# Jolteon #26/98 — Ancient Origins

## Summary

Jolteon is one of the best-loved Eeveelutions, a Kantō original that has never lacked fans, and Sanosuke Sakuma is a respected name among illustrators. A mid-tier Rare in Ancient Origins, its Ability made it a curious tech for Lightning-flavored decks, though it stayed more of a binder favorite than a tournament staple. The modelled guide sits at $3.98, down 2% over 30 days on 56 copies traded, with only 30 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
