# Tropius #27/107 — Deoxys

## Summary

Tropius is a Hoenn oddball with a loyal following, the gentle fruit-bearing dinosaur that fans adopt for its sheer personality. Tropical Motion was a niche Poke-Body that rarely made tournament lists, so a Rare here is about Miki Tanaka's name and Gen III nostalgia, not play. At a $1.62 modelled guide, up 1% over 30 days on 5 copies traded, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.12 out of Pitch Black; a CGC 10 brings $28, 17 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
