# Claydol #24/106 — Emerald

## Summary

Claydol is a Hoenn Stage 1 whose Levitate Poke-Body made it a handy free-retreat pivot for Fighting decks of the EX era, though its coin-flip attack kept it a supporting piece. An Uncommon in Emerald, it was a mid-tier pull, and Yuka Morii's name gives completionists a small extra reason to look. At a $16 modelled guide, with 4 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.09 out of Chaos Rising; a CGC 10 brings $22, 1.3 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
