# Altaria #1/107 — Deoxys

## Summary

Altaria is a Hoenn Dragon/Flying favorite, and its cloud-winged Swablu line has a loyal following among Gen III fans. Safeguard shut out opposing Pokémon-ex in an era dominated by them, so this holo Rare mattered in play, not just on the shelf. At a $104 modelled guide, with 5 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.17 out of Surging Sparks; a CGC 10 brings $395, 3.8 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
