# Plusle #39/106 — Emerald

## Summary

Plusle is a Hoenn cheerleader with a devoted following, partly because it pairs so naturally with Minun and sells best as half of a set. As an Uncommon in an EX-era set, it was a mid-tier pull that rounded out binders, with Naoyo Kimura's name adding a small illustrator draw. The modelled guide sits at $5.29 with 3 copies traded in 30 days; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
