Taillow cards
Every Taillow card we could find. The priciest one we price is the Destined Rivals one at $1.13.
- The Tiny Swallow Pokemon. Taillow is #276 in the National Pokedex.
- First English card. Ruby & Sapphire, July 1, 2003.
- Types. Normal and Flying in the video games. A card only ever carries one type, so which one it is printed as depends on the card.
- Generation 3, Hoenn. One of the 135 species that generation introduced.
- Size. 0.3m (1ft 0in) and 2.3kg (5.1lb).
- Capture rate 200 of 255. Higher is easier to catch. This is about as easy to catch as the games get.

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.

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.
