# Hitmonlee #81/165 — Expedition Base Set

## Summary

Hitmonlee is a Gen I Fighting type with a steady following, and Atsuko Nishida is among the earliest illustrators in the game, so her credit carries weight with Expedition collectors. An uncommon in a set known for its pricey holos, it was a mid-tier pull whose appeal comes from nostalgia and completeness. The modelled guide sits at $8.42, up 12% over 30 days on 23 copies traded, with 610 days of inventory on the board; a CGC 10 brings $172, 20 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it, with original packs long past any pull-rate math.
