# Palkia EX #31/122 — BREAKpoint

## Summary

Palkia EX carries the Sinnoh space-dragon's lasting popularity, and its Aqua Turbo energy acceleration made it a real Water-deck option during the XY years rather than just a shelf piece. As an Ultra Rare in BREAKpoint, it was a proper hit pull, with Eske Yoshinob handling the illustration. The modelled guide sits at $6.89, up 4% over 30 days on 45 copies traded, with 313 days of inventory on the board; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $1,500 and a 18% observed gem rate putting about $110 of expected profit per submission.
