# Flabébé #83/131 — Forbidden Light

## Summary

Flabébé is a bulk common from Forbidden Light, the sort of pull that fills a binder slot rather than anchoring a pack. Its Ability to evolve on a going-second first turn was a nice touch for Fairy decks, and Kalos Pokémon keep a quiet fanbase among completionists. At a $0.42 modelled guide, down 11% over 30 days on 43 copies traded, with 570 days of inventory on the board, 55% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.19 out of Twilight Masquerade; PSA has slabbed 29 of these and 15 are 10s, a 52% gem rate, but no graded market has formed to price the slab.
