Crawdaunt · Brilliant Stars, what to know.
About the Crawdaunt card
Crawdaunt sits at #33 in Brilliant Stars, released in February 2022. Brilliant Stars is part of the modern English Pokémon TCG era and uses the standard contemporary card frame and rarity tiers. Illustration by Shibuzoh.. In the games, Crawdaunt evolves from Corphish, which makes it a late-stage card in the line.
The flavor text on the card reads: "A rough customer that wildly flails its giant claws. It is said to be extremely hard to raise." Pokédex entries from this era are short and often quirky, written by the original Japanese localization team for a specific stat-block layout that no longer exists in modern cards.
Print variants and how to spot them
Brilliant Stars shipped in Holofoil, Reverse Holo, V, VSTAR, Trainer Gallery, and Rainbow Rare. Trainer Gallery cards are numbered TG01 onwards as a parallel subset. The Charizard VSTAR Rainbow Rare is the headline chase.
Grading and condition
Modern Uncommons grade cleanly. The secondary market for graded modern Uncommons is mostly set-completionist driven; standalone demand is thin. Useful as a first grading submission to learn the process.
If you are buying this card
Raw copies of this card are inexpensive enough that the grading math rarely justifies submission unless you have a clearly pack-fresh example. For set completionists, picking up a clean raw copy and sleeving it is the practical move.
