# Bayleef #35/123 — HeartGold SoulSilver

## Summary

Bayleef is an Uncommon middle stage, the sort of pull that fills the gap between a starter's common and its rare final form. Johto's Chikorita line has devoted fans, but the middle evolution rarely gets the spotlight, so demand is gentle and mostly belongs to Shin Nagasawa and HGSS completionists. At a $2.00 modelled guide, with no copies traded in 30 days, 90% of this printing’s price is collector premium, since the same card plays for $0.21 out of Ascended Heroes; PSA does not split this card’s population by finish, so no gem rate can be read for it.
