ABOUT THIS CARD

Espeon is a rare holo Pokemon card from Pokemon Neo Discovery, card 1 of 75, released June 1, 2001 in the Neo series. The illustration is by Atsuko Nishida.

VALUE

What is Espeon #1 from Neo Discovery worth?

Two different numbers answer this, and they are not interchangeable. Raw/ungraded: a loose, ungraded copy of Espeon #1 (Neo Discovery) carries a market reference of $237.50 USD for the 1stEditionHolofoil printing (TCGplayer market price, as of 2026-09-11). Graded slabs: a graded example is priced per grading company and per grade and can sit far above that raw figure - our own graded marks for this card are charted and tabled below, per grader and grade. Both are references, not offers.
