# Golisopod GX #17/147 — Burning Shadows

## Summary

Golisopod GX was a real tournament threat in its Standard format, with First Impression's bench-to-active burst and the Crossing Cut GX pivot defining Grass aggression. Alola's armored bug is a fan favorite, 5ban Graphics is a prolific modern illustrator, and an Ultra Rare GX meant a genuine pull. The modelled guide sits at $1.73, down 7% over 30 days on 89 copies traded, with 87 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $35, 20 times raw, but a 32% gem rate against $65 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
