# Goodra #197/264 — Fusion Strike

## Summary

Goodra has been a Kalos favorite since its debut, a gentle Dragon whose soft, affectionate image earned it a devoted following well outside competitive circles. Nagomi Nijo is a respected illustrator, but this Rare sits mid-tier in its set, so demand comes from Goodra loyalists rather than chase hunters. A $0.29 modelled guide with no copies traded in 30 days says bulk, and the economics stop there: a PSA 10 guides at $32, 110 times raw, but PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
