Alakazam

Jigglypuff

Jigglypuff cards from the first edition might not worth much, couple of bucks maybe. The Wigglytuff, which is the evolved version of Jigglypuff, isn’t worth that much either. Holographic 1st edition cards range from $5 to $18.

Krabby

Krabby is a River Crab that can evolve into Kingler, a pincer. Generally First editions of this card are sold for a couple of bucks

Search for little symbols on your cards. One symbol to watch for is a gold foil “W” stamp. These cards were reprints, but only a limited amount was made. Reprints generally aren’t worth anything, but your cards may still be valuable.
