# Sunflora #8/236 — Cosmic Eclipse

## Summary

Sunflora is a gentle Johto oddity, and Sunkern's evolution has a loyal following among players who enjoy the Pokémon the franchise rarely spotlights. Solar Power's energy-cost trick fit Grass and Fire decks of its day, but as a mid-tier Rare it was never a chase slot. A $0.38 modelled guide with 4 copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $56, 147 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, and the same card plays for $0.16 out of Twilight Masquerade.
