# Lucario V #027/073 — Champion's Path

## Summary

Lucario has been a fan favorite since Sinnoh, and Akira Egawa's name on a V adds weight for collectors who follow illustrators. In Champion's Path this was a mid-tier pull rather than the chase slot, so demand rests on the Pokémon's loyal following more than scarcity. The modelled guide sits at $3.64, up 1% over 30 days on 156 copies traded, with 49 days of inventory on the board; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $140 and a 56% observed gem rate putting about $5.60 of expected profit per submission.
