Is Voltorb 51/149 worth anything?
Copies of this card currently trade at around €0.14 on Cardmarket, assuming near-mint condition. The price you'll get in the UK depends mostly on condition: check the corners, edges and surface, and whether the artwork is well centred.

To be sure you have the right card, match the set symbol and the number 51/149 printed at the bottom of your card. There are 40 different Voltorb cards, so the number matters. Then compare completed eBay UK listings — sold prices, not asking prices — for copies in similar condition.
