# Vibrava #22/97 — Dragon

## Summary

Vibrava is the awkward middle step of the Trapinch line, loved mostly because Flygon, its Hoenn finale, is a dragon people actually want to own. Kagemaru Himeno was among the early artists on the original card game, so his name carries nostalgia, and a Rare in this set sat a clear tier above bulk. At a $1.75 modelled guide, up 5% over 30 days on 7 copies traded, with 313 days of inventory on the board, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.06 out of Phantasmal Flames; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
