# Entei-EX #13/108 — Dark Explorers

## Summary

Entei-EX is the Johto beast fans still rally behind, the volcano-born Fire legend of Gold and Silver, and as a Black & White-era EX it carried real tournament weight in Fire decks. Shizurow's name on the art adds a quiet draw for collectors tracking that illustrator. The modelled guide sits at $50 with 7 copies traded in 30 days; a PSA 10 guides at $92, 1.9 times raw, but a 14% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
