No completed public sale for Clefairy has been verified into our ledger yet. Until eight verified sales for a single printing-and-grade cell are recorded, there is nothing to take a median of, so this page prints no figure. No estimate, no range, no placeholder.

Its binder neighbours are Charizard (#4) and Gyarados (#6). Clefairy is one of 16 cards printed with a holofoil panel in this set. 48 Base Set cards print a higher HP than its 40. By checklist position it is 5 of 102, which puts it in the first third of the binder.
Which printing you are holding
Base Set shipped in three waves, so "Clefairy" names three separate market objects. 1st Edition carries the edition stamp and a flat frame; Shadowless drops the stamp and keeps the flat frame; Unlimited restores the drop shadow. Priced, Clefairy would carry one cell per printing — blending three print runs into one median states a price no one paid.
