# Psyduck (Japanese) #001 — Silver Deck Kit

## Summary

Psyduck has been the franchise's patron saint of headaches since the anime's Cerulean City days, and fans love it for that permanent look of befuddled apology. Here it sits on a sandy beach, facing a calm blue sea with a small orange sun low on the horizon. This Japanese Psyduck from the Silver Deck Kit arrived in October 2004, a few weeks ahead of Team Rocket Returns in English, which carries the same card. The modelled guide sits at $25 with 4 copies traded in 30 days; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $1,111 and a 54% observed gem rate putting about $430 of expected profit per submission.
