# Bagon (Japanese) #006 — Dragon Selection

## Summary

Bagon is a starter-slot Basic here, a common in every sense that matters. The draw is the Japanese printing's reverse-holo-style foil, which lights the whole surface in rainbow lines. The little blue dragon sprints left in a white helmet against a crimson and blue pattern. Dragon Selection arrived in Japan in January 2012, well before English players got the same Bagon in Dragon Vault that October. The modelled guide sits at $3.89, flat on asks over 30 days on 1 copy traded; no PSA population is on file, and a CGC 10 would fetch about $140 against $45 in grading fees.
