# M Tyranitar EX #92/98 — Ancient Origins

## Summary

Tyranitar has held fan loyalty since Gold and Silver, and its Mega form is a big part of why Ancient Origins is remembered fondly. As an Ultra Rare it sat in the set's upper chase tier, and its damage-counter attack gave Darkness decks a genuine finisher. The modelled guide sits at $115, up 1% over 30 days on 41 copies traded, with only 8 days of inventory on the board; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $1,299 and a 26% observed gem rate putting about $180 of expected profit per submission.
