# Horsea #84/147 — Aquapolis

## Summary

Horsea is a bulk common from the tail end of the WOTC run, a basic Bubble-and-coin-flip attacker that served as evolution fodder for Seadra and Kingdra rather than a pull anyone chased. Its appeal is quiet: Gen I Water nostalgia and Aquapolis completionists who want the whole set. At a $9.75 modelled guide, up 2% over 30 days on 36 copies traded, with 485 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.08 out of Shrouded Fable; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
