# Chesnaught #11/162 — BREAKthrough

## Summary

Chesnaught is the sturdy Kalos starter's final form, and Grass starters from that generation keep a loyal fanbase among those who picked Chespin. Mitsuhiro Arita, who illustrated the original Base Set Charizard, lends this plain Rare the quiet prestige of a veteran hand, though it was a mid-tier pull. The modelled guide sits at $1.45, up 1% over 30 days on 7 copies traded, with 333 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 guides at $34, 23 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
