Pupitar cards
Every Pupitar card we could find. The priciest one we price is the Pokémon GO one at $0.76, and the cheapest is $0.25.
- The Hard Shell Pokemon. Pupitar is #247 in the National Pokedex.
- First English card. Neo Discovery, June 1, 2001.
- Types. Rock and Ground in the video games. A card only ever carries one type, so which one it is printed as depends on the card.

- Size. 1.2m (3ft 11in) and 152.0kg (335lb).
- Capture rate 45 of 255. Higher is easier to catch. This one sits in the middle.

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.

In the video games
What beats Pupitar
Damage taken by a Rock / Ground Pokemon, computed from the type chart. Everything not listed does normal damage.
- x4Water and Grass, double weakness
- x2Ice, Fighting, Ground and Steel
- ½xNormal, Fire, Flying and Rock
- ¼xPoison, double resistance
- 0xElectric, 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.
