# Rapidash #26/165 — Expedition Base Set

## Summary

Rapidash is a Gen I Fire type with a steady fan base, and Expedition was the first set to put e-Reader-era holo foils into a play-ready format. As a Holo Rare it sat in the chase tier of its set, though its modest attacks kept it a collector's pull rather than a tournament staple. At a $133 modelled guide, with 3 copies traded in 30 days, this printing is almost entirely collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.12 out of Destined Rivals; a CGC 10 brings $750, 5.6 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
