# Dragonite ex #90/97 — Dragon

## Summary

Dragonite ex from the Dragon set carries a Gen I favorite with a huge fan following, and the old ex format meant a Rare slot with real bulk and prize-giving risk behind it.

The sold median sits at $1,008 with 41 copies traded in 30 days; the slab is the real edge, with PSA 10s at $43,920 and a 4% observed gem rate putting about $2,200 of expected profit per submission.
