# Gothita #43/98 — Emerging Powers

## Summary

Gothita is a Unova Psychic common from a small Black & White-era set, bulk by rarity and played by almost no one, since its sleep-and-coin-flip attacks were more charm than threat. MAHOU's name on a common is the draw, and Gothita's fan base is real, so completionists keep it quietly wanted. At a $0.35 modelled guide, down 8% over 30 days on 32 copies traded, with only 23 days of inventory on the board, 51% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.17 out of White Flare; no PSA population is on file.
