# Crustle #052/086 — Black Bolt

## Summary

Crustle is a Unova Rock-Bug that fans warm to for its stubborn boulder-on-the-back charm, and Black Bolt is a set steeped in Gen V nostalgia. Tetsu Kayama's name adds a little illustrator interest, but as a plain Uncommon this is a mid-tier pull and not a chase slot. A $0.14 modelled guide, down 7% over 30 days on 23 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,657 days of inventory sitting on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
