# Gigalith - 53/98 (Prerelease) #053 — BW Black Star Promos

## Summary

Gigalith is a Unova-native Rock-type Stage 2, and its attacks suggest a Fighting-support deck that never became a staple in a format dominated by faster threats. The Prerelease stamp is the real draw: these were handed out at launch events in limited numbers, so supply stays modest and collectors of the era's promos keep asking. The modelled guide sits at $11 with no copies traded in 30 days; no PSA population is on file.
