# Horsea #33/97 — Dragon

## Summary

Horsea from the EX Dragon set is a modest uncommon, the sort of pull that filled out a Water-type page without causing a stir. Hajime Kusajima is a long-serving Pokémon TCG illustrator, and Gen I Water types keep a loyal following among nostalgic completionists. At a $4.13 modelled guide, with no copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.10 out of Shrouded Fable; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
