# Vikavolt GX #45/145 — Guardians Rising

## Summary

Vikavolt GX is a Stage 2 from the first Sun & Moon-era expansions, and Alolan bug-and-electric fans still rate the line as one of Gen VII's more underrated designs. As an Ultra Rare it was a real pull from that set, and 5ban Graphics' work gives it a collectible pedigree beyond play. The modelled guide sits at $1.99, up 8% over 30 days on 28 copies traded, with 299 days of inventory on the board; a PSA 10 brings $156, 79 times raw, but a 46% gem rate against $85 of fees makes grading a losing trade, and the slabbed population has not grown in 30 days, slower than 86% of tracked cards.
