# Tyranitar #87/168 — Celestial Storm

## Summary

Tyranitar has been a Johto favorite since the Silver and Gold days, a pseudo-legendary whose Rock and Dark typing and imposing silhouette keep fans loyal. As a plain Rare in a Sun & Moon set, it was a mid-tier pull, so demand rests on affection more than scarcity. The modelled guide sits at $8.09, up 1% over 30 days on 22 copies traded, with 463 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $72, 8.9 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
