# Gloom #49/147 — Aquapolis

## Summary

Gloom in Aquapolis is a mid-stage Gen I Grass type with a quirky Poke-Body that trims Resistance, a niche trick rather than a format-defining one. As an uncommon in the final WOTC-era set, it is filler for most pulls, with demand coming from Kyoko Umemoto's illustration credit and Kanto nostalgia. At a $42 modelled guide, down 1% over 30 days on 11 copies traded, with 269 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.11 out of Phantasmal Flames; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
