# Electabuzz #81/130 — Diamond & Pearl

## Summary

Electabuzz is a bulk common from the opening Diamond & Pearl set, filler in a pull rather than a reason to open a pack. Gen I Electric types keep a loyal following, and Kagemaru Himeno, one of the franchise's longest-serving illustrators, gives collectors a quiet reason to tuck one into a binder. The modelled guide sits at $0.81, up 8% over 30 days on 14 copies traded, with 260 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $23, 28 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
