# Kingdra #H14 — Aquapolis

## Summary

Kingdra's Water Cyclone made it a real engine for Water decks in the e-Card era, letting players shuffle energy around the bench freely, which is why it earned deck-list respect beyond its holo foil. Atsuko Nishida, the original Pokémon card artist, adds weight for illustrator-minded collectors, and Aquapolis holos draw steady Johto fans. The modelled guide sits at $214 with 2 copies traded in 30 days; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $17,700 and a 8% observed gem rate putting about $1,000 of expected profit per submission, and the slabbed population has not grown in 30 days, slower than 86% of tracked cards.
