# Azumarill #18/130 — Diamond & Pearl

## Summary

Azumarill is a Johto favorite with a loyal following, and a Diamond & Pearl Rare Stage 1 like this sat a rung above the commons without ever being a chase pull. Naoyo Kimura is a respected Pokémon TCG illustrator, and the Azurill-gated paralysis was a quirky nod to the Baby line. At a $3.29 modelled guide, with 2 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.10 out of Stellar Crown; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
