By checklist position it is 40 of 102, which puts it in the middle third of the binder. Its binder neighbours are Porygon (#39) and Seel (#41). 27 Base Set cards print a higher HP than its 60. Raticate was printed without a holofoil panel; 16 of the 102 cards carry one.
Which printing you are holding
Three Base Set printings exist, and a Raticate from each is a different card to price. 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, Raticate would carry one cell per printing — blending three print runs into one median states a price no one paid.
