# Marshtomp #36/106 — Emerald

## Summary

Marshtomp is the awkward middle step of the Hoenn starter line, and Mudkip's popularity gives it quiet reflected demand among Gen III fans. An Uncommon in Emerald was an ordinary pull, so interest rests on Atsuko Nishida, a founding Pokémon artist, plus Hoenn nostalgia. The modelled guide sits at $1.82, up 12% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, with 546 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $70, 38 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
