prices, the figure is the priciest of them. Prices move daily, so treat these as a ballpark. Search every card.

Evolution

Genesect does not evolve

It has no pre-evolution and nothing it becomes, which puts it with the 200 other species in the Pokedex that stand alone. The evolution chart lists every one of them.

In the video games

What beats Genesect

Damage taken by a Bug / Steel Pokemon, computed from the type chart. Everything not listed does normal damage.

  • x4Fire, double weakness
  • ½xNormal, Ice, Psychic, Bug, Dragon, Steel and Fairy
  • ¼xGrass, double resistance
  • 0xPoison, no effect at all

This is the video game chart, not the card game. The Pokemon TCG has eleven types and no type chart at all: Weakness and Resistance are printed on each individual card, and two cards of the same Pokemon can print different ones. What the card actually says. Type relations from pokeapi.co, read August 17, 2026.
