Other Verified Duskull Prints

The table shows eight of the other Duskull prints the database lists. The second AR entry is SV6a 068/064, illustrated by James Turner; the same set also holds a Common at 018/064, illustrated by IKEDA Saki.

Duskull 068/064 AR — SV6a
Duskull C 018/064, SV6a, illustrated by IKEDA Saki

The remaining prints in the table are Commons from S9 (045/100), S4 (043/100), SM11a (023/064), SM3N (019/051), XY2 (033/080) and BW6-Bc (024/059). They span several game eras, with a different illustrator credited on each. We list only the s12a AR as a PSA 10; the other prints here are for reference when you compare artwork.

Set by set, the table shows how the same Pokemon name is printed across eras: the SV6a pair puts an AR and a Common side by side, while S9, S4, SM11a, SM3N, XY2 and BW6-Bc each show one Common entry. When you compare a graded copy against artwork, the number and set code printed on the card are what tie it to a row in this table.

The evolution line as the database prints it on the listed card runs ヨマワル, then サマヨール, then ヨノワール. The listed card sits at the first stage, and its stage box reads Basic.

Rarity Icon and Regulation Mark

The database shows an AR (AR) icon for the listed print. Our Japanese Pokemon card rarities guide lays out how AR sits among the other lettered tiers.

Reading the listed card from top to bottom, the stage box shows Basic, the HP figure is 60, and the type is Psychic. The attack line pairs a single Psychic energy symbol with the name まどわす and the damage figure 10. The number reads 203/172, so the first figure is higher than the set total printed after the slash. Below the attack sit the weakness, resistance and retreat boxes, followed by the illustrator credit and the regulation mark.

The regulation mark on the listed card is F. The official regulation page lists H, I and J as the marks in the current Standard regulation, so mark F is not in the current Standard regulation.
