# Vileplume #6/147 — Burning Shadows

## Summary

Vileplume from Burning Shadows is a Stage 2 Rare that locked opposing Basics out of attacking, a prison effect that earned real deck-building attention in its Standard format. A mid-tier pull with a loyal Kantō Grass following, and chibi's work appeals to completionists. A $0.86 modelled guide, up 8% over 30 days on 5 copies traded, says bulk, with 394 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: a CGC 10 brings $9.39, 11 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
