# Shinx (Japanese) #140 — SI: Start Deck 100

## Summary

Shinx has a loyal following among Sinnoh fans for its sparky cub charm, and its electric-type pull has made it a favourite starter-line pick since Diamond and Pearl. In this Japanese card, the little blue cub sprawls across a wooden table, nose deep in an open magazine beside a cookie and a mug, all against a yellow border. It came out in December 2021 in the Start Deck 100 set, a full year before Crown Zenith carried the English Shinx, and as a common it is a friendly, low-stakes pickup. The modelled guide sits at $8.40 with no copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 guides at about $100 against $65 in grading fees.
