Trainer and energy cards carry no HP or attack, so they are left out of these counts rather than entered as zero. "Biggest attack" is the largest printed damage number on the card, before any condition the attack text adds.
HP printed on the 39 Altaria cards that carry one. The typical card is 90 HP. Bar length is that HP against the highest in the group.
Half of these cards sit between 80 and 170 HP. The distance between the two ends is what a single average would have hidden.

The largest printed damage number on each of the 39 Altaria cards that print one. The typical card hits for 60. Bar length is that number against the hardest hitter in the group.

| Legal in Expanded today | 30 | 76.9% |
| Cards with an Ability | 18 | 46.2% |
| Cards with a special rule | 13 | 33.3% |
Standard and Expanded are the two tournament formats. A card leaves Standard when its set rotates out, so this share moves each year while the card itself does not change.
Each track is the whole of the 39 Altaria cards on file, so the empty part of a bar is the share the answer does not cover.
The four rows are not slices of one whole — a card can be legal in Standard and carry an Ability at the same time, so the bars are read one at a time against the group.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Legal in Standard today | 17.9% | 7 cards |
| Legal in Expanded today | 76.9% | 30 cards |

Cheapest first. Each card opens its own price page. Prices exclude shipping, which on a card at this level is usually more than the card.
These six together cost $2.15, against $299.99 for the single dearest Altaria card. The two ends of the same group sit 1,154× apart, and both of them are correctly described as "Altaria".
How Altaria compares with the other Pokémon
"Which Pokémon is the most expensive" has three different answers depending on what you measure, so this section keeps them apart.
Ranked by its single dearest card, Altaria is number 73 of 206 Pokémon, on Emerald #90 at $299.99. By card count it is number 42, and by the price of an ordinary card number 75 — three different answers to "is it the most expensive".
