# Pidgeot #59/165 — Expedition Base Set

## Summary

Pidgeot is a Gen I evolution with a steady fanbase, and this Expedition printing sits in the transition from the Wizards era to the e-Card age, a tougher, thinner-pulled set than the Base days. Komiya's name adds quiet appeal, though a mid-tier Rare was never the chase slot. The modelled guide sits at $28, up 3% over 30 days on 7 copies traded, with 121 days of inventory on the board; 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.
