# Team Rocket's Crobat ex #217/182 — Destined Rivals

## Summary

Crobat has been a Johto favorite since Gold and Silver, and the Team Rocket ex line taps that affection directly. Its Biting Spree damage-counter spread suits Darkness decks built around finishing off wounded targets, while an Ultra Rare slot in Destined Rivals keeps it a notable, not chase-tier, pull. At a $1.92 modelled guide, down 19% over 30 days on 410 copies traded, with 15 days of inventory on the board, 71% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.55 out of Destined Rivals; a CGC 10 brings $36, 19 times raw, but a 69% gem rate against $45 of fees makes grading a losing trade.
