# Kingdra #31/147 — Burning Shadows

## Summary

Kingdra is a Johto Water Dragon with a steady following among Gen II fans, and Mitsuhiro Arita, who illustrated the original base-set cards, is a name many collectors seek out. A plain Rare in a Stage 2 line, it sits in the mid-tier of its set, a solid pull but no chase. The modelled guide sits at $0.64, up 7% over 30 days on 19 copies traded, with 515 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.
