# Excadrill #57/98 — Emerging Powers

## Summary

Excadrill is the Unova Pokémon that Gen V fans still call a favorite, thanks to its Ground/Steel typing and a long career as a top threat in the video games. Emerging Powers was a small set, so a plain Rare here is a modest pull with niche collector interest. A $0.68 modelled guide, down 3% over 30 days on 3 copies traded, says bulk, with 303 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file, and a PSA 10 guides at about $42 against $85 in grading fees, so the only money in this card is finishing a set, not a slab.
