# Serperior ex #003/086 — Black Bolt

## Summary

Serperior is the Unova starter that fans keep asking to see in the spotlight, and the Black Bolt set leans on that Gen V nostalgia. A Double rare ex is the set's standard mid-tier pull, so demand comes from players and Unova loyalists rather than from scarcity. The modelled guide sits at $0.51, up 4% over 30 days on 701 copies traded, with only 23 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $38, 74 times raw, but a 40% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the slabbed population is growing 1% a month, faster than 87% of tracked cards.
