# Bug Catcher #226/264 — Fusion Strike

## Summary

Bug Catcher is a coin-flip draw Supporter, a modest effect that never threatened the staple Supporters of its format, so the demand here is about the trainer's charm rather than play. Yuu Nishida is a respected name among illustrators, and a number this deep in the set points to an alternate-art pull. A $0.13 modelled guide, up 18% over 30 days on 48 copies traded, says bulk, with 1,323 days of inventory on the board, and the economics stop there: no PSA population is on file.
