Its interest score of 46 out of 100 is driven most by unusual move — sudden drop. Blue bars pushed the score up, red bars pulled it down. The ingredients are weighted by how well each one has actually predicted price moves in this market, measured on your own price history rather than assumed.

What the numbers say

Is this card interesting right now?

Ordinary - 46 out of 100

It ranks above 47% of the cards we track. The score describes the conditions around the card today - how sellers are pricing it, how it is trending, how steadily it trades. It is not a prediction, and it says nothing about whether you will enjoy owning the card.

Why is it interesting?

Sudden drop and very steady price

The recent drop is far larger than this card's normal movement. The price moves in small, calm steps rather than lurching around.

Is it becoming more popular?

No - losing ground

Compared with the Pokemon market as a whole, so a rising tide does not count as popularity. In this market these trends have tended to keep going rather than reverse.

Past month-4.7%
Past 2 months-6.2%
Past 4 months-1.5%

Is it expensive or cheap?

$104.44 - expensive for its set

At $104.44 it is one of the priciest cards in its set - number 1 of 399 by price. Against other Secret Rare cards it sits at the 77th percentile - toward the top. It is at or near its highest price of the past year.

What makes this card unusual?

Secret Rare - uncommon tier, the most valuable card in its set

623 tracked cards share this rarity (1% of the catalogue). It is the single most expensive card of the 399 we track in this set. This is the Holofoil printing, which is priced as a completely separate market from the other printings of the same artwork.

Could you actually buy or sell it?

Yes, with patience

The price changed in 45% of our checks over the past year across 365 observations. TCGplayer's market price only updates when a copy sells, so a low figure means the price shown may be stale and any trend reading is built on very few real sales.

Is grading worth considering?

Worth a look

At $104.44 raw, the roughly $22.00 fee is about 21% of the card's value, so a strong grade can pay for itself. It hinges entirely on condition - centering, edges and surface. This is a rule of thumb from the card's raw price, age and price stability. We track raw ungraded prices only - no graded sales and no population data - so this cannot tell you what a PSA 10 of this card is worth. Check a graded price guide before spending money.

What happens next (60 days)

Expected to lag the market

An estimated 38% chance of beating the typical tracked card over the next 60 days, by around -0.1% on a middling outcome.

Assumes the market as a whole drifts +4.0% over 60 days, its recent average. That part is an assumption carried forward, not a prediction — the 'vs market' figure above does not depend on it.

Prices here are TCGplayer's market price, which is an average of recent sales and lags a real move by a few weeks. Part of any short-term forecast is that lag catching up — visible in the chart, but not something you can buy at.
