# Slurpuff #236/217 — Ascended Heroes

## Summary

Slurpuff is a Gen VI Fairy favorite whose cream-puff charm keeps a steady fanbase, and Illustration rares are where collectors look for that kind of character-driven appeal. It's a mid-tier chase pull in Ascended Heroes: sought for the Pokémon and the treatment, not for tournament play. At a $6.71 sold median, down 5% over 30 days on 599 copies traded, with only 4 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.18 out of Ascended Heroes; a CGC 10 brings $41, 6.1 times raw, but a 76% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
