# Slaking (Japanese) #059 — Clash of the Blue Sky

## Summary

Japanese collectors had Slaking in July 2004, about seven months before the English Deoxys set carried the same card in February 2005. That head start suits a card built around the Pokémon's famous laziness: the huge, sleepy bruiser sprawls on a mossy green forest floor with its mouth wide open mid-yawn. This Japanese Clash of the Blue Sky holo rare sits in the set's mid-tier, a pull worth having without being a chase slot. The modelled guide sits at $3.00, flat on asks over 7 days on 2 copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file.
