Spoink Card Prices & Value

Spoink, the Bounce Pokémon, is a Psychic-type creature introduced in Generation III. It is best known for its unique design and quirky behavior. Standing at 2 feet and weighing in at 67 pounds, Spoink is characterized by its spring-like tail which it uses to bounce continuously. According to the Pokédex, this bouncing is vital to its well-being, as it keeps its heart beating, making Spoink one of the more intriguingly designed Pokémon.

Appearing first in the Hoenn region, Spoink is found in the wilds of Route 114. Its design is thought to be inspired by a pig with a pearl on its head, which it uses to amplify its psychic powers. This pearl, famously depicted in its artwork, is actually a focus for its mental abilities, making Spoink a fascinating blend of whimsy and utility.

In the mainline Pokémon games, Spoink is not a legendary, mythical, or starter Pokémon, but it holds a steady presence as a typical encounter for trainers. Its evolution, Grumpig, is more competitive, but Spoink itself serves as a stepping stone for players exploring psychic-type strategies. Despite its commonality, it is an enduring character in the Pokémon universe, beloved for its whimsical charm.

Spoink has maintained its presence across multiple generations, appearing in various main series games beyond its debut in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Its continued appearance in games like Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, as well as the more recent Pokémon Sword and Shield, ensures it remains familiar to both new and veteran players alike.
