# Herdier #87/108 — Dark Explorers

## Summary

Herdier is a mid-evolution Normal dog from Unova, a Pokémon more often played as a bridge to Stoutland than loved on its own, and Dark Explorers filled uncommon slots with plenty like it. Naoyo Kimura's name gives it modest completist appeal, but demand stays gentle. A $0.46 modelled guide, up 2% over 30 days on 4 copies traded, says bulk, with 260 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and the same card plays for $0.12 out of White Flare.
