# Darkrai GX #88/147 — Burning Shadows

## Summary

Darkrai is a Gen IV mythical with a devoted following, and its brooding nightmare lore keeps Darkness collectors loyal. The Ultra Rare GX was a real chase pull in Burning Shadows, and its discard-pile recursion gave it genuine competitive appeal, backing the demand with playability. The modelled guide sits at $10, up 11% over 30 days on 76 copies traded, with only 10 days of inventory on the board; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
