What Is On This Card?

Attack · 10+ damage

Expert Splasher

Water energy. Flip 2 coins. If both of them are heads, this attack does 20 more damage.

An underpowered, pathetic Pokémon. It may jump high on rare occasions but never more than seven feet.

How To Research This Printing

Start with the image, Paldea Evolved set name, and 203 / 193 collector number. Those identifiers matter more than the character name alone because the Pokémon TCG can reuse names across reprints, promos, alternate artwork, and later expansions.

Next, match the finish and condition. A holofoil, reverse holofoil, unlimited, or first-edition listing may carry a different reference price even when it belongs to the same card printing. Grading adds another layer: raw marketplace references should not be treated as prices for PSA, Beckett, or CGC slabs.

Finally, compare the visible update date with current marketplace listings and recent sold results. MonZap gives you a fast catalog reference, set context, and scanner workflow, while the linked marketplaces help you check what is available right now.
